any thoughts of the pc engine/turbographx soldier compilation? great port or waste of money as emulator does similar (probably a few minor faults), seems to be decent, shame seems to be only on Japanese umd and not download ( I have psp go, meaning, I can use dual shock 2) , I also have 720p full screen psp upscaler ( seems to be very quality, better than slightly blurry ps3 pc engine ports), not as good as xrgb though

shame there is no pc genjin/bonk compilation? suppose pc genjin remake on ps2/gamecube makes up for this

I own it and thought it was really well done. The only issue I had with it was it was weird seeing that screen ratio on the PSP. Good for on-the-go, though.

I have to agree! it looks great! I was able to pick it up locally for a good price. really love playing star parodius with the pcengine system! very cool of Hudson to include that game but all the games are great

Can't you play it on your TV from an earlier model psp using a component cable or is that not a thing? What are psps?

There's this thing called the internet where you can download isos......  :mrgreen:

I do that with many of my psp games (for playing on the Go), and I don't feel the least bit guilty or bad about it, seeing as the real UMD is sitting on the shelf.

I'm pretty much of the same mindset as well.  I love using the Go as a consolized PSP, hopefully they are able to consistently get hacking in place for the PS TV as well so I can do the same with my PSP games on there.

I have searched and tried to download the iso/cso many times, for the past 5 years, so far, none of them worked, however, 95% of the other iso/cso work on my psp1000/3000 and psp go

psp3000 via component video works to TV, but the main advantage of psp go is that you can use dual shock 3 controller ( thus, wireless and it's a much better controller, than the psp default d pad)

http://www.gametech.co.jp/products/catalog/8861/8861_1.html

I am using this 720p and full screen converter, the quality is excellent, only a xrgb is better, tried and compared to ps3 playing ps1 games and my psp playing ps1, the psp was much better ( uses upscaling rather than ps3 pixel filtering)

There are a few on amazon which are very similar, but they don't provide the adaptor to use on psp go, while the Japanese one ( gametech brand) comes with the psp go adaptor

And load times are better without using UMDs.

I have that cable for my psp. It's not the greatest though. Quality isn't hot and it has a weird sizing issue.
