To tell you the truth, I hacked my PSP to see what's the big deal about CFW. and man it was great. Played GBA games SNES and Gensis games.

I modded my PS2 in the past, and ended up playing very little of a lot of games. I'm also more of a nerd now, so I want to collect and keep all the good games.

What does CFW stand for? I'm probably going to soft mod my PSP too, for the same reason as you. Mostly games I own though, I have Japanese versions of unloclaized Fire Emblem games, and I want to play them, but Fire Emblem for me is a game which should play played on a handheld. I also want to try Mother 3 before I import a Japanese copy. I hear GBA games play well on the PSP because the screen resolutions are directly scalable, so GBA games when strectched, don't blur.


CFW stands for Costum Firmware. you'll need some special battery and memory card.

Actually, someone showed me a way to "soft mod" the PSP. This way it's stock, but I can load the modded firmware, and ta da!

I only really want it for Fire Emblem 7 and Mother 3, if I have to buy something, I'd rather buy the EZ-Flash Drive for GBA

softmodded my psp a few weeks ago. it didnt take long at all (about 10min). and now they have it because you dont need to buy anything (pandora battery).

as for playing gba games, it works great! im actually really into the fire emblem game for gameboy advence
