How to Mod a PSP 2000
The Sony PlayStation Portable is a video game console that can be modded using custom firmware. Custom firmware can be installed on all versions of the PSP, including the PSP 2000. Firmware essentially is the operating system for the PSP, and it can be customized by independent developers. Once custom firmware is installed, you can do things like back up entire games on your memory stick and play them from there.
