Step-by-Step How to Mod a PSP With Memory Stick

When it comes to portable gaming, people usually think of the Nintendo DS, the Apple iPhone and the Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP). The PSP is one of the more advanced portable gaming systems, as it has the largest screen, strongest processor and the perhaps the largest upside when it comes to homebrew gaming. Homebrew games are created by independent developers. In order to play homebrew games on the PSP, custom firmware needs to be installed on the PSP. This is done with a service tool battery (Pandora) and a Magic Memory Stick.
