A new modification called the PSP Placeable has been developed, which transforms the PlayStation Portable (PSP) into a standard game console setup, complete with Bluetooth controller support.

So this thing works on 1000 and 2000 series PSPs too? That’s awesome.

Only 2k and 3k units are supported, as far as i’m informed

This is a really nice kit. Easy to assemble, minimal soldering. Great for old PSPs with broken screens.

I have a 3000 series that had a broken screen. I fixed the screen, but now it won’t hold a charge. I bet this would be a good solution for it.

this is really dope! My psp was the best handheld I’ve ever had (and I’ve got a steam deck)

it could do sooooo much once it was hacked, I remember being in 2006 and switching between making calls and sending texts from skype, to emulating gameboy color, to trying all the homebrew games written in lua, to watching my tv shows, to playing AAA games, to browsing the web, all on one device that fit in my pocket. It made my friend’s razor phones look outdated. It was a smart phone before smart phones.

very happy to see it still getting some love
