My PSP has died

Today, my PSP has died. I went to get it so I could play some Project Diva Extend, and it didn't turn on. Alright, I thought, it probably ran out of battery, I haven't charged it for three weeks and it was pretty low last time I checked. So, I popped it to charge. The light didn't turn on. So, I removed the battery, plugged my cable in, and inserted it. Then, it started charging. However, it still didn't turn on. I tried to turn it on with the AC adapter connected and without the battery. That would tell me if the battery was the problem. The light turned on, and the screen turned on as well (although it stood black), and it shutdown after 2 seconds or so. It's most likely a hardware fault.

Today, the PSP that made me find [HACK] is finally dead. I most certainly will be getting a new one. It was/is a great handheld.

All hail the PSP.

RIP your PSP, lol

That sucks. Thankfully both of mine have turned out to be working 100%, unlike what I thought. Turns out my wifi settings prevented the PSPs from connecting to the internet. It's just a shame it took me so long to realize this. I even recall being told that but I didn't do anything about it when I should have.

:/ Now I'm playing swes on PC using a controller :D, Project Diva games are harder because of the input delay.

lol You might've told me that, I do recall someone telling me that before.

I've gone through like... 4 PSP's and I'm on my 5th and 6th now, both of them working fine.
PSP 3000's Piano black and silver, even the same revision of the motherboard which is 03g, haha.

And honestly, it's a pain in the ass to get a PSP on the internet because they don't support WPA2, and mine don't seem to support WPA either... Which is what 99% of all wifi routers use, and some don't even allow WEP! So I just have a second router daisy chained to my main one and it runs on WEP and is hidden. That way my PSP can go online. But it's of little use, all of the online is pretty much dead. :(

I currently have 4 PSPs, all of them "work" but only 2 read UMDs.

mine had a pretty messed UMD drive, it wouldn't read UMDs unless it was on a specific position, so I dumped them all.

wow you didn't save the swes disc?


lol soz Godz I assumed everyone knew

Well, I do have my SWES disc, but... I play with a US ISO cuz.... when I first joined, a guy here pointed me to a site with codes for the EUR version, (because there were 2 or smth), and those codes worked. Welp, my 8GB Sandisk card broke, and I lost all my codes. When I rejoined (already on forumotion), I started using the US version cuz everyone here had codes for that one. HACK was also the ppl who told me to use NitePR codes instead of CWCheat. The guy who sent me the EUR codes also asked me if I had NitePR or anything like it, I ended up using Darkfrost as it was on my plugin database on PC already. And, cooler name. so I kept it.

Coderpr>darkfrost>tempar>nitepr>

Darkfrost has a cooler name though

Yeah..but its not as simple to use as coderpr :P

It isn't ? O.o I never used anything other than Darkfrost and CWCheat lmao

I found coderpr really easy

Never rly tried it.

I really miss playing online with all of you guys on SWES. Miss seeing all of the creative hacks dan had playing Capture the flag man SUCH GREAT TIMES!

How is anything better than Tempar?
Over 100%+ faster searches, don't have to wait 6 hours to search memory
Easier to use.

Only issue I had is that you can't just convert your library from NitePR to TempAR, you gotta convert snippits of it.

I forgot the other advantages, but I remember specifically that Tempar was better to use. And CWCheat is trash, good thing it wasnt in your list lol

CWcheat made the game crash half the time for me lmao

You didn't use nitePR or anything like that the game never crashed and it was so easy to install and put new hacks into the file for the game to run on lol.

I did. Darkfrost. Which is why I stopped using CWCheats.

Hum.... My PSP randomly came back to life. Lol
