Thanks! I was trying to download from this entry in the OP:

If it does could you do a little writeup like the other ones in the op that includes any necessary advice and a download link to the latest working version so I ca add it to the op. This is really what I'd like from this thread, for people to share which homebrew work with this exploit and whether they're worth checking out.

Correct. The author of the exploit just recently made a post recommending it. Testing is now being focused on this firmware revision so this will be the best way to increase compatibility.

Have you created a new folder (named "NES" or whatever you like" for the EBOOT.PBP)?

You're the second person to have issues with SNES9X from that download link so I'm going to create a download link for my install to guarantee that it works for everyone. What does everyone recommend as the best hosting site these days? Is mega upload fine and do the download links stick around?
Edit: Full speed Neo Geo added to the op!

The thing that allows you to play your psp through your computer is THIS
I really would like to be able to use that in order to play MGS: Peace Walker with a dualshock 3. I dont think it would work with HBL.
Got HBL running on my MGSeacewalker big boss 3001 psp.
Works really well. Cave Story looks phenomenal on the psp! wow.
There probably isnt a way to convert a pc Cave Story save to work on the psp, is there?

Going to see what Firmware Ys Seven requires before I deal with this, but I imagine workarounds will be rushed to account for any major game releases like usual. Still really neat.

The flaw with HBL is that you have to load the applications from the Patapon 2 demo.
Still, it is awesome.

Looking at used PSPgos. The ones with games already installed on the device from before, I need to keep their PSN info for them to still work right?

This'll also mean missing out on the free PSN games (3 in the US, 10 in Europe) so probably best avoiding imo.

I got it off Ebay actually, quite a few Powersellers where selling new PSP Gos for around that price back when I bought mine, including Argos. Dunno, how much they're going for now.

If this will eventually lead to cfw on psp go I will be one happy camper. Ill finally be able to finish Crisis Core and we won't have to feel like buttheads when Birth Buy Sleep comes out. I was planning on borrowing my brother's phat for that one but I'd rather just buy the umd and get the game onto my Go.

Awesome thread, I'm going to keep mine on the old CFW until they add PSP/PS1 games since those are the most important for now.

Yeah, it looks like the 1o free game promotion has increased the average selling price of new units. I suspected as much would happen which is why i snapped one up just after the deal was announced (but not live/promoted) and they were still selling really low. Heck of a bargain!
If I spot any good deals on Go hardware I'll post them in this thread.
Edit: Shopto are selling the console for £175 delivered with a £20 PSN card, don't think you're going to beat that deal atm.

Looks like homebrew on 6.30 PSPs may be a reality sooner than expected:
http://wololo.net/wagic/2010/07/27/half-byte-loader-on-ofw-6-30/
Half Byte loader is currently being ported to take advantage of the new exploit found that isn't locked out by 6.30. It will require a specific game purchase (the exploit uses a commercial game not a demo) and there's no guarantees that this will work for the PSP Go but its progress nontheless. Nothing is guaranteed ofcourse.
Even with this news still DO NOT UPDATE YOUR PSP PAST 6.20 FIRMWARE.
IF YOU'RE ON 6.30 STICK WITH THAT. DO NOT INSTALL THE UPCOMING 6.31 UPDATE.

Well yeah, but if its a popular game many people may own it already and it will work fine with the UMD version for people with older PSPs.
Wonder what Sony's response will be if its one of the games included in the "10 free game" PSP Go promotion! :lol

Glad to see all these exploits are still being found. Every time I poke my head into a PSP thread I hope for the mythical PSP 3000 CFW breakthrough, but this'll do for now, though.

I couldn't get my PSPgo to update via EBOOT so I'm stuck on 6.30 as well. :/
Hoping this exploit get released when I'm off work so I can grab whatever game it is that's required.

GBA has slow down and the Megadrive emulator has no sound
Cavestory works perfectly though

GBA speed should be damn near perfect in all but a handful of games that only drop a few frames here and there. PicoDrive also supports sounds just fine in Mega Drive games, CD support can be iffy. Have you followed the incstructions in the OP (including removing the frameskip from GBA games) and are you using the same versions I recommended?
