it's not confirmed to work yet, but team noobz sees no reason why it wouldn't...drohne said:
they just need a japanese umd of the game...

Eventually, undoubtedly. I think the only thing that was stopping them is that they didn't have a JP UMD on hand.
That said, this is very exciting. I've got two buddies that have been wanting to homebrew, but had installed 3.10 or higher (official) right before 3.03 was cracked! And since I don't own GTA, but DO own Lumines, I can actually help 'em out now!

So, how long until you think there's a downgrader out there?

I bet that vast majority of these purchases are being made by people who already own one or more hacked PSPs and are banking on cashing in with this on ebay + panicking about Sony recalling the software.Pimpwerx said:
Response is too fast for it to be people that are NOT informed, and for those that ARE in the know(and interested in hacking), vast majority has to already have modded hardware.

(wow I'm late in replying) While there are too many options for save space to be a real concern, I'll agree that price is a factor. Sony is notorious for losing control of their bottom line as of late. But once memsticks become cheap as dirt to make, there will be no excuse.
Besides, it'd save them a lot of money if they didn't have to make a larger battery pack, and they'd be able to use the full power of the processor. The UMD is REALLY holding the PSP back.

Maybe some are like me. I just got my PSP about a month and a half ago, saw Lumines II on the shelf for five bucks more and figured it was the one to get because it was newer. I picked up Lumines the First today just in case I want it at some point and don't want to pay absurd prices.zoku88 said:

I'll let you know what I think after I try Lumines the First, which I'm about to do.zoku88 said:

This just proves that the PSP has had a killer app for some time. The problem is that Sony is doing their damndest to kill it.
They need to come up with some way for homebrew applications to be digitally signed by Sony so that they can run on official firmware. That way they can control the ISO loaders and UMD rippers while allowing the great legitimate projects (ScummVM for one) to be played by everyone. While I'm not doubting that the majority of those people buying up Lumines are sadly doing it for the piracy capabilities, it would help keep some people away from the lure of the hacked firmware, especially since it would negate having to wait a month for Dark_Alex to work his magic.

Most of them run perfectly. There are still glitches with some games but each version of the firmware brings improvements to the emulator. Browse through the official thread and you can see the impressions, and I know that a number of the PSP hacking sites maintain compatibility lists..mistuhcahlos said:
