Sony's PlayStation Portable delivers games to your hot little hands. And, better yet, hackers have found a way to play bootleg Nintendo and Sega Genesis titles on PSPs running OS 1.50 (later releases are patched). And it's easy.
1. Download
Use a PC or Mac to download software from PSPbrew.com that lets PSP emulate old consoles. Unzip the file to get the PSP folder on the desktop. Search Google or a P2P netéwork for games using the keyword ROM, like so: "ROM Mario." Copy the game to the PSP folder.
2. Upload
Tether the PSP to the computer with a USB cable. Select "Settings > USB Connection" from the PSP main menu to mount the PSP's Memory Stick as a drive on the computer. Copy the PSP folder with the emulators and games to the Memory Stick.
3. Play
From the PSP main menu, select "Games > Memory Stick." The emulator warez should be listed. Run one and use it to browse the Memory Stick for games. Watch out - those turtles still move pretty quickly!
