PSP stands for Playstation Portable which is a handheld gaming console developed by Sony and was first launched back in the year 2004. The first model is known as PSP 1000. PSP has a powerful GPU for 3D graphics and a multimedia player which makes it a unique game console. The PSP was also compatible with many PSONE games. Though PSP-1000 has now been discontinued, so you can not buy it in retail, however a better option is available the PS-Vita, but it is much costlier almost the price of a 12 GB PS3. If you want to go back in time to enjoy old PSP games then I will tell you a way to do this.
Previously I wrote about playing PSP games on Windows PC, that proved useful to our readers. Now I am going to write for android also. There is an android app, PPSSPP emulator with which you can play PSP games on your android smartphone. PPSSPP is developed by Henrik RydgÄrd and is supported by multiple platforms including iOS, MAC, Blackberry, Symbian, Android and Microsoft Windows.
PPSSPP will run on most android phones but the emulation will be slow on dual core phones. On most phones the games are not even playable. The developer has set minimum requirements to Nvidia Tegra so that games can run smoothly, but most games are playable on high end android phones like Galaxy S6, iPhone 6S, Moto X, Samsung Galaxy S series, Nexus 5X etc.
