Whats the difference between the psp with the blue screen and the psp with the orange screen?

Q. I have been looking on the internet for information about the playstation portable ( psp). While I was looking, I found out that one psp has a blue screen and the other psp I was looking at had a orange screen I cannot tell the difference is one slim and the other is fat or are they both the same?

A. Online the old psp is showed with a blue screen and the new slim one is shown with an orange screen. I would recommend getting the slim one. But you can change your screen color any time in the settings menu. You can even have a picture as your background.

How can I downgrade my psp 3004 and get a custom firmware?

Q. So I need to downgrade my psp (now I have version 6.20) and get a custom firmware, but is that even possible with model 3004? I don't have pandora battery so I have no idea what to do.

A. Pandora does not work on your PSP model anyway because of an encryption present on the initial load process (IPL), which also blocks the ability to install a custom firmware to the internal memory.

however, there is a homebrew loader called the Half Byte Loader (HBL), and it works on all firmwares to date (up to 6.20) that are capable of running the Patapon 2 Demo.

it can only load small applications for now but rest assured it's being worked on every day by it's creators, and has it's own website too.

i would recommend to you visiting www.psp-hacks.com

How can I downgrade my psp phat without a pandora battery?

Does the playstation store require a credit card number for you to use a playstation network card?

Q. i have a playstation network account and i'm planning on buying a psn card. i don't have a credit card though.

does it work like itunes where you need to enter a valid credit card number first before you can use the gift card or can i just use the psn card immediately without entering a credit card number?

A. No, you don't require a credit card at all. If you are planning to buy games on the PlayStation USA Store you can buy a PlayStation network prepaid card, redeem the codes and that's it. you can buy them on any blockbuster or online on ps3cardsonline.com

How do you install psp games using your psp internet free without downgrading?

Q. I have a psp 3000 with version 5.51 can i downgrade it and how do you downgrade it . I want to get games that are free without downgrading.

A. You need custom firmware to do that (download free games), and currently you can not downgrade from 5.51 firmware. You either need to buy a new PSP or used PSP with a lower firmware in order to downgrade or install custom firmware.

How do connect a psp 3000 to a netgear wireless router?

How to charge a PSP without the original charger?

Q. I borrowed a PSP from a friend of mine and he did not leave me the charger for it. The battery is completely dead is there anyway for me to charge it?

A. The PSP has it's own personal charge cable design so there would be no other way except through a USB cable. Just ask your friend for it or buy a cheap one on craigslist.

Or if you are really desperate, go to Toysrus or any store that has PSP Demos and use the charging cable they have for their demo PSP, charge your PSP for a good 10 minutes or until you are able to turn it back on and reach 10% on the battery level. Then save your PSP batteries until you go back home. Then turn on your computer and get a USB cable and connect your PSP, then go to your PSP "System Settings" and turn on "USB Charge" and the go to "USB Mode". Your PSP light should go orange. And just charge your PSP like that, but your PSP has to be on the the whole time (it will still charge). But remember if you want to recharge your PSP through USB then you can't have your batteries go dead.

Hope this helps!

Why would a playstation 2 game work on one playstation 2 but not another?

Is it possible to transfer downloaded games from one Playstation 3 to another Playstation 3?

Q. I'll be getting a thinner Playstation 3.
I already have several PS1 games downloaded on my PS3. Can I transfer those games to my new PS3?

A. Yes. It's kind of confusing and complicated to explain online though.
Go to your new ps3 and sign into your account, activate the system for game downloads ( you can only have 5 systems activated at any given time ). The activation is done somewhere in the settings files.
Once it's activated go into the playstation store and re-download the content to your new ps3.
It's confusing like I said but you can probably find out how to do it on youtube.

What cable connects sony playstation 1 to the tv and where do I get one now?

Q. We bought an older playstation 1 for the kids, apart for two controls it has no cables. Any advice on what ends the wire that connects the console to the tv should have and where I might be able to get one now, when this console is a bit dated. Thank you. Also, do you think that I can connect the console to the mains using an ordinary tape recorder mains wire?

A. for the power you can use any cable that has the figure of 8 connection to plug into the playstation, for the tv its sony's own connector, the same one the ps2 uses and the ps3 can also use so if you went into any games store and asked them for a cable to connect your playstation to a standard definition tv then you would most likely be give the right one

something similar to this one

How much would a playstation 2 sell for?

Q. I got a playstation that I've become tired of playing, mostly because of two useless controllers and already beaten games. How much do you think the console would go for with the wires?

A. Well, the value of your system depends on three key factors: design, condition, and accessories.

An originally designed Playstation 2 system, in mint condition, can sell for about $90, including a controller, box, hook-up wires, and instruction manual. If you are selling it at a used condition (including minor scratches, dust stains, etc.) without any accesories, I'm sure you could profit about $30-40. Each used controller could go for another $5-10, as well as each video game. Here is an image of this console's design: http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/ps2-photo.jpg

The redesigned slimmer model of the Playstation 2, mint, is worth at least $100, including the controller, box, wires, and manuals. At a used condition, the console could sell for $50-60 solo. Each used controller adds an extra $5-10, and each used game can sell for about the same price. Here is an image of this console's design: http://gaygamer.net/images/ps2drop.jpg

Depending on the rarity of the design/games, you could possibly make a little more profit. Craigslist (www.craigslist.org) is an easy way to get offers that will possibly provide you with more or less money around your given price, while eBay of course (www.ebay.com) can make you an infinite addition to your total outcome through auction.

Good luck selling!

Whats the difference between psp fat, psp slim and psp slim lite and which is the best which psp should i buy?

Q. Whats the difference between psp fat, psp slim and psp slim lite and which is the best which psp should i buy?

A. get the psp slim because it is Dimensions and weight:19% slimmer and 33% lighter system than the original PSP system.Hardware improvements. The PSP Slim & Lite offers several other tweaks and improvements from the older generation.To target the original PSP generation's poor load times for UMD games.o make the PSP slimmer, the capacity of the battery was reduced by 1/3. Due to more efficient power usage.External appearance, inputs and outputs The PSP Slim & Lite has a new gloss finish. The serial port was also modified in order to accommodate a new video-out feature.A new simpler and more compact UMD loading tray design was developed.Its analog stick was also redesigned to be more flexible and is not removable without opening the PSP.The archaic infra-red port was also removed because it offered no use to the original PSP generation Sony has added a TV output for the PSP Slim available through Firmware 3.60. The PSP can output in a conventional aspect ratio (4:3), and wide screen (16:9). It also offers a screen saver if the PSP is inactive for a set amount of time. It is able to output games, videos, and other media. To achieve TV output on the Slim model,Sony has released a new version of the remote control accessory designed for the Slim so thats why the psp slim is better then the fat one get the psp slim and pick me has best answer.
