These USB keys need to run at a low enough voltage so that the PS Classic can actually run it without running out of power. Also, you'll need a usb thumb drive to store the emulators and roms.

Its available for a fairly cheap price at Amazon Uk (around £40). ( This guide will only cover Retroboot for now, but I may updated it with Autobleem and Bleedsync if people show interest)įirstly, you have to obtain the hardware. Retroarch itself is a unified solution to manage multiple emulators through in easy to use interface. Retroboot is a wrapper for Retroarch that hijacks the PS Classic launch logic and boots directly into Retroarch. Ok, so, there are various solutions you can use, which have different behaviours and results, but I decided on using Retroboot. The pad works great for mame, cps3, snes, nes and megadrive games. Performance is rock solid on anything released before the year 2000. The set-up is literally as simple as dragging a few files onto a USB key and then plugging that into your machine. You don't have the actually modify the machine in anyway *.Īll emulators and games are launched through a single unified interface. In my experience, modifying your PlayStation Classic is the best home emulation solution for 99% of people (big words I know) because of these reasons: Previously, have followed several of these guides myself and always came away a little disappointed, not for anything Dumpster had done, just because either the picture wasn't through HDMI, or setting the machine up was difficult, or had various drawbacks. Inspired by many emulation set-up guides, I thought I would write up my own for you guys.
