I'm not sure if they changed the method, but I use popstation. I can upload the base.pbp to the zoo if the current vesions still require it.

Apparently, the emulator was never meant to work with PAL games, so all games need to be NTSC. There's supposedly some kind of conversation that goes on when you use certain programs to turn your PSX games into PSP-workable ones.

A lot of my PAL games work, it's basically just FFIX that hasn't worked.

Hmm. I use popstation (its really cool!) and now that I think about it, it has a PAL->NTSC FIX option, might wanna try that. ALso, My ffIX was NTSC already, but, I dunno why it didnt work :\ Speaking of which, Daxter never worked either.

I have never had any of the problems you guys are experiencing.

You guys DO have 3.52 M33, yes? About 90% of the PSX games work on it, and ALL PSP games.
There's also a newer version of popstation which uses a GUI, by the way. It's pretty good when converting ISO's and what not.

You just basically asked if there's a Windows emulator for the PSP. Answer: no.

No, that's not actually Windows 95. Think of it sort of like a Flash game....but it's not.
And no, there is no way to play RPG Maker games on here. I really really wish somebody would try though.

You can always use the japanese RPG Maker that's on the SNES. =)

PSP's hardware is way too limited to emulate Windows even semi-decently.

Actually it can run Windows 95 decently after it does the 10 minute boot-up.

Well, it might be able to run Windows 95 somehow, since it's so old and doesn't require as much resources as modern Windows systems (which I was refering to). Windows 95 isn't even supported by a lot of software developers nowadays.

That is true but RPG Maker 2000 does run in Windows 95.

That's actually really interesting

How well does it actually run it? We hear a lot about console emulation in general and how they're able to run commercial games. But a a lot of them run at a very very slow frame rate.

Can I assume the same with this as well? How well does it run Windows 95? I guess we can sort of gauge how well the psp can handle RPG Maker 2000 from this news.

*Aten stab otomon* Rami is not phony

Also, I've been wanting to see this for such a long time. I'd instantly port all my rm games to my PSP and be in blissfull harmony

I don't know I haven't tried and don't have a PSP but I know it is possible so like...why don't one of you dudes who have one try it. :d

I guess it would be pretty cool to be able to play RPG Maker games on your PSP but i cannot imagine you making them on it...a bit weird huh? btw Daxter is an awesome platformer, GTA games for the win of course, MGS PO and Disgaea OMFG that game ROCKS!!! Oh yeah cannot forget Pursuit Force and Syphon Filter....I recommend those great games. God of War too but it ain't out yet....

How do you know it runs decently then? It sounds really weird that it'd take 10 mins to boot (which itself indicates that PSP isn't really good hardware to emulate it) but would run decently after it.

Well, it uses a 333 MHz MIPS CPU. You need to do actual emulation to get Windows 95 running, because it's only available for the x86 platform. It's purely that which would slow it down, since it should have plenty of RAM (the PSP has 32 MiB, and iirc you only need 4 MB RAM to run Windows 95) and disk space (for a swap file, should it be necessary) should also not be a problem.

Emulation on the PSP is actually VERY good. SNES, Genesis, Playstation, and even games like Marvel Vs. Capcom are able to run at perfect frame rates. The only problems are the games that use those special graphics for the SNES(Super Mario RPG, Kirby Superstar, etc.)
There is even a Nintendo DS emulator....but it's complete shit and only runs like 10% of the games.

I'm positive an emulation of RPG Maker is possible....but I don't think Windows 95 is the solution. Some insane coder might come around to it someday, though
