PSP Emulator For PC, Mac & Linux
If you don’t know already, PPSSPP is without a doubt the only PSP emulator you need to consider for PC and pretty much every other platform!
PPSSPP was first released back in 2012 and since then has become the PSP emulator with the highest compatibility and is now the fastest performing PSP emulator.
There is also a PPSSPP RetroArch core which is also excellent but has not benefitted from as many updates as the standalone emulator, so if you are looking for a dedicated PSP emulator, PPSSPP without a doubt is the best you will find.
PPSSPP has all of the features you could ever want from an emulator built in, from save states and resolution upscaling, to comprehensive debugging tools, PPSSPP has you covered.
PPSSPP Features include:-
- Play PSP games upscaled up to 10x their native resolution
- Save states
- Rotate display options
- Comprehensive debugging tools
- Control mapping
- LAN multiplayer networking
- Display layout editor
- Postprocessing shaders
- Rendering resolution settings
- Frame skipping
- Texture filtering
- Texture scaling
- Cheat support
