      @moosepr it's not the PSPs original LCD. I couldn't get rid of the flicker, so I just went with aftermarket. It is using DPI and it's magnificent.

        @adamspc Well, wallet is ready and waiting... I hope the screen will be available from your site as well?))

          @fruitybit most likely. Still working on those details. It won't be the confusing situation that the composite LCDs caused for sure though. Either I'll stock it or I'll give a link that's guaranteed to be the right LCD. No disassembly, just the panel.

              Lol.

              Actually, I will be sending test boards out to a couple people that get involved in this last bit of design.

                Man I wish I still had my PSP lying around. This would be awesome to have. Any possible future plans on the PS VITA??? I do have one of those

                    @akumamax Doubtful. If I did something else it would probably be a custom case.
                    @goobatroopa Thank you for the compliment

                      Update 1: Got the board to detect battery voltage and show the amount remaining. Software is getting there...

                      The same code also handles the joystick. It took a while to get it working right, but the project finally has a genuine analog joystick. I'm still tweaking it. Once it's finished I'll show you guys how to get the joystick working over the GPIO pins (using an I2C module).

                      I welcome any help in getting this software finished. Would prefer to integrate it into retrogame, but most of the Python code was already available and I'm still focused on the board design

                        Am I correct and is the screenshot from an emulated PSX game on this PSPi?

                          This is a GBA game. The Zero doesn't do many PS games well.

                          Also while I'm here I should update this a bit. I started shipping the boards in January and I'm continuing to make improvements as I go. I make every board by hand, so I only ship 10 or so a week, but I'm gradually getting faster at it.

                          Thank you to the RetroPie guys for helping make this project possible. Your hard work allowed me to focus mostly on hardware and a few small software tweaks. You guys reading this, don't forget to support them at https://retropie.org.uk/donate/

                              what's the advantage of this over a hacked psp where we can also play psp games and all other retro games?

                                It's just different. The PSP could emulate some of the consoles and run PSP games. The Zero can also emulate the consoles, but it's limited to pre-Playstation/PSP. What you get though is all the other features of the Raspberry Pi. There's constant development on software for the Raspberry Pi, so there's going to be more game ports, better emulators, and more features as time goes on. There's tons of inputs for adding additional modules. Then there's the satisfaction you get from making something yourself, and being able to tweak the software to do what you want it to do.

                                The last big advantage is that this lets people revive their dead PSPs. I understand that some working ones are used for modding, but just as many dead ones were used, and those were just paperweights. Paperweights don't do much emulation.

                                  I have just discovered this and was wondering when you will be getting any more kits in?

                                  Raspberry Pi 400 - overclocked to 2.3GHz
                                  Theme - Comic book
                                  Emulators: All of them...
                                  Roms: Pretty much all of them...
                                  Favourite games: Circus Charlie, Gorf, Gauntlet Legends
                                  Controllers: Mayflash F101

                                    @chubsta Probably within a week or two. I make each board by hand, and it's very time consuming. I had to take a break and focus on my day job, but that is settling down now.
