        I know a few PSP games will run on a Pi3. Littlebigplanet and Castlevania run fairly well, probably a few more if you overclock.

        Currently running:
        Retropie 4.8.9 on a Pi Zero 2W (Overclock Settings: CPU 1400Mhz)
        ES-DE on a GMKtec K6 (Windows 11, 32GB RAM)

            @Yefet Doesn't PPSSPP have a Cheats menu from where you can enable them ? Do that and then you can download cheats for the game you're running from the game menu.

                @Yefet lr-ppsspp should have something similar to https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Cheats/. I was referring to standalone PPSSPP.

                  @mitu I installed ppsspp standalone. I copied cheats.db to roms/psp/psp/cheats and in ppsspp i clicked on import from cheats.db and it didn't import and the cheat menu is empty. How do I use the cheats?

                      I think you need to copy the cheats.db in /opt/retropie/configs/psp/PSP/Cheats and import it from there.

                          . When I press on import from cheat.db and press a it exit and doesn't import.

                          That works for me - make sure you have the correct path and file name:

                          pi@retropie $ ls /opt/retropie/configs/psp/PSP/Cheats
                          cheat.db  ULUS10277.ini
