The PSP's built-in emulator for original PlayStation games is without a doubt one of my favorite features the system has to offer. With a modified PSP, a few of your favorite PS1 games, and pop-fe you can easily convert your PS1 games to have them on the go! This process requires you to make a backup of your original game disc and convert it to EBOOT format for use with the PSP.

This video requires your PSP to be modified with CFW installed along with a basic understanding of how to navigate it. If you are wanting to look into installing CFW on a PSP, look further down in the description of this video to find a link covering how to do this. This also works for a PS Vita, PSTV, or Vita TV utilizing Adrenaline.
