How to Play Games on Remote Play for PS3

Remote Play is a feature exclusive to certain Sony products such as the PSP and PlayStation 3. It allows you to connect to other Remote Play enabled devices wirelessly. Remote Play lets you view movies and listen to music, and--using a connected PS3 and PSP system--you can even play certain games. Setting up Remote Play so you can play games from your PS3 on your PSP is easy to do, but it will take several minutes of your time.
