How to Put Game Boy Games on a PSP

Playing games on the PSP that were only made for the Nintendo Game Boy used to be a pipe dream. Now, however, you can play any Game Boy game on the PSP with a PSP program known as GPSP. GPSP is an emulator that allows you to play Game Boy games on the PSP. Being able to play Gameboy games helps broaden the PSP game library quite a bit.

Things You'll Need

USB cable
Computer
GPSP
Game Boy ROM

  Connect your PSP to your computer with the USB cable. Your PSP will automatically go into USB mode. A window will pop up on your computer, and you will see the files and folder on the PSP memory stick.

  Download the Game Boy emulator for the PSP from the Resources section.

  Right-click the file after it has finished downloading and click "Copy." Go into the PSP memory stick and open the "PSP" folder. Right-click the "GAME" folder and click "Paste" to transfer the emulator to the PSP.

  Open the emulator folder that you just copied over and locate the "ROMS" folder. Copy and paste your Game Boy ROMs into this folder. ROMs are legal as long as you purchase the license from the creator of the game. In this case, Nintendo is the creator, so you need to contact it before downloading or using any Game Boy ROMs.
