How to Play PS1 Games on PSP

Despite being over a decade old, the original Sony PlayStation remains a popular console among hardcore gamers, due to its large and varied library of classic games. The system remains popular enough that Sony included PS1 backward compatibility in its PlayStation 3 system, allowing users to play PlayStation games on the PlayStation 3. PS1 fans received an additional treat when Sony unveiled remote play connectivity, which allows users to wirelessly connect a PSP to a PlayStation 3 over the Internet. Once the connection is established, the PSP can play media and games that are stored on the PlayStation 3, including PS1 games.
