Locate the S-Video port on the PSP unit. The port is marked by an icon of a headset. Place the pronged side of the S-Video cable into the PSP's S-Video port.

Place the color-coded opposite end of the S-Video cable into the television set or monitor's corresponding ports.

Power on the second PSP unit. Allow the unit to fully load. The "Cross Media Bar" will appear. Place the game you wish to share into the unit's disc drive. Allow the game to fully load. Follow the game specific instructions on how to host a multiplayer game session. This information can typically be found in the manual that is included with the game.
