They were generics as alright, 60-in-1 and LCD's, ya grand for a quick bash of nostalgia but wouldn't be attempting a world record attempt on them

Torn between getting a PSP or PSTV. I have no real interest in Vita games so that's not a must.
Playing some PSP on my phone at the moment and I do miss handheld gaming but PSTV may be a better system for DualShock, better screen/sound via TV etc.
Any thoughts? Haven't played a PSP since the unreliable 1000 model about 10 years ago. Just looking to do some light gaming. Ridge Racer, Darkstalkers, Lumines etc.
Upside is I have a One4All voucher so could pick up a PSP in the Rage. Likely a 2000 model, don't think there's a huge difference between the 3000 model. Must look into it. Then need to look at one of those SD card adaptors.
Just wondering is it silly to consider a PSP?
I'd honestly just get a Vita. More reliable and a better screen. I've a PS TV but the resolution of PSP and Vita games looks crummy on a modern TV. Only issue of course is the insane prices of memory cards.

I've never played Panzer Dragoon, I think it tends to fly under the radar. I was surprised to learn they're on rails shooters which I'm a big fan off but they never seem to be mentioned.
Seems they're both fairly expensive
Saga is expensive, the others should be pretty cheap ? Unless Saturn collecting as got to hell as well..0 -

They were going for 10-15 a couple of years ago. They are not rare at all. Just inflated prices because they are Saturn games I suppose.
The first game has dated quite a bit. It's still fun but quite limited, you wouldn't play it more than once and think as a rail shooter it's good but not great.
Panzer Dragoon Zwei on the other hand is a good choice for best rail shooter ever made. The levels are much better designed, the branching levels are a great innovation and overall it's a much more solid and replayable package than the first game. I'd rank it up there with Starfox, Starfox 64 and Panzer Dragoon Orta as the best of its genre.

So I solved my PSTV decision. Rather than emulating PSP games on a Vita or PSTV I thought I'd just hook up a laptop with a 360 controller. Not as pure as original hardware but I think I can make an exception for this rather than spending €100+ on hardware.
Just playing Ridge Racer so far. Apart from the HUD being gigantic it doesn't look to bad considering the TV is 10 times the size of the PSP screen hard to believe the PSP came out 14 years ago :O

That depends on what's doing the upscaling
PPSSPP can go well beyond the stock resolutions 0 -

Seem to be having a fair few issues with compatibility with PPSSPP. I've had a few roms crash out. Very early into a game. I think I've had 3-4 out of 6-7 crash
You on the latest version?0 -

Apparently not! Got 1.5.4 off Emulator Zone, apparently 1.7.4 is the most recent release. I'll give that a try, hopefully it's better.
Edit: no luck
What GPU are you using? Are the drivers the latest ones?0 -

I think I've only played through it once so far, a good few years back. I still hum tunes from the game to this day. Personally I loved it
