Running homebrews and playing the newest PSP games?

Alright I found the answer to my question so now where do I get the custom firmware that I need to play homebrews and PSP games. If I can get this custom firmware now I am definately buying a PSP.

You will need to be on a Custom Firmware, its basically the same thing as the Official Firmware but with a lot of extras.

3.52 M33 can play most new games and can play homebrew.
3.71 M33 can play any game im guessing, but you need a black 'phat' psp in order to play homebrew that requires 1.50 firmware. You can play SNES Emulator on a psp with 1.50.

Well the cool things you can do with custom firmware include:
Running Homebrew! Homebrew is the main program used in the psp custom firmware programs. These include IR Shell where you can:
It lets you listen to your music while you play games.
Put shortcut to your homebrew programs and emulators on your psp.
has a cool Universal Remote program you can use to control different devices.
Its just basically another XMB, but in a different format.
It is pretty cool, it has easy access to devhook and you can also go into USB Mode and you don't even have to keep your screen sitting there. You can be in USB Mode and off listening to music and going into different sections on your psp.
Theres more stuff, you will see all the different things if you get it.

You can also play NES, SNES, N64, SEGA, and GBA emulators on your psp with custom firmware. So you can play about all NES, SNES, SEGA games on your psp. And there are not quite as many N64 games that you can play on your psp, but about 15? or so work alright. such as Super Mario 64, Super Mario Kart, and Super Smash Bros.

You can also watch youtube videos directly from your psp using your wireless internet.

You can also easily play PS1 games on your PSP, and also PSP ISO game files too.

You can also have short intro videos pop up when you turn on your PSP.

That is a short list of stuff I guess :D. It is pretty cool, i would recommend getting custom firmware. It is the same thing as regular firmware, except is has so much extra stuff you can do.

Its best if you buy a fat psp with a low firmware. Lowest one you can find will be best. Then downgrade to 1.50. Then i would reccomend M33 3.52-4. Mostly because its noob friendly.
Watch me stream on MIXER or follow on Youtube at ChA0TiCxDR3AMS
