Fixing The PSP Go's Biggest Flaw

[@MachoNachoProductions]

Correction: While the PSP Go was the last version of the console released in the United States and Japan, Europe got one more variation called the PSP Street (E1000) in 2011.

[@MichaelM28]

This mod has existed for a few years so the title is a little inaccurate Edit: He changed the title

[@rymc420]

you still dont give the correct creator of the new design credit. Aaamods came up with the new design way over a year before geniuses copy came out. They are known in the gaming community to steal designs and even game device concepts from people to market it themselves. They order from the original creators and then copy and paste. You need to delete this video and post a correct video, giving a known scammer praise like this is ridiculous.

[@polusilangit9102]

when psx desr on your youtube? I still waiting...

[@elvendragonhammer5433]

You can probably avoid some of the loading lag by getting a TF card made for high speed camera's- they routinely have higher reading & writing speeds over a standard card. (Also, if your not aware- CF, SD, MSD, MagicGate, USB Memory sticks, Etc, are ALL a type of TF card). Personally I'd want to see how much storage it would accept, if the bios can read above 128.

[@TexasHollowEarth]

@elvendragonhammer5433 - .... nope. 128GB is max. I've tried 200GB and up, as well as 2 SD card combos under 200GB using ProDuo adapters running on a PSP 2000. Capacity will usually show correctly, but games won't launch. I'm in a very similar situation with (New) 3DS and Vita SD cards. I can't get the New 3DS to see a 1TB SD card + can't seem to format a 1.5TB SD card with 64KB clusters (required) to get it working on the Vita 🤷‍♂️

[@jkfdkjjd]

A standardized USB type C replacement for the garbage proprietary connector would be a much more welcome mod for the PSP Go TBH

[@bboy7531]

That would be cool, but it would affect the ability to use the cradle and video out feature.

[@aiodensghost8645]

Cradle owner/user here... if you could also preserve docking/video out in the process, I'd love it.

[@Kalvinjj]

@@aiodensghost8645 Not impossible but since the video out on the PSP was analog, it would involve a heck lot of circuitry. The thing barely fit the adapter, let alone anything more complex like a port swap (not to mention motherboard modification).

[@solidstate000]

charging this thing is a nightmare. even the USB cables don't work right with power banks or standard AC adapters. a USB C power charging overhaul would be a godsend.

[@daskampffredchen]

They are great to mod. You dont have a better option for mobile PS1 and there are some really good emulators. Everything below N64 runs great (well SNES can be tricky) and can even run some N64 games. And the PSP itself also has a great game library. It also is super easy to mod and the current Custom Firmware also allows to disable the mod so you can play your legal games online

Glad someone finally mass produced this mod. My PSPGo still rocks that original DIY version from 2017/2018. Should cover the USB-C mod for the PSPGo too!

[@TN_AU]

Back in the day I got the original design from the original guy in Japan who made it. The only flaw with the original one was that it was just tape holding down the flat ribbon cable to the sd card adaptor. When the PSP Go heated up, the tape would lift and the connection from the ribbon cable and the sd card was lost. I went ahead and soldered the flat ribbon cable to the sd cable using thin wires, problem solved.

[@BeingKyleBusch18]

Funny thing is, i still have the same one i ordered back in 2018 or 2019, i cna't remember but i NEVER USED IT! I still have it somewhere but i much prefer this plug n play method over that solder method.

[@o0julek0o]

@@aiodensghost8645 nice! I’ve been meaning to do it with my PSPGo, but all the older versions came with the memory stick pro duo instead of an SD card (you put micro SDs into both but the pro duos don’t necessarily support very big micro SDs) which apparently might cause issues when you put larger micro SD cards in and I actually wanted to make my Go into a proper little portable media player and slap in like 512GB or even a 1TB if it was possible.

[@dogeymon83]

Another con you forgot to add is the fact that you have to disassemble the back of the console every time you want to switch out the micro sd card.

[@NeilG-u6m]

agree, as per my suggestion, a new Repro Rear Shell with the MEM STICK 2 SD CARD embedded into the shell with external access, that would be the ULTIMATE GO MOD!

[@pilcrow182]

And another con is the fact that it makes using official psp memory cards impossible without disassembling the system again. So if you already had one and are using this as an upgrade, you better make sure to back up the old card's contents (saves, homebrew, etc) somewhere accessible so you can copy them to the new setup as needed.

[@PiPArtemis]

Users of the "New" 3DS models will be familiar with that annoyance, although this is 6 unsecured screws instead of 2 captive ones

[@davidalvarado9957]

The whole point is to have an SD card big enough to not need to be replaced until necessary. Yall are just making up problems that don't exist. If you already have a memory stick amd are trying to replace it then having a backup of everything to move it to the new one is just standard procedure.

[@TheM0nkeyBomb]

Not really necessary unless memory cards expire after a short amount of time

[@mannduro]

A backplate with access to the card would have been better. But that is something one could add yourself

[@gammaphonic]

The 128GB limit for PSP is the reason I got myself a Vita. 512GB SD card + Adrenaline = all the PSP I could ever need. And also some Vita games too. This mod is super cool though. Finally a solution for those people who love the PSP Go’s form factor.

Hey Tito, nice video! I did this mod a while back using an M2 adapter from etsy, i had to solder my own ribbon to the mem card adapter.

[@QuestForTori]

That big slowdown is a problem in games too - games like Motorstorm with a lot of streaming music and FMV will stutter and sometimes hang up with the adapter. In my experience, it's also had the tendency to regularly unmount itself when carrying the PSP around in your pocket, requiring dozens of reboots to try and get it recognized by the system again.

[@brandonwitzig2551]

Check if your game is in CSO or ISO format. CSO compression can cause this behavior on the PSP.

[@triple_lei]

Yeah I've found these big storage solutions sometimes just don't play music. I know in Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded, when you play the Street Fighter II games and get to your second win-quote screen, you won't hear the music at all. But the very first time and all occasions after, it's fine. It's the weirdest thing. I think this music was only delayed slightly on a real 32 GB Memory Stick Pro Duo. I can't remember if it played at all with 64 GB on a PSP-3000 using an adapter. Of course, I'm just glad I know those old Street Fighter games inside and out. Makes me wonder what kind of music I'd be missing if I played a PSP game for the first time with one of these big storage solutions... 😐 EDIT: Also didn't matter if that game was my original untouched PSN download, or I decrypted it to an uncompressed ISO. It did run fine on a Vita with 512 GB, but I hate the Vita d-pad, so.

[@Beavernator]

Did this to my white PSP GO last year... SO nice to just have every game I have on the one system... Always loved the GO...

Another con is that you need the right kind Micro SD Memory Card (older cards don't seem to work very well with this adapter) and you need the right adapter kit, being not all of the ones sold on the market are of good quality...also the limitation of 128GB is a know drawback of being able to have your entire collection in the palm of your hands, but for the most part you can part out yout favroites (i think its up to 100 games can be loaded on a psp before it the os bugs out) That id where categories lighy comes in so you can sort your games in folders and basically drag and dropp your games in whatever sorting style you might want or need

I'd love to see a version of this with a small RAM cache buffer, this should greatly decrease load times latency, boot times, stop any load jitter/stuttering, the faster, the better, and just a small amount should do, it could also be combined with a NAND cache to temporarily load games onto when playing, or even the last few games you have played to really speed things up, you could make the RAM cache large enough to hold at least one game at a time, but it would be much cheaper and more efficient to use a RAM/NAND combination, the PSP is notoriously laggy to load games from SD cards, and the more ISO's and PSN games you have, to slower and more laggy it gets, but a 256MB RAM and 8GB NAND cache chip would negate this problem and make the PSP so much more enjoyable to use.

[@MichaelBaldwinb3l0kk]

Kewl that there is a new version of this mod out... more choices out there for people to purchase.

The slow load times always happen with any third party or modification to the memory, I remember when I had one of those SD to memory stick adapters for my standard PSP and it would also take forever to load the games

[@YukkoKanzakiCh]

About the slight bolge, I modified the adapter and soldered the sdcard directly to the ribbon cable tho.. I rather modified the adapter instead of modified the pspgo itself 😅 also about the 5-15 second delay when starting the console, it was a firmware mod that causes the delay you can tweak the firmware mod so it only gives you about 2-4 second delay, I never use infinity tbh 😊also I found out that SanDisk ultra A2 128gb works way better than samsung.. anyway. good video as always, tito 🎉

I had a PSP Go (white model) on my hand with the 128 GB storage upgrade and this little device looks amazing in terms of hardware appearance. Btw, if anyone has a modded PSP Go or any other related models, I do recommend two mod to improve the game library management 1. Game Categories (Lite): This will allow users to create custom categories for your PSP Games, homebrew, PSX Games, or anything else installed in the ISO or GAME directory. 2. HomeBrew Sorter: This will allow user to re-arrange the game order placement to users liking like in alphabetical order. It works wonderful with Game Categories (Lite) so that you can categorize the game folder for each platform (PSP, PS1, etc.) and do game management within each categorized folder

I have the Xperia also. I love my PlayStation portables. Thanks for this video.

This is pretty cool, what it really needs is a dock or charging port mod, probably my least favorite part of that device. I am too cheap to buy an official dock, they are outrageously priced, I probably would if I had not moved on from the device though. I might make it a future project as a whole though, charging port, buttons, memory, etc, really great device.

It wasn't the last variation to be released. PSP street/E1000 released a year later.

[@CircuitBird]

The PSP Go was the last PSP to be released in the US. Europe received the PSP E-1000, which removed Wi-Fi capabilities and was more lightweight. The shell was matte black. It's a nice, little console.

[@numbazZify]

PSP E-1000 is heavier than 3000 and feels like the first fat PSP 1000. E-1000 is the worst PSP you can get

[@herrmayhem1915]

​@@numbazZifyI think it also removed stereo audio.

[@aiodensghost8645]

Stereo audio, wifi and maybe even video out were removed. The battery was made more of a pain to get to (because it's behind that big, clunky UMD door). I'd only want one if I could mod it to play downloads, then give it a cellphone battery mod.

[@coderkind]

It’d be great if someone came up with a 3D printed back cover for the PSP Go which accommodated the back bulge; wouldn’t perform this purely because of the plastic trimming and the long-term effects of stretching the back cover plastic.

[@PimpinFAR]

“Just got?” I’ve had one of these for over a year lol but yes, it absolutely is a MUST if you want more than 5 games on your Go lol

[@rymc420]

he didnt know that this is a stolen design from aaamods

[@ryansample6016]

0:12 My man forgot the PSP Street exists, lol

[@aravindvinayakan]

This mod would pair nicely with the PSP Go Power Armour mod, with all the extra space that mod adds, I don't think you'd still have the bulging issue!
