Activating a PSP System on a PS3

Here's a bit of info if you decide to upgrade your PSP and have downloaded some PS1 titles from the PlayStation Store. If you try to play them from the memory card, the first time you play them, you'll get this error:

"To use this content, you must activate the system."

Loot Ninja found some information on how exactly to do this. So if you get stuck in the position they were, here's how to get around it.

There are fixes for any SONY issue.....However the only way to fix an Xbroke360 is to send it back

CyberSentinel6825d ago (Edited 6825d ago )

is to strip it of b/c, remove $200.00 from the price tag, and throw in a copy of spiderman.

Even THEN, without any games, it won't catch up.

How low will you go Sony?

You already begged developers, will you beg us next?

lynx1halo6825d ago

no need for sony to beg......now with a competitive price point...multiple SKU's offered...games galore soon to be released..and a track recored for reliability (unlike the toaster Xbox360) they never beg...they let the product and gaming experience do their talking.....Speaking of begging...im pretty sure i saw Master Chief on a 7-11 cup BEGGING ME to buy his game LOL not thx MR. 640P

Taker_1296825d ago

I swear, you never give it a rest. The ps3, 360, and the wii will do fine this generation. Just because you don't like a system doesn't mean it will fail. Hell I don't like the 360 but i'm not going to call it a failure because of that.

drunkpandas6825d ago

I agree, all will do well. I have all three systems and all have their strengths and weaknesses. I'm on my 7th Xbox 360, all dying from either RRoD or disc read errors (thank you Best Buy warranty). I keep coming back because it has great games and provides a lot of fun.

Get stuck? Both the PS3 and the PSP explained it pretty good... Took me no more than a few seconds to figure it out.

Mikey_Gee6825d ago

I have 3.71 M33. If anyone else out there has the same Custom FW can they comment ??

I still buy my games, but love the homebrew applications available when using Custom FW and have no desire to go to official firmware.

MikeGdaGod6825d ago

i'm glad there's a fix for those that did

i think the remote play feature of the PSP and PS3 is something that's extremely overlooked. everyone wants to compare Live with the PSN, but remote play is a feature 360 has no way to compete with.

when PlayTV comes to the US and we're able to play all PS3 games on the PSP through remote play, the benefits of having both systems will obviously clear.

i'm glad i already made my investment. both are great gadgets and the future is only gonna get brighter.

taz80806825d ago

Remote play is definitely unique, should provide good fun once they get it refined. Unfortaunately Xbox 360 doesnt have anything like it, the Wii can compete in this arena but hasnt done much to further the progress.

MikeGdaGod6825d ago

the Wii could try to compete, but the fact that is doesn't have a HDD really limits what their remote play features would be. add to that, most games on the Wii greatly depend on the motion controls. where as the PS3 games are mostly played normally with a controller and the PSP just acts like a controller with a screen in remote play.

i guess we'll see........................

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle60d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7760d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde67d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy67d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga69d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199268d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga68d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman68d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger68d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box69d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion68d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7269d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7568d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit68d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14968d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7768d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
