Plugs in the back of a PS1?
Does this also work with a Japanese PS?
I'd like to have that one, but no money left at the time. :(
Another problem would be payment. I live in Germany and have no credit card or something.

All I know is I'm saving for a Playstation now. I can get one for $25 and that'll be cool.
Maybe it's better if I didn't have an avatar so i didn't have to spend all my time making one...

It will take me a day or 2 to get pics of the thing it self, have to barrow a digcam. It looks like an older gameshark only with a different sticker.

This is the only pic I could find of it  And this was the only info on it "Built in GB, GG, SMS, PCE emulator. (Run GB, GG, SMS, PCE format files on PSX)." As I recall, it seemed to run pretty smooth, and you can add your own colors to game boy games.

is THIS it? and how do you get the ROMs on the Playstation, just burn a CD? does it require a modded console?

As far as I understand you don't need a modded console and the roms are loaded from a CD-R.

Thats the website I found.
Nope, dont need a modified playstation for it to work. What you do have to do is there is a button under the lidon the playstation, you either have to get a spring that fits on the button andon the lid or what I always did is use half a tooth pick and wedge the button down. You pul the emulatorz in the back of your playstation, wedge the button down, put a real playstation cd in, turn the power on, the cd will spin for a second, then you put in a back up playstation game or cd of roms, and your done, a screen will pop up showing all of your roms, or the playstation exe.

sorry to bring this thread out of the grave, but i wanted to do the dreamcast-nes emulator, and i would have to buy a dreamcast in order to do it. But when i saw this, it says you need a psx that can play cd-r media. i have one of those new small psone's, and i wondr if i could do it without a mod chip? and if i cant, where can i get the "boot discs" to make it work??

Without a mod chip, you'd have to do a disc-swap, which still requires opening the console, and taping down the little switch that lets the console know when the disc cover is open. Your best bet is to get a mod chip. If you even can for the smaller model Playstation.

I was going to buy one of the famicom handhelds to play my NES / Famicom games, but now I've got an even better idea.
You can make one of the handheld PSone systems from Ben's site, and run a disc full of NES roms wherever you go without having to carry around dozens (hundreds) of carts.
PS and PSone's are nearly free nowadays, I bet you could pick up a system and a mod chip for under $50 if you look hard enough. (I haven't done one before, but you have to start somewhere.) I picked up a PS without any of the cords for $5 at a thrift store a few months ago, he sounds like a good candidate.
Someone said you don't need modchips to play DC backup games, is this correct? And are DC games region coded?

The best option for NES games on the go might well be a GBA with a Flash Cart. PocketNES works quite well. Granted, you won't be able to hold QUITE as many ROMS on a cart as a CD, but if you get bored of the ones you've copied, you could always reflash new ones one. The biggest problem with using the GBA for this is that the screen resolution of a GBA is a bit smaller than the NES, so the graphics will end up a bit squished. However, combine it with the recently announced Micro GBA thing, and you have the SMALLEST... NES... EVAR.

DBP: No, the Original dreamcast doesnt need to be modded. but there was a second release and NES-Luke said that you can look on the bottom if it says (1) or (2) in a little circle. im buying one from my buddy in sudbury, when he comes down..
