yeah and also, if the emu can force the games to run at a lower res, it will require less power but the games may look awkward because of the psp screen, the pixel ratio is 16 to 9 but the physical size ratio is 4 to 3 which means psp screen pixels are slightly taller than the width which makes them slightly rectangular

The psp is between the ps1 and ps2 spec wise, you will never see a ps2 or gamecube game running on it. Forgot the exact number, but a system has to be so many times more powerful than the machine it emulates to make it possible. It's just not. That's funnier than the guy in this topic who claimed his mates uncle had a ps3 3 months ago. Btw, how wel do snes mode7 games run on the psp emulator(mario kart, f zero, starfox etc)?

So the PSP matches the PS2 and easily beats the PS1 as I thought.
Also remember the PSP is running the games at a much much lower resolution and so that requires less power.

@mikLSP: I doubt that the PSP is more powerful then the PS2, I mean, 333MHz only means that it can do 333 million processes per second. The PS2 300 MHz 'Emotion Engine' Processor is capable of Performing on-the-fly Antiailising (Not sure what this is though
), and Can produce a Computing power of 6.2 Gigaflops as compared to the 2.8 Gigaflops from the PSP processor (Once again i'm not sure what in gods name this is all about, but it sound impressive to talk about
). But, what i do know is that, In order to emulate a platform, you need roughly 10 times the original processing power, I think the PSP produces 10 times the PSone power, so the PS1 Emu, should not be much of a problem. (But, hey.... Don't quote me on it, I'm no expert).

As i said, it's between the ps1 and ps2. It's not more powerful than the ps2. A ps1 emulator is still far fetched, even the xbox struggles with many games. Interesting to see a neo geo cd emulator has been released for the psp though. You'll need a big memory stick for those iso's.
