What do we have here? A working right analog stick for the PSP? Well, if that isn't a treat. canwehackit shared this vid over at YouTube, but not before doing some tweaking with his PSP for the mod, of course.

Basically, he says that what it does is hijack the button functions. But don't worry, the buttons will still work normally, so you can still play your games the "normal" way. For now, it's still in its developmental stages, but the goal is to have it completely molded into the PSP in about a week or less.

Now, guys, keep in mind that this is not an external analog, so there'll be no need for connecting and disconnecting. Rather, the analog is internally built into your handheld. Also, put a halt first to whatever criticisms you may have, as this is but a prototype. So what you'll be seeing in the vid below is not how the final product will look like. Then again, it's pretty clear to see that it does indeed work.

If you guys become interested, and if demands grow enough, he assures that there will be premade parts ready for installation, so you can veer off from more soldering projects.

Oh, and canwehackit shouts out loads of thanks to cyberprot and all the folks at acidmods for all the help with this little endeavor.

 » I would defo buy this mod!

as long as it was available in the uk i would purchase this mod and fit it. this idea is fantastic and i cant believe that sony never did this themselves.

it would be interesting to find out how much it would be, as a replacement joypad for the left is not much at all.

Good job on your mod. It looks promising. I hope you will perfect it soon and maybe release it to the public.

 » long overdue!

Nice and clean, doesn't the PSP look so much better this way? Hopefully Sony will take a hint once more and more people perform this mod just as Nintendo did with GBA and GBAsp once people took it upon themselves to ad backlighting to the lcd's. I'm sure Sony won't miss a chance to cop out.

Also, I would like to know what game is being played int he demonstration, looks like a decent sci-fi fps

   by The Don Killuminati (Unregistered) - 2006-12-06
 » Yes, what game IS that?

I've never seen that game for PSP, and it looks like a rather decent game so it seems like it would have been reviewed by now...

We are planning on developing a solderless kit for this mod the kit will be as easy as changing your face plate with the one we provide.. More information can be found at either www.Nextpsphacks.com or WWW.AcidMods.COM

 » dodgy vid

did anyone notice when he presses the shoulder button to fire that sometimes there is a delay in firing on the game specially at 23-25 seconds into it

   by can we hack it? (Unregistered) - 2006-12-06
 » theres a reason for this...

the reason is when i put the faceplate on it didnt fit right because i cut off a screw mount by mistake and i had to press it really hard and sometimes it just didnt work...

 » when is the mod coming out...

where you can use a wireless, or wired, controller for player 2 and the handheld psp for p1 so two players can play against each other while watching the psp screen?

 » That's real nice!

Best functionality hardware mod I've seen for the PSP! great work! Hoping for a tutorial

 » I hav an idea.....

They should have a dual L and R mod.

   by casper (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » Is it really true?

The image is very bad but I think I never saw the player using the left analog stick!! How can we now is the right analog stick is using the left analog stick connections?! If it is true then soon we can expect this to be on the market with "easy on mounting kit".
