This Intellivision emulator for the PSP would have to be among the closely watched homebrew emus ever released. With both Zx-81 and DrNicket working on it, users are assured of having an emu that runs smoothly and virtually no experiences of crashing.

That said, this update serves as further proof how the two are set on ensuring that whatever bugs and glitches encountered in the emu are fixed.

Like in this version, they've fixed the bug in the ROM file requester such that the PSP no longer hangs. Here's the full list of changes in this version...

Changelog:

• Bug fix in Rom file requester (PSP hangs when the rom list was big and already sorted)
• Add help menu
• Screenshots are now saved in PNG format
  

More info, like installation instructions and other whatnots, can be found in the readme so make sure you check it out.

The PSP scene has been around and thriving for more than a year now, we have all been there to witness its dark genesis to our shores (PSP debuted to US with the then-dubbed "invincible firmware 1.50"), to its phoenix-like rebirth (when a group called PSP-DEV first come up with the swaploit and paved the way for the now "golden firmware 1.50"). After a few dark days of the dreaded updates, causing the scene to become somewhat a bit slow, the PSP is once again alive and kicking thanks to  the series of breakthroughs (discovery of kernel access, creation of downgraders, and firmware emulation) we've all been lovin'.

With these newer developments, the PSP's life is quickly revitalizing. That's why we've been noticing more and more newbie beginner questions, which are actually a good thing because it shows the interest is growing. It is then not surprising to see T3, considered as every gadgeteer's bible, featuring the perks of having a PSP in its July 2006 ish'. They even covered a full-feature story that serves as a walkthrough for those who are new with PSP homebrew.

The T3 story, all graced with blurbs like "There are hundreds of homebrews (non-commercial home-made applications) out there for the PSP" and "The homebrew scene has created everything from universal remote controls, Wi-Fi signal sniffers, PDA applications and, of course, emulators" runs a step-by-step process on how to install emulators on a PSP.

DrNicket tipped us that there was an article in the latest T3 magazine with PSPUpdates in it, so we went to buy a copy and check it out for ourselves. Let me tell ya, we were all smiles, not because PSPUpdates was in it, but because homebrew is finally getting more exposure -- a sign that the technology we all love is getting the recognition it deserves from the public.

The appreciation just doesn't just go out to the developers who worked so hard to bring us all these homebrew games, applications, emulators, and expolits, to the sites that spread the word about every development, but instead to the whole community as well. Yep, that includes you, my friend. PSP homebrew being publicized to a bigger population means more opportunities and possibilities for everyone. It informs more people, and with more people the broader our horizons will be.

Those currently developing could add creating programs for PSP to their resume (hey, if more people starts to recognize it, it'll get more respect), prompting more outside coders to take interest providing us with fresh ideas and creations. It'll also attract more interest from even those who are beginners to all of this, giving us more opportunities to rear future Fanjita, Edison Carter, Ditlew, Nem, Booster, Dark_Alex's etc. Add all of that up, and what do the rest of us get? A whole lotta load of more homebrew!

We here at QJ.Net definitely welcome this trend, as much as we welcome those who are new to the world of PSP and its currently limitless ever expanding possibilities. We are ecstatic that the media are spreading the word about what was once considered taboo, meanwhile we have to ask what your thoughts on this subject are. Let us know in the comments!

The emulator machine zx-81 is at it again! And this time, it's an update to his Intellivision emulator, PSPInt. Seriously, this guy keeps churning out updates like there's no tomorrow.

zx-81, one of the most active homebrew developers is at it again. He has just updated his Intellivision emulator to v1.0.5. And this guy is a freaking machine, just yesterday, he released v1.0.4. This proves the furious pace which he works at. If you're just getting into development and are looking for some inspiration, make this guy your role-model. Seriously!

The new version, has only one addition, but a good one at that. He has included a new virtual keyboard, made by DrNicket - a respected member of our forums. Just like his other releases, this one also contains 2 versions - one for 1.5, and the other for 2.0 and above. Plus the sources are included too!
