I had a 3000 model. I bought it only because a coworker told me that it was trivially easy to install CFW and run my own local ISOs from the memory card, and a bunch of us would play pirated copies of Shinobido and Macross together on breaks.
That thing was a surprisingly capable little device. I lost mine a while back, and I honestly kinda miss it sometimes.
Modded PSPs were the best way of playing retro games on the go for the longest time, I’d say it’s only very recently that portable android consoles have even come close
You tried hardmodding it? Soldering in a USB-C port and a massive internal battery is apparently even easier on the 1000 than on the 3000 that I did it on!
Its all about that PSP-1000. Still working fine to this day!
Homebrew?
