The PlayStation Portable (PSP) is a handheld game console made by Sony. For its time it was a powerful handheld with a massive homebrew scene, far superior to the more popular Nintendo DS in both respects. Along with its comfortable form factor, this made it an excellent choice for a handheld emulation machine. In addition to playing the PSP library off a memory stick and running multiple third-party emulators, a hacked PSP could take advantage of the Sony-developed PlayStation emulator to play most of the PS1 library. Most 2D systems can be emulated reasonably well, although users can run into speed and compatibility issues for systems as old as the SNES. Portable hardware has progressed in the years since the PSP, and users will now generally be better served by a newer handheld or even their smartphone, which can usually run a more up-to-date slate of emulators in addition to PPSSPP to cover the PSP library.
The PSP Custom Firmware 6.61-Pro-C2 (installation guide, latest version) will work on all PSP models from the original PSP to the PSP Go and even the E1000, all you need is to be running the official 6.60 or 6.61 firmware to install and use this custom firmware.
Note: on the 15/01/2015 Sony released PSP firmware 6.61, some three and a half years after the last 6.60 update. It's of no benefit to you updating to 6.61 after all this time, however the custom firmware has now been updated to support 6.61.
The specific emulator versions compatible with the Half-Byte Loader can be found listed on the official site. Emulators for OFW are meant to run on unmodified firmware, a list for that is also on the HBL forums.
