[[PPSSPP]] (an acronym for '''PlayStation Portable Simulator Suitable for Playing Portably''') is a multi-platform, open-source [[PlayStation Portable emulators|PlayStation Portable emulator]] written in C++ with the aim of speed and portability. Its development is ongoing and is still in a beta state, but progress is fast and most games are already playable. It is also available as a [[libretro]] core for [[RetroArch]].

==Review==
Since its release in 2012, the emulator is currently capable of playing around than 1000 games, more than 90% of the PSP Library<ref name="Computability List" >http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=1473</ref>. It is very active and gets updated frequently. It's also significantly faster than JPCSP due to it being coded in C++ instead of Java. It is only recommended to use JPCSP if the game does not work in PPSSPP. It is worth noting that not all these games can be played on mobile devices. These devices, especially older ones, often have very poor OpenGL ES drivers, although the situation is improving.<ref name="PPSSPP FAQ">http://www.ppsspp.org/faq.html</ref>.
==System requirements==
===Desktop===
Any reasonably modern CPU will be just fine, and any GPU that can handle OpenGL 2.0 should have no issues. You should make sure to install the latest graphics drivers available though. Windows XP 7 is minimal requirement, and Windows 7 8 or later is recommended.
