Emulated~

If you have a PS Vita or PSTV on firmware version 3.60 to 3.73, you can turn it into a decent emulation device by installing the HENkaku homebrew enabler. If you're on the 3.60 firmware, you can obtain it here, for 3.65-3.73 use Final h-encore. Those on firmware versions prior to 3.60 can update manually by following the instructions here. Furthermore, on versions 3.60 and 3.65 it's possible to use a bootloader patch called enso, which loads HENkaku automatically at boot: Ensō for 3.60, 3.65. It's possible to downgrade firmware version with a tool called modoru.

PlayStation Custom Firmware brings you all the latest news for Custom Firmware and homebrews which are made available to the community. Free download of custom firmware and homebrews available. PSP PS PS2 PS3 PS4 and PSVita system supported. This Custom Firmware is a full custom firmware where it uses the pre-ipl exploit, and flashes a custom ipl to your PSP, such that the PSP will always be in CFW even after a cold reboot. This CFW is only available for PSP 1000s and fully hackable PSP 2000s (Non Ta-0088v3).
