03 Back From the Drawer | The PSP in 2025

What if that old PSP sitting in your drawer wasn’t outdated — but quietly waiting for its second life?

In this episode, we take a fresh look at Sony’s iconic handheld & explore how, in 2025, it’s become one of the most capable & affordable ways to experience retro gaming.

From Sonic 2 & Final Fantasy VII to homebrew apps, emulation magic, & even modern Wi-Fi support, a modded PSP is more powerful than ever...& maybe even more fun than it was back in the day.

Whether you grew up w/ the PSP or just dusted one off… this one’s for you.
