NesterJ for PSP is a Famicom/Nintendo Entertainment System emulator for the Sony PSP.

Written by Ruka, it is a port of NNNesterJ (a NES Emulator on the Windows platform, modified from nesterj) with features arranged uniquely to the PSP version. It is also compatible with NNNesterJ's SRAM and STATE files.

Features

  • Save states.
  • Screenshots.
  • Famicom Disk System emulation.
  • TV out.
  • Speed mode toggles.
  • Show FPS.
  • Black and White mode.
  • Alternate palettes.
  • CPU clock frequency adjustment.
  • Sound frequency adjustment.
  • Use of extra sound channels.
  • Custom key mappings.
  • Custom backgrounds (in file browser).
  • Screen size adjustment.
  • GFX filtering.
  • Text/cursor color changing for the menu.
  • Cheats.
  • Other miscellaneous options.

Installation

For v1.13beta2 (without adhoc):

  • Create a folder in the form of /PSP/GAME/NesterJ/ on your Memory Stick.
  • Open NesterJ_v1_11, copy famicom.dat and MENU.png to the NesterJ folder.
  • Open NesterJ_v113beta2, copy EBOOT.PBP to the NesterJ folder.

For 1.20beta2 (with adhoc):

  • Create a folder in the form of /PSP/GAME/NesterJ/ on your Memory Stick.
  • Open NesterJ_v1_11, copy famicom.dat and MENU.png to the NesterJ folder.

You can place the rom (NES, ZIP) anywhere in the NesterJ folder or subdirectory.

Note: In order to play Famicom Disk System games (FDS), you will need to obtain the authentic FDS BIOS image. The file is 8kb and should be named disksys.rom. Place it in the same location as EBOOT.PBP file and you can check if the file is correct by selecting CHECK FDS BIOS in the menu.

User guide

Wifi network play

How to use:

  • Set PSP network settings to Adhoc. Start NesterJ and select the ROM you want to play against.

  • One party send connection request and the when the other party receive a connection request from another PSP, press the Circle key to accept.

Notes:

  • Both PSP requires a ROM image. Also, the NesterJ settings for each PSP must be the same.
  • It may occasionally stop responding during the communication test.
  • The sound is strange because the sound processing has not been adjusted yet.
  • Communication processing timing is slow.
  • It is designed to not use skip frames during NetPlay and the recommend CPU speed is 333MHz.

;Game Genie Code for 'Super Mario Bros (E)'
;Infinite lives for both players

;Always stay big
