Video: PSP controlled using PS/2 mouse

Here’s a rather cool, if unwieldy, mod for the Sony PlayStation Portable. QJ.NET forums member TokyoDrift has posted a video on the PSP Development forums showing an unmodded PS/2 (“PS/2”, not “PS2“) mouse connected to a PSP. It even works as an input device for games.

Here’s a rather cool, if unwieldy, mod for the Sony PlayStation Portable. QJ.NET forums member TokyoDrift has posted a video on the PSP Development forums showing an unmodded PS/2 (“PS/2”, not “PS2“) mouse connected to a PSP.

The video also shows TokyoDrift playing through Coded Arms using the mouse. Pretty cool, really, even if it does seem a bit cumbersome. Here’s what TokyoDrift has to say about it on the YouTube video description:

Okay. That’s it. I fixed all the bugs and made a hooking plugin. I can play games using the mouse now. When the plugin starts the mouse is being re-initialized, that’s against data inconsistency. It all works so far. The next thing will be making a circiut board.

Check it out below. You can also head on over to the PSP Development forums to discuss this mod.
