    PPSSPP v0.8.1.24 (PSP emu for Pandora)

    ptitSeb ported PPSSPP to the OpenPandora handheld. PPSSPP is an open source project, licensed under the GPL 2.0 (or later).

PPSSPP can thus run on quite low-spec hardware, including stronger Android phones and tablets, as long as there’s support for OpenGL ES 2.0.

    * In sync with git (v0.8.1 now).
    * some new options to play with (like over/underclock virtual CPU/GPU).
