You can do many cool things with PSP homebrew, and in this instructable I cam going to teach you how to use your PSP as a joystick for playing games, but there is also a program that allows you to use your joystick as your mouse.
Here are the materials needed for this instructable:

EDIT: I made this instructable in December of 2006. At the time, 2.8 was the highest firmware that could be downgraded. Check to see the latest version that is able to be downgraded.

A PSP that can have homebrew on it. ( 2.80 or lower firmware)
A wireless router or wireless access point that is already configured on your PSP via infrastructure mode.
The PSP Wifi controller homebrew application
Total Game Control

All of the above are direct links to the download. Here are the websites for those three programs.

Step 1: Installing Wifi Controller on your PSP

After you have downloaded Wifi Controller, now it is time to install and configure it. First, we need to find your IP address. For this, go to Start-> Run, and type in cmd. Then when command prompt comes up, type in ipconfig. Copy down the IP address. After this, open the Wificontroller zip folder. Extract it to somewhere where you know it is. Then copy the PSP folder (inside 1.0 or 1.5 folder) to the root of your PSP. If you have firmware 1.5, install the 1.5 PSP folder, and if you have 1.00 or 1.51+, install the 1.0 PSP folder. Then open the PSP folder, then Game, then wifi controller on your PSP. After this, click on wifi.cfg and edit it with notepad. Replace "" with the IP address you copied earlier.

ugh! this is so annoying! all the instructions are for xp or 2000, i can't figure out a thing on my new vista!

Whats wrong. And the IP address you need is the one from your router/modem. Not your actual IP address.
It won't work with vista. The ppjoy can't be added as new hardware. worked in Windows 7,Which is like vista. You must be doing something wrong
It doesn't matter now. We returned our Vista and got a much better XP for a much better price. And I had a psp 3000 anyway but that doesn't matter either cuz my dog ate it.
Your dog ate your psp? Its time you eat your dog....Are you Chinese? :P
lol no. and he just cracked the screen and a few buttons. I suppose I could just get a replacement screen. After it happened i was playing spiderman with just sound, so everything else works.

Exactly Why I Dont Own A Dog Lol

Ya it was depressing...
install xp as a second os on your hdd so you can do XP stuff

Is it possible to do this with a DS lite????
yeah XP
nateh202 (author)  dashman946 years ago
I'm sure its possible, but I'm not sure if there is something out there for it.
Well heres just the thing. It controls the computer via VNC and you can actually see the computer screen on the DS. Im sure there will be a slight delay between your DS movements and the actual computer movements (like windows remote control).

Hmm.. is it recognizing the PSP?
intheroom5 years ago
It works on PSP 2000 with FW 5.03. Though, for that I had to arrange somethings for myself, things that weren't written here. Like for an example running the file WiFi Controller inside the PC folder.
