Use the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for PSP Gaming!

greg | August 26, 2007

Quite a nifty hack jay123_2 has managed to pull off using a combination of pre-existing apps/tools for the PSP & Windows. Now play PSP games using the Xbox 360 wireless controller!

Requirements:

Instructions:

  • Run configure_joypad.exe from the USBHostFS package
  • Configure your Xbox 360 wireless controller & save the profile
  • Start usbhostfs.exe
  • Start iR shell and go to iR configuration settings; set options accordingly:
    Redirect APP View to Host: Enable
    Redirect Keypad to Host: Via usbhost0
    Allow Adhoc PC Connection for Homebrew: Enable
  • Configure NetHost settings so they reflect your home network
  • Save & test it out

At a loss? Confused? Check out the discussion thread for further assistance. Nice work, dude.

Seems to lag. I rather have both analog buttons to work for FPS games.

Nice work! love the Development scene.

I would love to see the logitech wireless controllers working! I use them between my ps2 and pc. Enabled by using a $5 doller 2 port ps2 controller to usb adaptor that allows me to use the two logitech ps2 controllers on my pc.
Then I would have 3 uses for those sweet controllers. Again excellent work.

He’s using the wrong USBHostfs for the Xbox controller. read here http://trading-post.sytes.net:6969/forum/viewtopic.php?t=250

If you buy that 360 PC receiver from Amazon in the link Greg gives, you can actually save one whole cent. What a bargain, eh?

why doesnt anyone get the point of this ????

1.psp doesnt have 2 anologs so theres no point in thinking it could work with 2 anologs tho the second anolog could be mapped as buttons so in theory yeh it can work for fps games.

2.this little program will be a god send when you have your psp hooked up to your tv and your sitting back playing a game with a wireless controller.

great work !!!! kudos

Very true. “Oh, I can’t use 2 analog’s in FPS? WTF, useless.”

It’s a hack to use X360 controller, not a game hack to change the controls.

Well I can understand this would be pointless for PSP games since it only has one analog stick but what about PSX emus? If it works I wonder if it also enable rumble?

Reconfig the 2nd analog to the buttons… Then Switch setting on MPO BAM you’re a headshot aiming moving machine!
