Running PSP Games on Android

PPSSPP for Android

PPSSPP is free to use and can be installed from the Play Store. One you have the application, the app will ask you to load a game CSO or ISO file. The app does not include any game files and you will have to copy the ISO files of the games you want to play manually.
If you have a PSP UMD Disc, you can easily convert it to an ISO file and later to a CSO file.

Convert to ISO
To Convert I copied this tutorial from guidingtech.com 
For the post, I am considering that you are already running the LCFW recovery on your PSP with PRO VHS menu. If you have not yet hacked your PSP and installed the firmware, do go through their guide on installing custom firmware on PSP version 6.60, the latest firmware version.
We will mount the UMD disks using the USB connection instead of memory stick and copy the contained ISO file. To begin with, when you are on main PSP CXMB menu, press the Select button to open the PRO VHS menu. In the PRO VHS menu, navigate to USB Device (usually the third option), and you will find Memory Stick selected by default. Use PSP navigation keys to select UMD Disk and exit the VHS menu.

 

Now insert a UMD disk in PSP and after connecting it to your computer using a data cable, go to PSP Settings and select Initialize USB Connection. By default, PSP mounts your memory stick but thanks to PRO VHS menu, this time it will mount the UMD disk instead.

Having done that, open the Windows Explorer to find the ID of the UMD as a removable drive. Open the drive to find the game ISO file. You can now copy the ISO file to your computer.

Note: You might see some free space available on UMD in Windows Explorer but don’t try to copy anything. As I didn’t copy a thing, I don’t know what could happen, but it’s always better not to mess with these things.

You can now copy all the UMD’s you largely own as ISO files and play them on PSP if you are running a custom firmware. To play the games, mount the PSP’s memory card and transfer the ISO files to MS root\ISO folder.

Converting ISO to CSO

After you have copied the ISO from the UMD disks you legally own, download and run CISO XP – ISO to CSO tool on your computer. The tool is very simple to use. All you need to do is drag and drop the ISO file you want to convert. The tool will automatically set the destination path same as the source path and begin the conversion.

You can also select the compression level you want for the CSO file. While the level 9 gives the best compression ratio, this might produce some lag while playing games on your PSP. For the first attempt go for a 9, but if you notice lags and delay in the game, reduce the compression level in the next attempt.

Conclusion

You can now copy the CSO file to the PSP ISO folder to play the games. I have read about people getting lags while playing heavy games like GTA, but when I tried the trick on my Fifa Street 2 ISO file, I was pretty impressed. Even after compressing the 861 MB ISO to 219 MB CSO, I didn’t experience any lag on my PSP E-1004 Street. See how it works out for you.
