If you spend a lot of money on PSP games or if you are a parent whose son or daughter spends too much money on PSP games this story is for you.

I’m going to tell you about a few little known facts that will save you tons of money and still allow you to enjoy your PSP!

One of the sad facts about games is that they become obsolete relatively fast. The game console manufacturers make sure of that. They always want you to buy the latest while your current console is still very much functioning perfectly. It is just the nature of the industry.

But why should you pay top dollar for every game that comes along? What if you could buy the same game for less than half price? Or what if you could have access to games through a membership program where you can have access to over 100,000 games for the price of 1 game! Now wouldn’t that be nice

Lets examine some of these options.

In most many major cities here in the USA there are used game stores that sell perfectly fine games at greatly discounted prices. They usually have a sign that says buy sell or trade. These are excellent sources for bargains because they buy the games for peanuts and sell them at a 3x to 5x margin yes that is 5 times the price they paid for it. I would not recommend trading with the bigger chains because they will give you the least for your trade ins. Seek out the smaller stores who will be more hungry for your used games and therefore will give you more for your trade ins because the more games they have the better their chance of selling them and also the more valuable they become in their customers’ eyes because of the selection they have.

Another often overlooked source for buying games at a discount is Ebay. Yes the granddaddy of all deals himself You have to be careful though who you deal with. One of the things that has made Ebay so successful is their vendor and buyer rating system. It basically allows you to see who is reliable and who is not. My recommendation is that you only buy from sellers that have a 89% or better positive rating and have at least about 75 or higher transactions or feedbacks . You may be tempted to deal with someone with a lesser rating than that because they have the lowest price but I would strongly advice you against it.

The best option for buying PSP games is signing up for PSP Game download memberships. Basically you pay once every year and you have access to a lot of psp game downloads for only about $40 – $60 dollars!

You may need to buy some accessories for your console but the long term savings will be well worth the investment. There are a lot of those PSP game download membership sites out there and here also you must be careful who you deal with.

A common problem some of the bad sites have is site outages and ultra slow downloads. Also some will limit your access to a specific amount of games and sometimes do not even have good selection of games. I researched some of them and provided a link to the best of the best. One of these will give you access to whopping 100,000 games that you can download and their download speeds are good as well.

I have provided links in the box below to the best sites. I hope you found this information helpful and if you did please rate it accordingly

There are places where you can downlod free PSP game save . These save game files can then be transferred to your PSP, and you can play the game from your PSP’s memory stick.

What You Need To Have :

PSP Console

Save game archive file

USB Mini cable

PC running Windows with a free USB port

Step 1: Unzip Your Game Save File.

You can get game save for different sources. It can be the game you have saved to emergency purposes.

Make Sure You Have Your Game Save File in your computer already. If the Game Save is in ZIP format, you need to unzip the file.

After unzip, you will see a folder looks like:

“ULJM05006_DATA” (this is just a sample only, the actual name could be different).

Step 2: Connect Your PSP To Your PC.

Once properly connected, you need to use File Explorer to go into the PSP folder of your PSP. Just like exploring any folders in your PC. At the top level, you should see these folders:

MP_ROOT, PSP

You need to go into “PSP” folder. In there, you will see these folders:

GAME, MUSIC, PHOTO, SAVEDATA

Go into “SAVEDATA”

Step 3: Copy The Game Save Into The “SAVEDATA” Folder of Your PSP.

You will have to copy your game save into this folder. Go back to where you have unzipped the game save. In this example, the sub-folder name is “ULJM05006_DATA”. Highlight the whole sub-folder and “copy” and paste inside the SAVEDATA folder.

You need to be careful not to over-write any sub-folders inside the SAVEDATA folder. For example, you you already have “ULJS00002″ and you game save name is the same, make sure you do not over-write it. Rename the original sub-folder first before you copy over.

Here you are. All Done! Disconnect your USB and you are ready to play the game on you PSP. You should be able to go into your PSP game console and load your game from SAVEDATA.
