If anybody knows or has imported PoPoLoCrois, does it require a firmware update from 1.50? Does anybody know concerning The Legend of Heroes and any firmware requirements? I don't want to waste $40 on a game that forces me to update my firmware, thus eliminating the emulation potentials of the PSP. Unless I want to wait for someone to hack newer firmware versions, I might need to invest in a second PSP--maybe one of those aesthetically pleasing white ones.
In light of PoPoLoCrois and The Legend of Heroes (among numerous new releases) coming out for the PSP in only a few weeks, I thought we might populate this thread with individual reports concerning each PSP game and the minimum firmware required for it (i.e., does the game force you to update your firmware from 1.50). A friend of mine erroneously updated his firmware to play the new arcade classics game released for the PSP and lost the ability to run home-brew, and I don't want to make a similar mistake. This thread should make an excellent resource for those who love the PSP's emulation capabilities, but still look forward to playing the new releases.
