Literally the simplest PSC custom-ware setup ive seen on youtube. You got me running in 30 min off a whim with an old pcs in the closet. Thank you so much for this, man!
Finally got round to doing this, incredibly straightforward thanks to this video guide. Amazing work and thanks! Do you have a guide regarding adding other systems and games onto this such as gameboy etc?
That's awesome! I'm glad the video was easy to follow! I only have how to add the PSP so far. I will need to get on making one for other company's systems.
Great video, just wanted to mention for those unaware, the USB current limit mod may help with USB compatibility issues, you can also use a USB powered hub as unsightly as it may be. You can find more info on the USB current limit mod linked in our wiki which you've already linked to above.
Thank you thank you thank you! I'm so glad I stuck around to the end, I upgraded to a cruzer glide 128gb from a 4gb 2.0 that i had in high school lol, Cheers mate 🇦🇺 🍺
Thanks a bunch for your videos man. I don't think i could have done the mod if i didn't have you walking me through it step by step with this and the nes games. You made it really easy. I do have a question i was hoping you could help me with. How do you get true analog working? All i have is the d pad mapped to the left stick and never anything on the right stick. I tried using a retro fighters defender controller and going into retro arch input settings and setting it to retro gaming pad with analog but nothing. I turned on analog for the left stick it works well but only for the nes games and cant do both with analog at one time. Also tried the quick menu way of selecting which port gets standard or analog. Also tried an xbox1 and ps4 duelshock controller with an 8bitdo adapter 2 black. The ps4 controller will not pair but works with the charging cable. The xbox1 controller pairs but glitches out the games at around the 20 min mark with slowdown sound issues and inputs not registering, still no analog. I heard the grey 8bitdo adapter works well but i cannot find one anywhere. Is the red brown one a good bet? Also i heard i have to downgrade the 8bitdo's firmware to 2.0 to get it to pair with the ps4 controller but i don't see an option for that on their site. Sorry for the massive post but wanted to let you know what i was up against.
have to try this update, microcenter blue 64gb and power splitter arrived in the mail, maybe 15 minutes later its good to go, thanks for the tutorial :3
Hmm this doesn't work for me. I have the 128gb usb 2.0 Scandisk drive you showed, install files on the usb drive as shown once formatted as FAT32....it shows all files o nthe usb drive on the pc....the PS classic doesn't do anything though when you turn it on except go to its standard screen.
@UltimusPrime I'm using the USB stick plugged into slot 2 as shown. I've seen though on the support page it only says Scandisk USB stick upto 64gb is supported...
I tried same last night with SanDisk 128gb cruzer...didn't work. I guess we need that data cable to draw more power. Or do the initial mod with 16gb USB
I've followed the guide down to the letter, but Project Eris just won't install itself onto the console. Even though I purchased one of the compatible USB drives, I think that might be the issue
You may need to check the files and verify they match the video. If your flash drive doesn't read, then it won't install but I've never run in to this issue
You don't have to open the system at all. It is a soft mod. So just changing the software on the system. It is not illegal if you are playing backups of games you already own...technically
Do you have to change anything if you want to play a game from a different system? So would the process be the same if I used a rom backup of afterburner for the sega master system?
Hi, I have a video showing how to play NES games on the PS Classic so you can see the process for adding other system's games! Hope it helps ua-cam.com/video/AKizOiOfVVo/v-deo.html
I'm not sure the exact reason why you need to use the different formats but some devices only read certain formats. This mod just requires the different for.ats for different stages for reading the files
Odd thing with mine is even after a successful mod, it just kicks me off the games. I can be playing a game, whichever, and within a few minutes the screen goes blank and goes back to the main menu, any suggestions???
Thank you for checking it out! Yes you can. I started by using the 2nd controller port. If you have a larger USB drive it may not have enough power and that will be when you need to use the OTG cable in the back micro USB port.
The powered USB Drive did not work for the loading of ERIS for me even with the adapter and one on the list. So, I ended up going to a low power 16gb and it worked. NVM. Stuck on the 2nd NTFS loading now... Oof...
While copying the files from the project eris folder to the flash drive the first time, it said some of the files had properties that couldn’t be copied to it, does that affect anything?
Hi i need a lil help over there please I use project eris but the success last like a sneeze i do this like an hour ago and now the console can't recognize the usb reformated and formated in exfat or NTFS in the port 2 i use a usb hub too or directly form the usb port before it recognize the usb and the usb is fine it works good i can store files and read files etcetera i don't know what to do now i connect the controller 1 and 2 in each port and both works if someone know what i need to do please let me know.
This worked perfectly for me. So your guide will work for everyone, thank you. But I would like the bios from my PS Classic. Is that in one of these files?
What size USB is sufficient for adding more games please? E.G. how many will a 16gb USB allow me to add which you are using and does it need to be 2.0 to not overload power?
I use 8bitdo controllers. They have a USB dongle that lets you play any wireless controller so you could use the PS4 or PS5 controllers with it wirelessly
Tried to mod last night. Spent hours transferring files etc couldn't get it to work. I got 128gb USB 2.0 SanDisk Cruz glider. Do u have start with a 16gb drive for the hack???
Mine is showing on screen "Running on FAT32 is NOT supported! Backup USB to PC, reformat and copy back over to proceed!" Not sure what I could be doing wrong, please help 😕
Hi! Idk if you've tried it already, but to my understanding, you do need to use the 2nd port and a compatible flash drive to install Eris, as the unmodded PSC won't recognize the OTG otherwise. The modded PSC unlocks the ability to use OTG cables for flash drives as well as other USB accessories, like Wi-Fi adapters to manage your files via Wi-Fi with another special program on your PC, or wireless adapters for controllers, like those made by 8BitDo that allow you to use 8BitDo controllers, Wiimotes, Wii U Pro controllers, PS4/PS5 and Xbox controllers.
That's a good question. I don't have one so I'm not 100% sure. I would assume it doesn't because it doesn't run windows, therefore it wouldn't be able to install the program. I could be wrong though? Anyone else able to answer this one that has a Chromebook??
I did everything and when I plug the USB into the p.s classic it just goes into normal game screen I'm using a san disk cruiser glide 2.0 I also tried a san disk 128gb and same thing I am using the data cable and the san disk cruiser is compatible sdcz60 any suggestions?
I did have this issue a few times. I had to wait for a while before it would boot up. I switched flash drives and it worked again. I am not sure what causes it though.
@UltimusPrime thanks for the reply I ordered a power usb hub I have an otg connector already from when I modded the snes classic which went fine so I know this is either a compatibility issue or a power issue I'll try and re boot it up and see what happens I want to figure this out so I could pass on the info to others that may be struggling to figure it out so far I've tried 2 usb with no luck and I ha e 2 more on the way to test them out.
@UltimusPrime just to clarify both the 32gb and 128gb usb came formatted I'm fat32 I reformatted them anyway with no issue and added the files to the root of both storage the 128gb is not on the compatibility list (san disk ultra flair 3.0)but the 32gb cruzer glide is on the list its the 128gb capacity not sure if that matters same code both 2.0.
@UltimusPrime so I figured out the issue I used a usb power adaptor the atolla 204 3.0 hub its $15 on Amazon so it was a power issue solved so anyone having this issue get a power hub and connect the USB to that power it on connect to 2nd controller port and then connect power cable wait for the light then power on it should boot up
You could put it on the system memory but it only has 16gb so you wouldn't get a very big library. I suggest putting it on a flash drive. They are super cheap.
@@UltimusPrime well only downloaded about 12 games are so. How do you put those games in the system memory? This is what I liked about the NES and SNES classic.
I'm not 100% sure but you should be able to. I know there are ways to bring it back to factory but I'm not sure what it entails to do this and mod it again. I would have to look in to it.
Sorry quick question, i need to find 16gb compatible flash stick to put mod on, i bought 128gb flash stick which is on the compatibility list and i want to use it for games on the last step. Can i buy exactly the same flash stick (the same brand and MPN) but 16gb just to put mod on and transfer files to 128gb after? Or do i have to buy stick from the list.
Why do you need a specific allocation size number? Edit: I have the ROM for a Jojo fighting game released on PS1. It runs on DuckStation, so how can I transfer the ROM but keep my save data?
Even without adding the extra flash, the mod is worth it just for replacing all the PAL versions with NTSC versions. That said, the quality of emulation on the classic is still so poor that I think I'd rather save up for an ODE for my original PS.
Strange, I have seen this comment a few times about the run speed or quality of the emulation. I personally don't have any issues running any of the emulators?
@@UltimusPrime Admittedly I have a lot less experience playing of these, having only tried out a friend's while they showed me how "disappointing" it was, but I recall finding out that a number of the PAL games were designed to run at 50hz and forcibly played at 60hz causing issue, while others had lots of little graphical anomalies breaking up geometry a bit more than I see on original hardware. However, it occurs to me that this mod very well might also provide a better emulator as well, which might mitigate things. One thing's for sure, if I end up owning one down the line, I'm immediately replacing the PAL versions with NTSC to resolve the poor decisions made there, if nothing else. Thank you again for the guide.
@@Dark_Jaguar I also heard rumors about poor quality of PS classic, they even get rid of PSP/Vita's PSX emulator and put a brand new one. I am trying to revive my old dusted PSX with paralel port and buy a PSIO adapter to play directly from SD cards. Wish me luck!
@@OneDonTadeo Hope it goes well for you! The PSIO adapter is certainly an easier route than installing the optical drive emulator, though the tradeoff is less compatibility. If you don't have soldering skills, it's an understandable option!
@@UltimusPrime thanks very much....I have large capacity storage but it won't work because its 3.0 and resorted to a 8gb usb that is an older version like 2.0 and it worked....
Which Sonic game are you trying to play? If it's for the Genesis, I recommend making a folder for Genesis and not just a standalone "Sega" folder because Sega made more than just one console and it makes it easier to find your games. If it's Sonic Adventure, I think you'll need a bios for the Dreamcast but I'm not 100% sure because I don't emulate Dreamcast games. Likewise for Saturn Sonic games, you'll probably need a Bios file. It also depends on which core you pick. Don't pick Blastem if you're trying to play a Genesis Sonic game, I could never get it to run properly under Retroarch. (The standalone emulator for PC works fine though... not sure why it doesn't work for me in Retroarch...)
Any USB drive that isn't compatible can work if you format it with "mini tool partition wizard" and set the acollation size to 32 kilobytes. Delete the partition, create a new one, pick fat32 and then name it SONY in all caps at the top the change the little box on the right to say 32 kilobytes then press okay and then don't forget to hit apply at the bottom left so it will actually do the work. There might be another program or whatever. I think changing the thing to 32 made it work. I don't know
Can you send me a modded flash drive? With all games already loaded. Shooting games wrestling games twisted metal 2 007 , silent hills, syphon filters, stuff like that Tony hawk pro skater was good

Thank you so much for checking out the video! Glad I could help! Enjoy the mod!
I followed guide but it not loading eris when I put files on usb card??
Same for me said my 32GB card was not big enough to fit Eris more or less in the games
Hello Friend.
can I Flash that directly with the 128gb Sandisk Stick and the Cable?
Because you flash that first with the 16gb Stick.
Sascha
Yes you can. I just started by doing it directly and then switched it over to the OTG cable. You can do it directly aswell
Does this work with games from other consoles?
You can do NES, Master System, Gameboy, Super Nintendo, Genesis, some PSP games, Ds pretty decent along with PS1 all through retroarch
Hmm this doesn't work for me. I have the 128gb usb 2.0 Scandisk drive you showed, install files on the usb drive as shown once formatted as FAT32....it shows all files o nthe usb drive on the pc....the PS classic doesn't do anything though when you turn it on except go to its standard screen.
Are you using the OTG cable or a powered USB hub?
@UltimusPrime I'm using the USB stick plugged into slot 2 as shown. I've seen though on the support page it only says Scandisk USB stick upto 64gb is supported...

It was the cable that was the issue! I just bought a powered USB hub and got it working. Thanks for the tutorial!
What kind of powered usb did you buy? Does the cable have to match the power cable or just the USB cable?
Glad you found the solution! I don't have a powered USB hub but I should really get one for the future.
What do you do if Eris doesn't start installing itself?
You may need to check the files and verify they match the video. If your flash drive doesn't read, then it won't install but I've never run in to this issue
I got a s8 ultra tab with ppsspp n psx with all games for psp n psx on a usb runs fine also got psx mini too
Can you use a portable HD with the OTG Cable?
I followed your steps but when you put usb into the ps classic it doesnt boot eris it just boots playstation
Does The Mod Require Me To Open Up The PlayStation Classic By Unscrewing It? Is This Mod Also Legal?
You don't have to open the system at all. It is a soft mod. So just changing the software on the system. It is not illegal if you are playing backups of games you already own...technically
does the usb stick need to stay in the ps classic when you have stuff downloaded?
Yes it does. The USB stick has all the information to play what you have downloaded.
Do you have to change anything if you want to play a game from a different system? So would the process be the same if I used a rom backup of afterburner for the sega master system?

where do u get your roms? are those sony ps1 games? or ps2 games? works for ps3 games?
If you Google ps1 roms, the top sites will come up for what need. This is a PS1 and will only run systems at PS1 or lower like NES, SNES, Gamegear etc
Where did you get the Roms of your games ?
If you google ROMs, lots of sites come up for ROMs.

Is there anyway to make the games run in fullscreen during gameplay?
subscribed!!!!
Awesome! Thank you so much!
Where I can download more games ?
Unfortunately i can't give you that information but Google is your best best to find sites
Wait so I have to use the smaller 16gb flash drive to mod the classic first before I can transfer everything over to my bigger flash drive??
No I just had a 16gb first so I used that then upgraded to a larger one after. If your flash drive is compatible, you are ok
@@UltimusPrime thank you!
You're welcome!
Can you play multi-disc games with this program?
Yes you can! It gives you the option to switch the disc
So between eris, bleemsinc and autobleem whats the best one? Preferably with the simplicity of autobleem and that wont brick the actual console?
I like Project Eris. I used Autobleem originally and it was good but Project Eris I found was just more compatible
What's the difference when you reformat your flashdrive between ExFAT and NTFS?
I'm not sure the exact reason why you need to use the different formats but some devices only read certain formats. This mod just requires the different for.ats for different stages for reading the files
great, thanks buddy
No problem! Thanks for watching!
Do the PS1 games need to be converted to eboot or just downloaded and unzipped?
Just downloaded and unzipped. No need to convert
@@UltimusPrime thank you
@NeRoMaximoff no problem!
Is it really necessary to precisely plug it in like that every time?
Every tutorial I read and watched shows to do it that way. I wasn't ready to try it any other way
If I get a ps classic now, do I have to unplug and follow the pattern every time I turn it on?
No you don't! Only for the initial setup, then you can use the system the same as normal.
@@UltimusPrime thanks! Looking for a nice all in one mod before finding a classic console
Installed Eris. So can I now leave the USB in the back and just power on?
Odd thing with mine is even after a successful mod, it just kicks me off the games. I can be playing a game, whichever, and within a few minutes the screen goes blank and goes back to the main menu, any suggestions???
Strange. I haven't encountered that yet. Might have to rest the setting and if not maybe have to google it?
How do you add games?
Thanks the infos. Just a question. Can i play from usb if i left that in the 2nd controller's place? Thx!
Thank you for checking it out! Yes you can. I started by using the 2nd controller port. If you have a larger USB drive it may not have enough power and that will be when you need to use the OTG cable in the back micro USB port.
ROMs don't seem to be loading despite being put into transfer folder?
That could either be the ROM format, the flash drive isn't compatible, or it's too large of a capacity and needs the OTG cable.
Take the cue and the bin out the folder and put in in transfer folder
@@vampwatkins3462 THANK YOU!

good ultimus prime😮
Are the games running at60 fps?
Can i still play local multiplayer with it?
Yes you can. As long as you have the OTG cable or a powered USB hub to free up the second controller slot
Where do the roms come from?
Unfortunately those need to be found on your own but you can Google "ps1 roms" and the first couple of sites will work.
While copying the files from the project eris folder to the flash drive the first time, it said some of the files had properties that couldn’t be copied to it, does that affect anything?

You can if you install the other emulators on it
What size USB is sufficient for adding more games please? E.G. how many will a 16gb USB allow me to add which you are using and does it need to be 2.0 to not overload power?
I can't tell you exactly how many games but it's a decent amount. I found that the 64 let me put every game I wanted on to the system.
The power just isn't sufficient on its own to power much more than the 16gb I found. So I suggest the OTG cable or a powered usb hub
Are there any wireless controllers you can recommend that work with the PSC?
I use 8bitdo controllers. They have a USB dongle that lets you play any wireless controller so you could use the PS4 or PS5 controllers with it wirelessly

Where do I get roms?
You can find them online just by searching on Google. The first couple of sites work great. I can't post links on here for where they are.
does anyone have a backup of there ps classic my flash drive is missing with it on
I think its console specific so any other backup wouldnt work
Did you not save the back up on your pc?
I’m scared if I jailbreak my ps classic and it fails
I haven't seen anyone brick the system. I have done quite a few and never had a bricked PSC but there is always a small chance
Why do you need a specific allocation size number?
Edit: I have the ROM for a Jojo fighting game released on PS1. It runs on DuckStation, so how can I transfer the ROM but keep my save data?
I cant get my flashdrive to do the fat32
Hi, did you use the GUIFormat tool? You won't be able to format it to FAT32 without this tool.
Project Eris doesn't come up, is it my USB drive.
Are you using the OTG cable? If you aren't, it would not have enough power draw. If you do have one, it could be that the USB drive isn't compatible.
@@UltimusPrime Would a powered USB hub work
Even without adding the extra flash, the mod is worth it just for replacing all the PAL versions with NTSC versions.
That said, the quality of emulation on the classic is still so poor that I think I'd rather save up for an ODE for my original PS.
Strange, I have seen this comment a few times about the run speed or quality of the emulation. I personally don't have any issues running any of the emulators?
@@UltimusPrime Admittedly I have a lot less experience playing of these, having only tried out a friend's while they showed me how "disappointing" it was, but I recall finding out that a number of the PAL games were designed to run at 50hz and forcibly played at 60hz causing issue, while others had lots of little graphical anomalies breaking up geometry a bit more than I see on original hardware. However, it occurs to me that this mod very well might also provide a better emulator as well, which might mitigate things. One thing's for sure, if I end up owning one down the line, I'm immediately replacing the PAL versions with NTSC to resolve the poor decisions made there, if nothing else. Thank you again for the guide.

I also heard rumors about poor quality of PS classic, they even get rid of PSP/Vita's PSX emulator and put a brand new one.
I am trying to revive my old dusted PSX with paralel port and buy a PSIO adapter to play directly from SD cards.
Wish me luck!
@@OneDonTadeo Hope it goes well for you! The PSIO adapter is certainly an easier route than installing the optical drive emulator, though the tradeoff is less compatibility. If you don't have soldering skills, it's an understandable option!
Remember that some games were made for PAL first, like Medievil.
I need help, does a SD card work for hacking the ps1 classic?
Yes it does work but you would need a USB card reader for it to connect to the PS classic
@@UltimusPrime thanks very much....I have large capacity storage but it won't work because its 3.0 and resorted to a 8gb usb that is an older version like 2.0 and it worked....
It won’t let me put anything on the drive once I made it ntfs
You may have to try a different drive. I had issues with a few drives until I found the one I used in the video
what happens if you dont wait till it turns
orange lol
You have a chance at bricking it. Small chance. I've never had it happen but it has a chance
I can't get sonic on it I try everything you show
Which Sonic game are you trying to play? If it's for the Genesis, I recommend making a folder for Genesis and not just a standalone "Sega" folder because Sega made more than just one console and it makes it easier to find your games. If it's Sonic Adventure, I think you'll need a bios for the Dreamcast but I'm not 100% sure because I don't emulate Dreamcast games. Likewise for Saturn Sonic games, you'll probably need a Bios file. It also depends on which core you pick. Don't pick Blastem if you're trying to play a Genesis Sonic game, I could never get it to run properly under Retroarch. (The standalone emulator for PC works fine though... not sure why it doesn't work for me in Retroarch...)
Is there anyone selling preloaded usb sticks like this so that I don't have to bother with this process or hunt down ROM's myself?
They're usually on Amazon, but it's much cheaper to buy your own drive and set it up. Etsy might have them too.
I guess I need to buy a PS classic
Yes you do. Such a great little system. You can do so much with it.
Wth it did work
Any USB drive that isn't compatible can work if you format it with "mini tool partition wizard" and set the acollation size to 32 kilobytes.
Delete the partition, create a new one, pick fat32 and then name it SONY in all caps at the top the change the little box on the right to say 32 kilobytes then press okay and then don't forget to hit apply at the bottom left so it will actually do the work.
There might be another program or whatever. I think changing the thing to 32 made it work. I don't know
yeah ig but i mean im not finna buy ts
Autobleem is simpler....
Can I get the PS Classic bios during this process?
W
Can you send me a modded flash drive? With all games already loaded. Shooting games wrestling games twisted metal 2 007 , silent hills, syphon filters, stuff like that Tony hawk pro skater was good
Unfortunately that's not possible. You need to follow steps in the creation of the drive that uses YOUR PS classic console only.
Eris? dude your like 3 years behind ,
👌
It is mandatory to have a PS Classic or you can use another
How do you get the roms?
If you Google it, the first few sites work well. I can't give any other details on roms.
Hey! I installed the ps classic anniversary theme and when i choose it, save and reboot. It doesnt work? Any idea ?
