A new innovation in the retro gaming community now allows you to run your entire PS2 library directly from a $50 memory card, thanks to the Multi-Purpose Memory Card Emulation (MMCE) protocol.

I just added a SATA drive to my ps2 yesterday, and it plays ps2 games fine but I really want to play psx games. Is there a solution for this yet?

I modded my PS Mini for PS1 games. Its pretty simple.

Hell yeah, that sounds awesome. Does it have native composite video out? I wanna play on my crt without using an hdmi converter

You can use POPStarter to use the built-in software emulator, but it's not great. There's also FreeMCBoot and MechaPwn if burning discs isn't a problem (might only work on some models? I'm not sure)
