PlayStation Portable system software
system software for PlayStation Portable
The PlayStation Portable has firmware that can get an update.[2] When one updates the firmware, the battery must be charged to at least 3 bars (i.e. 60%), and the PSP should not be switched off.[3] This may result in a brick and/or a constant startup BSOD or another screen "of death".[4] As of January 15, 2015, the latest firmware is 6.61.
