PPSSPP is a Sony PSP Emulator ported on Pandora by PtitSeb. Other versions exist (Android, Windows, Mac..)

Current stable version is 0.9.1.30 from Oct 6th 2013.

Adding to the Compatibility List

Choose a playability color that reflects a game's best playability state. Also include the clockspeed at which you ran it, for whichever Pandora version you tested. Please also indicate in the name of the Game whether the version is US/EU/JP, since compatibility may differ depending on regions. You may also add specific conditions you specified in the settings if they differ from the defaults. As for the SGC driver, please write "default" if you did not change your driver vs what was in the firmware.

Don't post a redundant entry unless you are using a different Pandora model and the playability differs from an existing entry. If a game's playability gets worse (new bugs, new crashes) in a new PPSSPP version, update the entry and add that to notes.

Playability Description
Fullspeed Games with a green background run at fullspeed and are fully playable from start to finish. If frameskip is required, add to notes.
Playable Games with a yellow background run slower than fullspeed, but are otherwise fully playable. Add problems/slowdowns to notes.
Incomplete Games with an orange background have playability issues and cannot be played from start to finish. This may include missing functionality (wifi) or game crashes. Add problems to notes.
Unplayable Games with a red background are unplayable. They either don't run at all, or don't get past the intro. Add any other oddities to notes.
N/A Games with a white background have not been fully tested. If you see one on this list, try it out and report back!

If you are inclined, post your forum username at the end of your notes so you can be contacted by PtitSeb about further debugging your problems.

Game Name and Region PPSSPP Version Pandora Model[1] SGX driver SZ version Frequency Notes on Settings Status
Lumines (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Frameskip is on but otherwise it runs fullspeed and without issues. Green
Lumines 2 (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Quite slow compared to Lumines 1, and the music keeps stuttering. Playable but not great... Yellow
Criminal Girls (JP) 0.9.1.31 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Very slow even though it's pure 2D. But playable, if you don't mind stuttering music and waiting a long time between dialogs... Yellow
Lunar Silver Star Harmony (JP) 0.9.1.31 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs almost perfectly, with just a little bit of sound stuttering here and there, but very minor. Otherwise, full speed. Green


Y's Seven (JP) 0.9.1.31 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs almost well, but there are several slow-downs during dialogs and the music tends to stutter. Playable, but needs a little more speed to be really great. Yellow
Star Ocean: The First Departure (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Working almost perfectly. The only issue is that the videos are distorted and you can only see a small portion of them (as if it was zoomed). The rest of the game works fine. Green
BlazBlue Continuum Shift (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Movies play perfectly, but the game is a bit slow during the fights. Very playable otherwise. Yellow
Final Fantasy Tactics(US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Slow but kind of acceptable, but it really slows down a lot when there are specific effects on screen (thunder, magic). Music stutters constantly. Videos issues as well, just like all other games. Yellow
The Legend Of Heroes - Trails In The Sky (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs very, very well. Some occasional slow-downs but otherwise very much full speed and smooth. Amazing! (Apart from video issues) Green
Akiba's Trip (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Sometimes running very close to full speed, but some other times slowing down, hence yellow. But still, quite playable. Sound stutters often, though. Yellow
Castlevania Chronicles (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs very much full speed but some cutscenes need to be skipped (somehow they get stuck...). Note that there is still stuttering sound and buffering effect in the videos, as usual. Green
Queen's Blade Spiral Chaos (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs full speed. No issue in game. Green
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos stop at some times and need to "buffer" apparently once in a while. Sound stutters often. 3D is quite slow in game and sound keeps stuttering. PLayable but not enjoyable at this stage. Yellow
Mana Khemia Student Alliance (EU) 0.9.1.30 Rebirth XXX 1.55 950 Mhz Sometimes a bit slow, slows down when a dialog window appears, but very playable. Yellow
Shining Ark (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1100 Mhz Sound stutters heavily in videos and the video appears to "buffer" several times in each sequence. 3D is OK in game, a little slow but very playable. At 1100 Mhz the sound stutters a little less. Playable. Yellow
WipeOut Pure (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Sound stutters heavily in videos and the video appears to "buffer" several times in each sequence. 3D is extremely slow in game, making it unplayable. There are visual artefacts on default settings (kind of blurry effects on screen) Orange
Lego Batman (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Sound stutters heavily in videos and the video appears to "buffer" several times in each sequence. 3D is extremely slow in game, making it unplayable. Some menus do not seem to display well and there is flickering at some points as well. Orange
Half Minute Hero (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Game is definitely full speed but there are some visual artifacts now and then. Otherwise fully playable. Yellow
Valkyria Chronicles 2 (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos have sound stuttering as for most videos in 0.9.1.30 version, but other than that the game is very much full speed and runs very well, with the occasional sound stuttering but overall I consider this one green. Green
Persona 3 Portable (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos work fine, but when entering in the game the screen remains black in most scenes, while one can hear the background sound. Because of that, the game is unplayable. Too bad. Red
Valkyrie Profile (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Black screen when launching the game. Some sound can be heard but nothing happens. Unplayable. Red
Little Big Planet (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Message when starting: cannot install data locally (data is corrupt) therefore the game refuses to start. Red
Sakura Taisen 1&2 (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos don't show up correctly, and drawings in the game suffer from super glitches making the screen unreadable. Unplayable. Red
Jeanne d'Arc (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos stutter a lot and the buffering effect is still noticeable. More problematic, the game is very slow and the characters sprites do not display at all in the game (only their shadows). Red
Ridge Racer 2 (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Works fine, Need Frameskip to 5 and no Framebuffer (no Mipmap also). Gameplay Speed is between 85% and 100%. Yellow
Velocity (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Works fine and seemingly fullspeed, but the music keeps stuttering. Yellow
Valkyria Chronicles 3 (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos have sound stuttering as for most videos in 0.9.1.30 version, but other than that the game is very much full speed and runs very well, with the occasional sound stuttering but overall I consider this one green. Green
Clannad (JP) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Runs perfectly. It's kind of expected since it's a visual novel, but still, music plays fine too. Green
Patapon 3 (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Videos stop at some times and need to "buffer" apparently once in a while (but do not stutter for sound). Game is a bit slow and sound keeps stuttering. Playable but not enjoyable at this stage. Yellow
Loco Roco 2 (EU) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Using simple bezier curves for speedup in Settings. Game is a bit slow when there are lots of elements on screen and it makes the sound stutter. Otherwise playable. Yellow
Disgaea (US) 0.9.1.30 1GHz 4.03.02 1.54 1000 Mhz Game is very slow and the sound keeps stuttering. Otherwise it seems to work... Yellow
