A small company called Retro Mod Works is selling PSP mods that put Sony’s handheld inside a PS2-like shell, adds Bluetooth support, and connects to your TV.
What if you could turn a PSP with a broken screen into a miniature PS2, connect a Bluetooth controller to it, and play PSP games on your TV? That’s the idea behind Retro Mod Works’ PS Placeable, a mod that “consolizes” the PSP and was featured yesterday in a video from the YouTube channel Macho Nacho Productions. Retro Mod Works charges $274.99 for a prebuilt PS Placeable.
It’s not clear when the DIY parts will ship — we’ve asked Retro Mod Works and will update if we get a reply. The primary person behind the project, named Dan, told Macho Nacho host Tito Perez that he “hated the idea of buying digital games” for which he has physical copies, and wanted a way to add Bluetooth controller support while preserving the UMD drive.
