PSP mod allows the use of a SNES controller

Once upon a time there was a girl who had limited use of one of her hands. Not to worry, she is still able to game after mastering the use of a Super Nintendo controller. However, she also enjoys the PSP but is understandably reluctant to learn how to play it with one hand. What's a gal to do?

Fortunately, a clever bloke was commissioned to create a mod for her so she can use the SNES controller to play games on her PSP. Here's how it happened: he added a small socket originally intended for a cell phone, put together a custom cable and plug for the socket, then wired it to be used with the vintage controller. The mod even acts as a stand and keeps the PSP at an angle. A video of this in action, after the break:

Wow, that's really cool.

Wow, that kid has 4 PSPs in the backround.
He's freaking rich.

Maybe he's modding other people's PSPs too.

Actualy he has 5 PSPs. He moves one at 1:14 and then there are 3 black and 1 white stacked in the back. Dang he must have a lot of money to get all them PSPs.
