We've gotten several e-mails from people who say that their shoulder buttons have just suddenly stopped working. Everything else is fine, but the shoulder buttons? DOA. So how are your buttons? And have you had any other issues recently?

Maybe you'll like this detailed guide to making light-up shoulder buttons instead. Everett, the modder, explains his reasoning quite eloquently: "Sony decided to make the PSP shoulder buttons transparent, leaving modders an excellent opportunity to make the device look way cooler with lighting."<br /><br />I have to admit, the idea does sound pretty enticing: seeing your PSP shoulder buttons light up every time you press them. Cheesy? Maybe. Cool. Hellz yeah. It won't be easy to get these lights into your system, but Everett does a fantastic job of explaining <a href="http://www.rpi.edu/~bradfe/PSP2/PSP2.html">how to rip open your PSP</a>. If you're a bit too afraid of exposing your system's innards, you can actually request Everett to <a href="http://www.rpi.edu/~bradfe/PSP2/signup.html">mod your system for you</a>. For money, of course.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.psp-hacks.com/2006/10/30/psp-push-activated-shoulder-button-lighting-mod/">PSP Hacks</a>]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2006/11/01/how-to-make-your-psp-shoulder-buttons-light-up/">How-to: Make your PSP shoulder buttons light up</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 01 Nov 2006 17:30:00 EST.
