Pictochat port, is it possible?

Post by ijeff »

Is it possible to create a Pictochat clone/port for the PSP? to connect PSP to PSP or PSP to DS?

I'm wondering if it is possible to utilize the wifi card within the psp.

It would only be possible if there is a way to craft custom wifi packets. The DS uses a proprietary protocol developed by Nintendo, it's not based on tcp or udp or any other known protocol. So the psp wouldnt know what to do with packets sent by the DS. The psp needs to be in a raw packet mode where it can sniff all traffic over the air, and respond to packets a DS would send. Its not pretty, and its not known if the psp's wifi chip can even support that mode.

No lame attempts at software requests either.

Good grief, keep that nonsense on the psp*hacks type of sites, don't sign up here to post that nonsense.
