  I’m most familiar with PS1 Homebrew, its almost all available under the “Net Yaroze” name.

  Without a Net Yaroze ps1, you’ll need a TonyHAX/freePSXboot memory card to boot the games. TonyHAX unlocks the region by resetting the disc drive into an unlocked state after Boot. As a consequence, this also allows homebrew titles and less than legitimate copies of titles to boot. Don’t use this for piracy, that would be iLleGaL.

  Archive.org has 3 Net yaroze game jams available, one of which has 83 titles but they usually render black and white. There is also Fromage, a ps1 demake for Minecraft (barely functional, but neat to show friends)

    This is cool and great!

    Wasted on me because I’ve only got later Playstations 🙃. That does give me some drive to go hunting on my own… hopefully find some treasure.

      If you patch your homebrew ROMs with the 80minute cd patch you can load them in pcsx2. In this case I believe you’ll have full color regardless of if the ROMs are made for PAL or NTSC
