5. Emulation Workaround (Not Recommended for Practical Play)

  • You can emulate Android on a PSP? No – PSP hardware (MIPS CPU, 32MB RAM) is far too weak to run Android or Subway Surfers natively.
  • You could play the Java (J2ME) version of Subway Surfers (for old flip phones) via a Java emulator on PSP? Technically possible with PSPKVM, but performance is extremely poor (low FPS, no touch emulation well).

PSP Minis and Similar Titles: The PSP had a category called "Minis" which featured simple, addictive games. Titles like Monster Probably Stole My Princess or Jetpack Joyride (which did have a PSP port) are often confused with Subway Surfers because they share a similar casual, high-score-chasing gameplay loop.

Abstract

Subway Surfers (Kiloo & SYBO, 2012) is a touch-based endless runner that achieved massive success on iOS and Android. This paper examines the hypothetical but technically plausible port of Subway Surfers to the Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP), a handheld system discontinued in 2014 but with a substantial installed base. We analyze input mapping, graphical downscaling, performance optimization for the PSP’s 333 MHz CPU, and memory constraints (32 MB RAM). The paper concludes that while a direct port is impossible, a demake retaining core gameplay loops is feasible using the PSP’s analog nub, face buttons, and custom firmware optimization. You can emulate Android on a PSP

Controls: Instead of swiping, players use the D-Pad or Analog Stick for movement (left/right/jump/roll) and the X button for activating hoverboards. Visuals: Graphics are typically downscaled to fit the PSP's
