What you need
• A PSP
• Scotch Tape
• A quarter

Directions
• The first step is putting tape on one side of the quarter by rolling it to make a loop ( i guess you could use double stick tape).
• The last step is placing the quarter over the buttons that you want to be the extra analog stick.
• This should help with games like Syphon Filter, Coded Arms, or other FPSs.

um... tape a quarter to some buttons! now you have an extra analog stick!! right...

i hate to break it to you TJ10, but a D-Pad cover (homemade or not) will not make anything analog. but show us some pictures so we can so how stupid your PSP looks with a quarter taped to it lol

*rummages through pocket* damn i only got 2 dimes and a penny. Will those work? Maybe because of the small design of a dime, your innovative coin/analog stick will work better! LOL

I think that this could be improved by putting a soft layer between the quarter and the PSP. That way, you can save the buttons, and it mihgt be a little more gentle on your thumb.

Wow, it's good to see people bashing a simple guide to getting a better feel on your PSP for certain games.
At least TJ10 had the guts to offer up an easy fix that doesn't cost much and can be removed easily and quickly.
Thanx for sharing. Way to keep the community going strong, guys!

hey you guys be careful with your analog sitck i put the bigger better one on mine and apparently it puts more leverage on the mechanism then it is designed to handle thus breaking it off completly and i had to buy a new psp..............be careful with those things its not that much better to risk breaking your psp.
