STEP FOUR

http://phantasystar.sega.jp/psp2/trial/step03/ The Final Step, click on the Orange button to download the Zip file of the Japanese Demo! Congraturations! You now have the Japanese Phantasy Star Portable 2 Demo!

You must first decompress the zip file before placing it in your PSP system directory. The instructions may be different based on which PSP Operating System you have. Extract the file on the memory stick root. The folders all automatically fit into place after extraction. In some cases you may have to manually create the folders yourself. In this case, please UPPERCASE all folder titles for safe delivery.

Follow the path as shown in the image above. The files follows this path: Memory Stick > PSP > GAME > NPJH90062 > EBOOT.PBP and DOCUMENT.DAT

• The site recommends creating a PSP folder if one does not exist.
• I recommend extracting the zip file to your computer first…
• Then move the “NPJH90062″ folder inside the Memory Stick “GAME” folder.
