Emulators Running on PS4 FW 3.15 & 3.50 without any exploit!

Hello, all and welcome to some exciting news considering Homebrew and the PS4! As we all know its an exciting time for PS4 owners as new breakthroughs and hacks seeming to pop up like weekly!! But this time its not really hacking releated so we figured it might be nice to mention and clearing the air about it.

It turns out that @SorenAlke has brought us his own PoC using simple Javascript to play emulators on PS4 firmware’s 3.15 -3.50! Note: This is no hack but a quite popular way of playing webgames. However its still a cool thing having this working on an actual PS4 and being a nice project of course! Good work!

 

Here is what he had to say about it:

  • The PoC goes to @SorenAlke
  • Credits to the GitHub Source Page for download go to by Ben FirshMan
  • Ben FirshMan, jsnes, dev,+ORC ,+HCU rest in peace +FRAVIA,deank,linus torvalds,dennis ritchie,ken thompson,bjarne strosup,fail0verflow
  • Credits to first two public testers: @B7U3 C50SS for 3.50 and @DotExE01 for 3.15
  • As per personal message from @SorenAlke these are the people he’d like to be credited because of their contributions.
  • And finally, none of this would have been possible if it weren’t for Ben FirshMan & his code linked above. :wink:

  1. This is nice, not sure if it’s even a hack tho… Html5 emu servedfrom pc, it still isn’t sandbox or userland… I’m not bashing it, I’d play with it too.. I love retro games, emulation is my only reason for cfw/jb really.. My kids systems have backup loaders, but that is so I don’t have to buy multiple copies of a title they break… Had that happen before… Never again

  2. Will this require a memory stick?

  3. I expect Sony will patch this out just like they did to the Java BDR homebrew we had earlier in the PS4’s life span.
