Idolm@ster SP not playable on CFW PSP…yet!

If you are one of those people who have a CF PSP and got a “free” version of Idolm@sters SP, We have bad news for you: It is unplayable! Apparently, the producers of the game and Sony has included the 5.05 official firmware within the original game and basically, players needs that update in order to play the game.

The series of THE iDOLM@STER SP games (japanese), released today but leaked earlier, comes with a new and neat 5.05 update that is pretty much required for the game to run, or, at least, does not work on any existing CFW at the time. Spoofing the version through version.txt seemingly doesn’t work, either.

CFW users confirms “The IdolM@ster SP” does not boot on custom firmware 5.00 M33. It errors out with the following, “The game could not be started. (80020148).”

Furthermore, after doing a little research, it’s rumoured The Idolmaster SP will feature unlockable “PlayStation Home Rewards.” It’s likely 5.05 may accommodate that.

That`s the news! If you want this game right now, better buy it or wait for the all mighty CFW developers to do their magic.
