This works, but it is NOT a sturdy way to hold up a PSP. And if you mis-align your PSP too much to the right or left, the "feet" of the paper will fold in and rocket your PSP forward. To make this stronger, just take your waste paper and tape it onto the back of the stand to make it stronger.

It actually does work. You probably should get out a ruler and have a couple cards on hand when you try it though.

I don't think it's that inteesting but it works!
