Rewrite PSP "Interesting" Copy Protection

[christhethird]

I can’t believe nobody has posted about this yet. So, I recently found out that Rewrite from Key actually has a PSP port, and I downloaded the ISO from somewhere (don’t ask). After putting the game on my PS Vita, I tried running Disc 1 first and it told me to install the data, simple enough.

Then I tried Disc 2, and everything seemed normal until I hit a roadblock which is: the game literally tells me to remove my Memory Stick and press Circle… which is obviously impossible on a Vita.

So my question is: is there any way to get past this and reach the title screen without physically removing a Memory Stick? I was thinking that TempAR would fix this problem, but I’m not sure if it would even help.

If anyone knows a solution, I’d really appreciate it.

Well, there is a native vita version, with likely added content but if PSP one is translated and Vita one not then it is a thing.

Pretty sure both of those version haven't got a patch yet (The english patch project for the PSP version has been discontinnued). But anyway, I just want to know if anyone manages to run this game or not because of this copy protection.

One likely would need to patch the roms to bypass it, by the very least have a cheat for bypassing it and Japan only games have a very small scene for such.
