Sony has announced that PSP firmware update 3.95 will be available shortly.

The update was detailed on SCEA’s PlayStation blog. It will allow players to customize how the buttons are assigned while playing PSone games on the PSP, simply go to ‘Controller Settings,’ then ‘Assign Buttons’ and select ‘Custom.’

In addition players will now be able to quit Remote Play and choose to turn the PS3 off or leave it on after quitting. This means that if players are performing a download they can quit Remote Play but the download will still continue on the PS3. When you press the Home button on the PSP there will be two options in the ‘Quit Remote Play’ screen, either ‘Quit and turn off the PS3 system’ or ‘Quit without turning off the PS3 system.’

More updates to follow once the firmware release date has been announced.
