This paper investigates save data corruption in PSP emulation, using Tag Team Racing running on PPSSPP as a representative case. We (1) characterize how crashes and improper emulator shutdowns lead to corrupted or lost save files, (2) analyze the structure and write patterns of PSP save data for Tag Team Racing, (3) identify failure modes in PPSSPP's save-write pipeline, and (4) propose practical mitigation and recovery techniques, including journaling, atomic writes, opportunistic backups, and a lightweight user-space recovery tool.
