The PlayStation Classic is a dedicated video game console by Sony that emulates games originally released on its 1994 PlayStation console. It was released in 2018, on the 24th anniversary of the release of the original console.
The PlayStation Classic is a “minified version” of The original PlayStation game console, and its appearance is almost identical.
The PlayStation Classic ships with two replica PlayStation controllers (the original model without the analog sticks). The console weighs about 170 grams (0.37 lb) and is about 149 mm × 33 mm × 105 mm (5.9 in × 1.3 in × 4.1 in) in size, approximately 80% smaller in volume than the original PlayStation and 45% smaller in width and length. It includes ports for both controllers, HDMI output, and power via USB.
The console uses a MediaTek MT8167a Quad A35 system on a chip with four central processing cores clocked at @ 1.5 GHz and a Power VR GE8300 graphics processing unit. It includes 16 GB of eMMC flash storage and 1 GB of DDR3 memory.
The Classic uses the ReARMed branch of the free and open source emulator PCSX to play its games
The PlayStation Classic comes preloaded with 20 games, some of which vary between regions. Nine games use the PAL release (used most European countries), which means they run at a slower framerate of 50 Hz as opposed to the NTSC standard of 60 Hz (used in North American, Japan, and additional Asian countries), and may respond slower than players from NTSC regions would expect.
The list of 20 games are as follows:
- Battle Arena Toshinden
- Cool Boarders 2
- Destruction Derby
- Final Fantasy VII
- Grand Theft Auto
- Intelligent Qube
- Jumping Flash
- Metal Gear Solid
- Mr Driller
- Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee
- Rayman
- Resident Evil Director’s Cut
- Revelations: Persona
- Ridge Racer Type 4
- Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo
- Syphon Filter
- Tekken 3
- Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six
- Twisted Metal
- Wild Arms
The console received negative reviews from critics, with criticism for its weak game library, use of the original controller, use of PAL versions for certain games, and high price tag, though the console’s design did attract praise.
The PlayStation Classic had sold 120,000 units during its first week in Japan. Its sales were noticeably low in the U.S. In just over two months after its release, the console was further discounted around the world and could be found for as little as $20.
