Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

Not the PSone, but the original big one? Apparently, they're worth a pretty penny on eBay because the audio jack Sony put on it is amazing quality.

This kid's video game player really does have outstanding audio performance. I'm guessing you'd have to spend more than $6000 on a one-box CD player to equal let alone better it.

Re: Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

I have one in my closet, and it's the old style, but I really doubt having seperate RCA jacks for the Video and left and right channels of the audio makes that big a difference. Plus if you have PS2 optical SPDIF would be better, and PS3 has HDMI which is supposed to be the end all of entertainment at the moment.

But hey if someone is stupid enough to give me $6000 for my PS1 I'd be more than happy to take the offer.

I got one. I still use it to play PS1 games that freeze in the PS2, like Wild Arms.

I used to have the old PlayStation model but it began ****ing up on me. It was a first release model, too.

I still have my old Playstation it's all dirty though. My mom uses it to listen to CDs since she breaks every CD player she gets.

I still have mine, though the lid has a tendency to fly up at inopportune times.

Re: Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

haha funny you should ask. i have both the psone and the origonal. i bought the new one thinking my old one was gona die, only to find to my disapointment that they no longer sold the old version and gave me this crapy small light addition (which i now love to take traveling). my origonal doesnt get any use anymore and is in rather dusty condition, yet it still works nicely.

ohh that reminds me, while playing ff7 one day the screen suddendly screwed up and the background had wierd blue streeks that dont go away. its livable becuase any picture thats on the background hides this, but blank palete show this hideous blue streaks (such as in ff7 inside a house and you see the back on the outside, which is then blue streaks). come to think of it, i think thats why i wanted to buy a new one to begin with.

as for the audio thing - bs to the core. ive seen some prety bad crap people say to try to get more money for their garbage, and this is definatly such a case. my psone can launch nukes from china, please buy it for 6k!

Re: Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

I also have two of them. One still works, the other doesn't seem to want to read discs anymore.

Re: Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

One of my dad's friends at work was moving or something, and he gave a PS1 to us. Don't know what version it is, though. I was slightly amused that my dad brought home a system that was completly redundant, as we have a PS2.

But hey, a console is a console.

Re: Anyone still have an original Playstation 1?

I still have mine. I use it to show my RPGM1 games to other people. (One of my mem cards only will work for the PS1)

And for the gameshark.
