20 gameslist.JPG

Last month Sony announced the re-release of its first gaming console in mini format as the PlayStation Classic. While only a few preloaded titles were announced at the time, more would be revealed at a later date. And today's the day! We now have the full list of the 20 games that you can play once you boot up the PlayStation Classic this December!


Here's the full rundown:
  1. Battle Arena Toshinden
  2. Cool Boarders 2
  3. Destruction Derby
  4. Final Fantasy VII
  5. Grand Theft Auto
  6. Intelligent Cube
  7. Jumping Flash!
  8. Metal Gear Solid
  9. Mr. Driller
  10. Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
  11. Rayman
  12. Resident Evil Director's Cut
  13. Revelations: Persona
  14. R4 Ridge Racer Type 4
  15. Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo
  16. Syphon Filter
  17. Tekken 3
  18. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six
  19. Twisted Metal
  20. Wild Arms
The PlayStation Classic follows suit with the recent wave of retro console re-releases, boasting the same form factor but it is actually 45% smaller than 1994’s PlayStation.

Out of the nostalgic box, the device comes complete with two wired controllers, plus a virtual memory card to save your adventures as you switch between titles. Since this console releases in the 21st century, it also comes with an HDMI cable to connect to your TV. However, a compatible USB AC adaptor is required to use this console but is not included. The official PlayStation page advises to use an AC adaptor that supports 5 V, 1.0 A USB (Type A) output.

Pre-orders for the PlayStation Classic are now open at an MSRP of $99.99 to reserve yours for its release on December 3rd.

Crazy Final Fantasy IX isn't included, was a great showcase of what the PS1's hardware could accomplish and is arguably better than VII...

i still dont know a console that you can play some of the hardest to emulate n64 games perfectly,

Precisely why I have an N64 (and a Saturn and an Xbox). Always hoping the emulation keeps improving on those. I realize it's really hard work. :/

Decided to make a list on a psvita 20th anniversary theme. Even at 50 games I had to leave out so many great options.

I meant they are both equally as deserving, but only one could go on the list, and x4 just happened to be the one I went with. Its more of a "what we loved at the time" list, so I tried to pick the best/most popular/across many genres. If it was the games I want, then it would be completely different.

Wow, that list is pretty underwhelming. Not even Silent Hill 1, which is still exclusive to the PS1.

Yes, I know there are other ways to play it, and have.

There's hope for a Xenosaga port.

But where are
alundra
grandia
destrega
deception 3: dark delussion
clock tower 2
silent hill
breath of fire
soul blade
tony hawk
wild arms
etc?

The merit of the PS1 is not any specific game (well, except MGS, that one can't be missing), but a big catalog of consistent good quality games.
Sure that quality, abundance, can't be replicated with less than 100 games.

This is not meant for you. It's meant for the complete casual who has no clue emulators even exist.

It will sell well.
These mini consoles usually are. I have both an NES Classic and an SNES Classic. And as soon as I heard them being announced I knew they'd sell well because of their lineup.

I am not sure about the PS Classic, tbh - because of the lineup. As mentioned, I think one reason is that the PS One did not have a small set of really outstanding games like the NES or SNES but a vast catalogue of great games. You simply can not do it justice with only 20 titles.

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.

    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

    How are you doing?

    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.

    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
