I still have my psx pal SCPH-1002c. At some point in its early years it really struggled to read discs and the optic bloc was changed entirely.

Nowadays, it has problems again but not exactly the same. At first it seemed the console could read discs randomly, but I've discovered something peculiar. Once the console has been switched on for 20~25mn, it can read discs, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a couple of resets. And once it read the disc, it just works perfectly. No lag in FMV, or abnormally long loading times.

My first OEM PS1 game, got it today. Finally putting my PS1 to good use.

It's insane how far the GTA franchise has come! Now it's one of the biggest videogame franchises ever!

It's important to clarify that I'm relatively novice to retro gaming and especially new to CRT TVs. I was doing some browsing and I saw two people selling CRT TVs around my area that peaked my interest. Images of the TVs will be show in the images above.

The first offer is a 10 inch Sylvania CRT TV. Although the poster did not post an image of the back of the TV, it does offer audio and video output as seen on the front. It may be a Sylvania SRT2213 model from 2002 based on some research that I've done. Seems like a decently sized option. The seller is asking for $50.

The other offer is a 13 inch RCA TV that was manufactured February 1999. I can see on the back that it's model E13332BC. The seller says it's in good shape, but doesn't have inputs. Would not having inputs be an issue? The seller is asking $100 for it.

I would love to know what you guys think about these offers. I'm honestly impressed to even find such CRT TVs on marketplace since I live in a weird part of my city, but I don't want to give in to a crappy deal. Are these good CRT TVs for their price?

Saw an image of this cool ps1 bass guitar

I did a quick and dirty static recompilation for the PS1 version of Colin McRae rally with some improvements. A childhood classic for me.
It now has widescreen, runs at 60fps with anti-aliasing, at native screen resolution. The drawdistance was also increased. It's also moddable, I carried some GT2 cars over to play myself.

I have started on a project to make a detailed wiki for the Codemasters PSX game Micro Machines v3!

If you are familiar with the game or are interested in it, you should check it out!

I’ve recently taken an interest in retro gaming. I tried firing up my old PS1, but when I press the power button, the green light just flickers on and off—there’s likely a short circuit. Upon opening the console, I noticed that the wire I’ve marked in red is disconnected, but I can’t figure out where it’s supposed to be soldered. I’ve looked for reference material, but I haven’t found a soldering diagram that matches my unit; the connection points for these wires seem to be different from what I’m seeing in other examples. Could you help me out?

Hey everyone I'm a game dev hobbyist working on 3D models of various 90s properties, the ultimate goal is a platform fighter comprised solely from media of that era. Until then, I'd like to share some fan art I've been working on to help complete one of my models.

Which one are your favorites?

Which do you prefer? I just got the one without joysticks. Never used one before today at all. always had joystick controllers as my PS1 was given to me for Christmas 1998.

Wanted to get the joystickless controller for the 8bitdo mod kit to make it wireless. I never really used the joysticks that much anyways. But I also wanted to add this controller to my collection just to have one.

Does anyone actually prefer the Original? I actually kinda like that they are lighter. But of course having the joysticks is a great option if you play a game that allows them.

I have an oem ps1 controller and I just got this ps1 and the menu won’t work haven’t tested a game and I have to memory card in

The Bloody Roar games are still some of my favorite fighting games and I spent the entire weekend getting the endings and story modes done with all the characters
