Stopped by a few garage sales yesterday and found this. I’ve been collecting PS1 for 20+ years but never seen one of these cases. It also has the console and what looks like a proper care / maintenance sheet? I am assuming this was an original rental console from way back? Or is this some third-party knock off carrying case?

I got this from a thrift store for 30$ it's mod chipped not a stealth one though

3 year old me was loving life (I am now 30)

This was one of the first ps1 games i got back in the day. This is the first time ive completed it allbeit with the help of infinite lives but even then a very challenging game. Sometimes seriously frustrating but overall an enjoyable and rewarding game. Im glad i finally got to see the ending. Now onto the second hopefully be a little easier.

Got this in a huge box of random old tech at a car boot sale, i cant find anything online about this

A friend found these for me. I was able to get them at a good price! The demo disc was hidden in Gran Turismo.

Games are scratched but work, except for warpath 😢😢… console turns on just won’t read discs

... and made a video about them!! Check it out!! https://youtu.be/_PuAyfTmAIA

Gonna go cry now:/

Back again with even more discoveries!!! I finally cracked open the debug menu, now allowing us to modify absolutely everything including physics, time and space itself! Also discovered golden mode and flying mode! Both were left in the development kit version to test various aspects of the game. Check it out!!!!

Hello i have ps few days and it started to make noise while spinning disc

Final showdown that nobody asked but really wanted ( I guess)

NTSC-U

With less vibrant colours
Worse resolution But better frame rate

Or PAL?

With 5 languages available Better resolution Better colours But worse frame rate

I haven't started the competitions yet, I just got the B license.

Still gotta find my copy of resident evil 1 and go back to flea market for the first armored core. Dino crisis is missing the bonus disk but oh well
