Ike★ 2,922 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 They always fail when they try to copy Nintendo’s successful products with an inferior copycat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-GD-X★ 7,814 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 it was a terrible idea. while i love sony's games, they make some of the dumbest decisions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,299 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 No word on the hacking front? This is like a 95% chance of me just returning it back to the store for a refund. I'm getting it in the mail today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Should be fairly easy then to just add the ISOs to the console depending on the flash storage in the console itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the open source emulator; and yet some of the games run as PAL and others are NTSC. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-playstation-classic-emulation-first-look Quote What's baffling is the inclusion of PAL versions at all, particularly when the vast majority of the PAL titles in this list were actually developed in Japan or the United States. So what's the problem here? Well, these days all console systems run at 60Hz - a format accepted by HDTVs the world over. Back in the day, PAL territories used TVs that ran at 50Hz instead, and the easiest way to 'port' games over to PAL systems was to simply run them more slowly. Most PAL games run at 83.3 per cent of the full-speed of the NTSC versions in terms of frame-rate, and most of the time in terms of actual gameplay speed too. Side-by-side with the NTSC equivalents, PAL versions are generally slow and plodding and don't properly represent a US or Japanese developer's original vision. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynux3 2,165 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Interested to see how the homebrewing scene fucks with this thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,922 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I’m curious as to the amount of flash storage it has. It’s a waste though since you can get a cheap PSP and have a portable PS1. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,299 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Well, the reason why the NES and SNES classic are easy to hack is because you just hook it up to the USB connector that it uses for power. I just want to be sure that the PSone classic has that same ability, and to see if the mainboard has sufficient processing power to handle 60Hz versions of the most demanding PS1 games. Also, it'd be cool is maybe a PS3 dualshock with a USB cord could potentially work with PS1 games that require analog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah when I first saw that shit, I thought it was a photoshop of wii/switch controllers to call them low grade or something, not an actual 'item' that was released.

Mr. House 3,371 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 PS1 is still the greatest console of all time. They should consider releasing a revision for the mini. With a better games line-up, Dualshock controllers and rectify on all the complains this thing is getting. No pal versions and some graphics options. They fucked up hard, I don't even want it anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynux3 2,165 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Apparently you can plug in your keyboard and access the emulator settings by pressing escape. You can modify the PAL setting to NTSC, set framerate, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,299 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Well, hopefully somebody can make a bootloader to upload your own ROMs. And the ability to change games to NTSC, it that an emulator setting? Isn't the ROM itself based on the PAL version? Hopefully they change the setting to NTSC and test those games to see if performance turns out okay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
