Small update on these..... fired up two of them. First one powers on happily and appears to run (only have music CDs to try) but a bit noisy.

 

Second one powered on but wont read anything. 

 

Will test the rest soon, and then start looking at swapping parts to get 2-3 fully working in good condition :)

I still have my original one of these but have lost the AV cable.

 

Need to get another one!

Into the 90s I go again....

 

I see you've gone for the period-appropriate photo resolution too.

I have the AV cable but can't connect it to my main TV! (I still have the old 32" though).

The issue with putting a playstation 1 onto a modern screen is that many games shift between interlaced and progressive and that makes anything modern blank out and take time to change to the new sync timings. Best deinterlacer I have found is the ODV which as far as I know is a clone of the first retrotink. No dropout when the menu appears in games.

richms: Drive emulator and forgot about discs IMO.

 

But that would mean I have to **GASP** download game ISO's :D

Good thing they are so small that a 512 gig card can hold everything worth playing and then some.
