Topic: PlayStation Classic

@FullbringIchigo Even if Symphony of the Night is on it I have enough copies already that I don't need it. I have my original PS One Copy and I have it on Xbox 360 which is BC on Xbox One. Only a handful of games of announced will make me buy one but I doubt they will be on there because they are obscure titles

@Tasuki my copy of SoTN doesn't work anymore so for me the game being on the Classic would me a selling point but i can see why for others it wouldn't be though

@FullbringIchigo doubtful. .. Most out there are likely long dead.

@Tasuki Twisted Metal is a good shout!

@KALofKRYPTON mine still work, i am still playing my original FFVII save on my PS1, it's 100% done and i've been playing so long the in game clock has stopped

The eBay scalpers are rubbing their hands already...

@JohnnyShoulder hence why i got my pre-order in **** those greedy ******** (pardon my language)

@FullbringIchigo I have a PS2 that I play my PS1 games on as well as a PS3.

@Tasuki yeah i could play it on my PS1, PS2 or PS3 but the disc is broke and besides my PS1 looks terrible on a HD TV

@FullbringIchigo Yeah definitely agree there. Older consoles look bad on a HD TV especially the early 3D games like N64 and PS. One reason that when I play my older games I use HD clone consoles like the Retro AVS nowadays.

@Tasuki perhaps that's one of the reason these kind of Classic consoles are so popular

@FullbringIchigo Well that was the main reason I bought the NES and SNES Mini

@Tasuki me too actually

@FullbringIchigo @Tasuki In my collecting days I upgraded all of my cables where I could.

Even the Mega Drive through a good RGB cable looks pretty great on a regular LCD TV.

PS2 Component really helps there too.

Got this on pre-order but whether I keep it depends on what the other 15 games are.

Namco and Squaresoft seem to be onboard so its possible to speculate on other games in their catalogue which might make it across.

Also they are including 2 controllers so I assume that cant just be for Tekken 3 - there must be some more 2 player games?

I must admit I'm struggling to think of games on PS1 I would honestly play again. Id be more interested in the niche games I never played like Einhander but realistically Im expecting mostly Sony first party stuff like Parappa the Rapper, Gran Turismo and Medievil.

@Milky_Bandit Point Blank or Bomberman are multiplayer games I could see coming. Pot Poy, Bushido, Micro Machines; all possible too, I think.

Another one from SquareSoft would be great, Vagrant Story or Chrono Cross. And from Namco Klonoa and Galaga would be good picks.

@Kidfried I don't really play that many retro games, think Wonderboy The Dragons Trap was the last and that was a remaster.

But man if Vagrant Story was on this, I would buy it just to play that game.

@Kidfried @JohnnyShoulder Point Blank with a controller is awful.
Micro Machines V3 would be good though.

I'd guess we can expect WipEout 2097, Wpi3Out is a better game, but I don't think it did anywhere near the same numbers. Definitely not as iconic.
I'd like to see a good shmup. R-Type Delta, Einhander, Ray Crisis, G-Darius - even R-Types actually.

@KALofKRYPTON All good calls indeed.

@Kidfried Bushido Blade could be a good shout actually.

Have they revealed all the games? If Crash 2 is on here I'm in.
