Description
The PlayStation 1 Classic, aka the PSI Classic, looks almost exactly like the classic, original Sony PlayStation of the mid-1990s - except that at 148mm wide compared to 193mm, it's much smaller.
Having been released a quarter of a century after the original PlayStation, it's also got much better spec: whereas the original had a single chip running at 33.33MHz, the Classic's ARM quad-core chipset runs at 1.5 Ghz, and while the original had a total of 3MB memory the Classic has 1GB - plus 16GB flash memory, which the original didn't have at all. Efficiency has come on a bit since the 90s too, so whereas the original PlayStation required a large mains adapter the Classic only needs a USB connection. It also has an HDMI port rather than the old style coaxial cable type, allowing easy connection to modern TVs.
Unlike the PS discs (or CD-Roms if you were naughty and had a hacked machine able to play them) of the 1990s, the Classic has 20 preinstalled games - namely...
- Battle Area Toshinden
- Cool Boarders 2
- Destruction Derby
- Final Fantasy VII
- Grand Theft Auto*
- Intelligent Qube
- Jumping Flash
- Metal Gear Solid*
- Mr Driller
- Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
- R4: Ridge Racer Type 4
- Rayman
- Resident Evil: Director's Cut*
- Revelations: Persona
- Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo
- Syphon Filter
- Tekken 3
- Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six
- Twisted Metal
- Wild Arms
...and it's worth mentioning that the console runs on PCSX-Reloaded, an open-source emulator, which means that if you have the skillz and like tinkering with stuff it can be fairly easily modded to play any PlayStation 1 game available on CD-Rom or official Playstation 1 disc š
Please note that this one is sold exactly as it appears in our photos - the console in full working order only, without any original packaging, manuals, cables (you need an HDMI and a USB-A to Micro USB-A, both of which you probably already have) and without controllers - remember that you'll need to buy the replica versions designed for this console with USB connectors rather than the original type.

About Arthur Rank Hospice Charity
Arthur Rank Hospice Charity supports people in Cambridgeshire living with an advanced serious illness or other life-limiting condition and those who need end-of-life care. Its āOutstandingā services are provided free of charge to patients and their families. The aim is to provide the highest quality care, helping them to make every moment count.
Around 4,000 patients are cared for each year at the Hospice in Cambridge, the Alan Hudson Day Treatment Centre in Wisbech and in patientsā own homes via the Arthur Rank Community Team. This care supports people to improve their quality of life and fulfil their end of their life choices.
Alongside the care provided by the Inpatient Unit, Living Well services and Hospice at Home teams, patients can access: patient and family support; lymphoedema care; complementary therapy; medical and pain outpatient clinics; and advice from the clinical nurse specialists within the Specialist Palliative Care Home Team. Programmes are practical, holistic and tailored to the individual patient, family member or carer and may also include rehabilitative support, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and psychological support.
It will cost Ā£10.5 million in 2021/2022 to run services, which are provided free of charge to patients and their loved ones. Contracted services from the NHS are budgeted at Ā£6.98 million, meaning that Ā£3.52 million needs to be raised through donations, fundraising activities and trading. The Charity is extremely grateful to the local community for the continual dedication, commitment and generosity they show in supporting towards meeting this target.
