A new trend emerged halfway through 2016, the return of classic consoles in small sizes and with more modern elements such as HDMI collectivity for example. Since the birth of the Nintendo Classic Mini, we’ve seen the revival of consoles like the Super Nintendo, Sega Mega Drive Mini, and Atari VCS. It was rumored in May this year that Sony could follow this trend, and finally, we have a confirmation of the news: The PlayStation Classic will be launched this year.
In particular, the PlayStation Classic is a miniature version of the legendary original PlayStation and will be launched on 3rd December 2018. As you can see from the illustration in this article, PlayStation Classic will be 45% smaller than the original model and include 20 classic games such as Final Fantasy VII, Tekken 3, Ridge Racer Type 4 and other games that will be announced later.
The PlayStation Classic features HDMI collectivity for use on current televisions and monitors (HDMI cable also included). Most importantly, two replicas of the original controller are included so you can enjoy your favorite games with anyone.
Like other miniature consoles, you won’t be able to use all the parts. For example, you can’ t open the cover to change the game but you need to use the “Open” button to virtually change the title. In addition, there will be a virtual memory card on which we can store the games that we want to play.
Undoubtedly, this is an introduction that will attract the attention of enthusiasts, especially those who have spent days and nights playing the original model. In terms of price, PlayStation Classic will be available for $99.99, a price that could make it a bestseller. Up next, we’ll leave the video presentation to you:
