PlayStation just hit the nostalgia button — big time.
Sony is launching a miniature version of the original 1994
PlayStation console, called PlayStation Classic.
The Classic will be about 45% smaller than the original
PlayStation, and come with 20 games pre-loaded.
Confirmed titles include “Final Fantasy VII,” “Jumping Flash,”
“Ridge Racer Type 4,” “Tekken 3,” and “Wild Arms.” PlayStation
was unable to confirm any more when contacted by Business
Insider.
Gamers on Twitter are already speculating on the rest of the
lineup.
Some fans also noted that the controllers included in the
PlayStation Classic are also original, i.e. not Dualshock
controllers with analogue sticks.
The announcement of PlayStation’s nostalgia-stoking launch comes
a year after Nintendo
released a miniature version of its Super Nintendo Entertainment
System (SNES), called the “Classic Edition.”
The dinky PlayStation will be available for purchase for $99.99,
or £89.99 in the UK, on 3 December.
