Sony introduces €100 PlayStation Classic

Sony has announced its own mini console, the PlayStation Classic. The device, in the form of the first PlayStation, comes with twenty games pre-installed. The price is 100 euros and it will be released on December 3.

The PlayStation Classic is 45 percent smaller than the original. Sony supplies the miniature PlayStation including two controllers that also have the design of the original controllers. In addition, there is an HDMI cable in the box for connection to a TV.

The buttons of the iconic console are also in the same place on the replica, where the ‘open’ button does not open the optical drive, but offers the possibility to start the menu to play one of the twenty games present. Among those games are Final Fantasy VII, Jumping Flash, R4 Ridge Racer Type 4, Tekken, and Wild Arms. A full list has not yet been released.

The PlayStation Classic will go on sale December 3rd, which is a reference to the device’s original release. The first PlayStation appeared on December 3, 1994. The suggested retail price is 100 euros.

With the PS Classic, Sony follows Nintendo, which released the SNES and NES Classic Mini in recent years.
