For anyone wondering about the cores! I found where he was dropping them! Its (project eris> opt > retroarch > config > retroarch > cores) I am not sure why mine was so much harder to find!
Thank you beautiful peron, I was struggling with this. P.s Come back to add the cores don't seem to work in that I can't load any of the Nintendo ones.
I agree bro... lots of vlogger wont even care they reached those views but he made a segment for a minute or two to thank the viewers... A ROUND OF APPLAUSE! 🤗
Thanks for making this vid, it often feels like older games are actively being knocked out of existence especially when remakes of them are on the market, there's a real importance to preserving the history of games and this little box makes them playable on modern TV's.
@@supremenematode1148 Silent Hill 2 is so expensive. I was able to buy Silent Hill 1 digital online on the PS3 online store. On PS4 on PS plus there is Resident Evil Directors cut, original, and the remake .
Idk if it's just me, but I've heard a few older gamers say the same and it's just that we don't have time anymore for modern gaming, whether it be having to download big files, the way the games are set up for future dlc to keep you invested or having to grind non stop just to compete with other players online, throw work , kids, friends and family into the mix you have very little time to actually enjoy video games. That's what I love about these old emulators, it feels like most games pre PS2 you can kinda just pick up where you last left off and not have to worry about controls or remembering what you were doing. Anytime I played God of War 2018 it took me like 30 minutes just to get the hang of the controls again, never mind actually getting into the game and having fun. By that time its time to sleep for work the next day
Picked up a PS Classic a few years ago on FB marketplace for cheap. It's been sitting in storage after playing it once because I thought it sucked. I used an amazon gift card I had to order most of the accessories you used in the video and I'm getting the console out of storage today to do this. Thank you for the video. Subscribed
This really was simple and worked like a charm! I only had a 16GB flash so I ordered both the one you linked and the controller adapter. Thanks so much for this video. That sub award was truly earned.
sounds easy but i dont have a computer anymore because i just use mobile devices and tablets... i wish this ps1 just came with all the games in the first place...
How do you get legally obtained PS1 ROMs 😂 I got the discs. I would love to be able to copy the discs onto pc into digital format then load it to ps classic
@@vasopel vaso although some people that don't want to get the PS1 with it's physical games because of the price but still want the authentic experience, can do this, I've hacked most of my systems and I think this would be a very good choice don't you think? Or what better option is there?
This is the first time I’ve actually been tempted to do something like this purely for the price, 5-min setup, and the fact that it looks like a freaking PS1 🙌🏽.
This would make a cool project I think, maybe even a good gift for someone? I can play all these games on my pc just fine but it's cool to have a decicated system with a bunch of ROMs that you can just whip out, bring to a friend's place etc.
Driller and especially Intelligent Cube actually are classics of the system. We had a demo disc with IQ on it that wore out in college. And it's held it's value well over the years.
@Gandhi discs don’t wear out. If you put them in violently they’ll get scratches. If you treat them with Love and care they wont get scratches, unless you’re using a PSP or a 360, the known scratch machines
I saw one time crash bandicoot rom online and I so much wanted to get it so I looked it up online for how to buy it and I did bought it for $25 and then when I bought it I said yay now I can download it so I went to the website and did downloaded it and now I can play it as a rom even though I will never touch the physical game, yes because I like to do things legally
I own this and it's literally the only thing I game on now. Not only is it so simple to mod but it gives you the best console experience and the keymapping and save states redeem so many older games that were a bit too hard or had terrible controls.
I got my PS Classic brand new at GameStop maybe six months after its initial release for $30 (yes, $30!) with the expectation that even if it ultimately wasn't hackable like this at least there would be a couple of games like FF7 that I still liked and had that I wouldn't have to worry about my old discs getting scratched or something anymore.
The fact that modding is required to make the PS Classic not suck, tells volumes that Sony simply didn't care, saw Nintendo do it with their NES and SNES Classic and Sony thought. "That's one hell of a cash cow to milk." Or they simply didn't care.
I honestly think Sony as a company doesn't care as LITTLE as people often make it seem, in the grand scheme. Not any less than Microsoft or Nintendo, which are also giant corporate entities that also want money and will try anything to earn it. However, in this particular case, they really did put NO effort in and did see this as a cash cow based on the then-current trend of releasing these mini consoles. They were clearly just trying to capitalize on the hype. Thankfully, the hardware is decent (the controller feels good enough) and it's somewhat made almost with the idea in mind that people would find a way to hack this thing. They didn't lock too much of its potential out so that's a positive.
reverse clickbait, i thought this video was going to only talk about the ps classic and i got a tutorial on how to jailbreak it. dammit jeff your content is peak. congrats for 225K
i stumbled upon this channel when having the thoughts of modding my v1 switch. I'm glad I did cause it gave me the courage to go through with it! consider me subbed to your channel. :D
Thank you for this video, it really helped me, but I have something funny to point out... 2:58 "it really just takes less that 5 minutes to get this entire thing set up" 4:11 Extracting, time remaining About 6 minutes and 30 seconds
It's a good little machine, and had ended up getting one when it was on sale at an EB Games (Gamestop in australia) for $44AUD new a few years ago. Was a good deal, and had gotten it to be able to put all the other games & whatnot onto, and has made for a good little emulation box. The USB controllers that come with it, nice having them as well.
It’s criminal Sony didn’t include Tomba 1 or 2 in the Classic originally. Tomba 2 was the first game I ever played on PS1 as a kid and convinced me to save up a year’s worth of chore money to buy the system and game. I was like 10 years old, covered in lawn trimmings, kitty litter, and dog hair from all those chores. Almost looked like I was cosplaying Tomba when I finally showed up to buy it.
You have to love all the people putting their time into modding, and development to make stuff like this happen. Imagine how dead things like the ps classic would be if noone made this type of emulation happen, we’d still be sitting around reading books and digging holes in the backyard
Nonsense, it's people wasting their time and proving they have nothing meaningful or purposeful to do in their miserable existence. Who needs this, when emulators are widely and easily available on all computers and most consoles anyway? And they all do a better job on top of it.
@@ShadowAngel18606 my point was the ps classic before had 10 games, worthless for the price it sold at. Jesus dude every party has a pooper that's why they invited you. Noone said anything about emulators, get off your high horse
Dude. Be proud of yourself and be steadfast in your life. People watch your channel and not others is because your likable and good at presenting information in a easy and understandable way. Goodluck for the future. 👍
I still have my dads original play station classic from the 90’s and I’ve always considered getting one of those all-in-one retro consoles so we can play the games from my childhood with him and he can get back into his favorite OG games. I had no idea this sort of thing even existed. Thank you so much for this video. You’ve inspired me to do this for my father’s console. Now we can relive the gaming of our young father/son days!!! Thank you!!!
Just a hunch, but it might be worth mentioning that Sony probably didn’t include the obvious top ps1 games because they weren’t legally allowed to. If they didn’t acquire the rights, or could only afford the rights to some of the less desirable games that would make a lot of sense to me. Still pretty cool that people figured out how to make it a proper mini console to play any ps1 game :)
Yup. Why no crash? I don’t know, probably because Activision is still selling the Crash remakes which haven’t gone on sale for lower than $20 like ever lol.
@@joelman1989 Better something expensive you can use than cheap junk that only steals space. This thing probably only costs 2 digits to make and is garbage so I doubt it would be such a strain on their struggling business.
@@Journey_to_who_knows don’t get me wrong I agree with you. What I was saying is Sony was already unwilling to do more than the absolute minimum. They couldn’t even be bothered to produce their own emulation. I do think the case and controllers are quite nice for what they are. But yeah, wasn’t worth MSRP. Luckily most of us got it for like $25 so at that price, plus the exceptional modding community, it’s become one of my favorite purchases ever. But, no thanks to Sony.
Well you earned another sub! I’ve passed on PS Classic a lot cause the mod scene early on wasn’t that great or user friendly but now I can dive into it! My SNES classic is modded with so many emulators using Hackchi and I was always hoping ps classics could have a similar solution. Thanks for the awesome video and congrats on 100K!
I picked up my PS1 Classic right after launch...for 20 bucks! Unreal, but its sat in its box since then because it sucked so bad. This video is amazing, and I'm so excited to do this. Thanks for the inspiration and walk through! I'm stoked to play PS1 again!!
It's 2024. I found this just because I wanted to mod my PS1 classic finally. I bought it at launch ..... But now I wanna get my mony's worth haha. But bro your thank you speech at the beginning, and the way youre so chill and reassuring with your guide, I'm gonna subscribe right away. I love the positivity
I always knew you would get this many subscribers. I was one of your first 1k subs and I'm so proud of you bro. Keep up these awesome videos because they always help me and many others.
The fact that even Sony themselves use an open-source emulator for this modernized PS1/PSX console really shows how far the advancement in software has come. If Sony can be kind to PCSX2 and RPCS3 devs, we can see seamless modern classic PS games still playing around in 2022 and beyond.
I love these modding videos so much! It's cool to see what all you can do with a console. I think it'd be cool if you made a video about what you can do with a modded 3ds
Minor nitpick: Sony didn't power limit the ports to 5V - that is the USB spec. Wattage is limited on the ports, but that's still within spec. It may work with a powered hub, as well.
Dude, thank you so much for this video. I pre-ordered this, but before I even got it in the mail, I saw how crappy this thing was and when I got it, I didn't even open the box. I now have a reason to open the box. I was also a huge fan of the psp, so I'm definitely going to emulate my psp games on this. I've always wanted a way to play my psp games on TV.
My brother got me one for Christmas when it came out and I've never really touched it because the selection of games it came with was pretty meh. I just texted him to let him know it's gonna go to good use now lol
"The games were kind of lame" Such a beautiful shot by the editor. xD And then it goes forward to show "Metal Gear Solid", "Final Fantasy VII", "Grand Theft Auto". Seriously, whoever edited this, it's a genius.
I have been contemplating buying a PS mini Classic for a while but wasn't convinced. Thanks to you and this video I just purchased one and can't wait to modified and take Advantage of all its potential. And lastly ... CONGRATULATIONS!!!! GREAT VIDEO 🥳🥳🥳.
I've been using my PS Classic as my emulation box with an 8bit-do and PS3 controller since picking it up new for £25/$30 after the prices plummeted following it's abysmal release and I love it. Great little bit of kit once it's modded and it's as you point out very easy to do so. I'd say It was worth the price for the cool PS1 shell alone but yeah I've certainly got far more than my moneys worth out of it. I will say however that here in the UK they've jumped way back up in price in the second hand market, likely because people now know that they're amazing for custom emulation. I'm definitely now getting an OTG adaptor and wifi dongle, hadn't thought of that before so thank you for the idea, that's awesome.
Repent and follow Jesus! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
I didn’t think I needed this until I saw this video. I’ve been debating on getting an Xbox one S to mod it, but with this being cheap might just go with this
Intelligent cube or Kurushi as I knew it, was actually one of my favourite games. I still play it every now and then. But no I agree with you, most people haven't heard of it and the game selection was underwhelming. It's great what you can do with it now though.
Congrats on your milestone! I had a good run with Race Grooves but now I want to get back to gaming =) I stopped back in the late 90's because I became obsessed with the diecast collecting hobby.
Hey Jeff, awesome video dude! My PS Classic is still brand new in the box since launch day (totally sold out in New Zealand in the 1st week). But now after watching this, I’m tempted to buy all the necessary accessories and finally break the seal 🥹👉📦
It was on heavy discount even in my country and vendor told me that they just wanna get rid of it. I bought it and after upgrade it turns out to be the best buy ever! Not only PSx, I loaded bunch of GB and NES games so you not need to have separate consoles for each of those anymore, just all in one place and all classic 80s and 90s titles are here. Sure maybe is not best for a brand new titles but I prefer to have console like this where I can plug and play things from my childhood.
Pretty sure I left another comment on here somewhere but this video not only got me to go out and get one myself to mod, but also got me interested in tinkering with electronics and video game systems, and your channel is fantastic for both of those. Definitely subbing
Congrats on your 100,000 subs and continued successes! Went ahead and purchased 2 PS minis for my brother and myself along with the necessary equipment from your links since your vid and instructions made everything CRYSTAL CLEAR. Thank You for that; you deserve all the KUDOS.
Best Buy had pallets full of these shortly after releasing, and being that they weren't selling all that well they eventually marked them down to $40, so I ended up buying 3 of them. Sold one about a year later but still have the other 2 sealed. Time to break one out. I had a feeling that eventually you'd be able to be mod them to perfection. Thanks for the video. 👍
It's strange looking at all the hate in videos from when it was released. I understand they were reviewing it as it was released. I only got into it recently and It's amazing with the mods you shown installed
Definitely make more videos for the classic consoles. I've had friends mod my other ones that I own, but would like to start doing this stuff myself. I just picked up my ps classic and plan to use your video once I get all the little bits you mentioned needing. Thanks for the video.
I enjoyed your humbled TH-cam award clip. Well done on your milestone. I'm new to this channel but can already tell I will enjoy all your content. As for the psmini, it really bugs me that it didn't ship with dualshocks. As for dos games, there's 30,000 members in my msdos group. Some amazing games. Shame you didn't go into more detail or test anything relevant.

I've been dipping my feet into the waters of emulation lately, (modding my Wii U, sideloading emulators on iOS, other fun things) and I'm just blown away with what people are able to accomplish. I've never owned a PS1 Classic since I never saw the value in it (or had any games I was interested in), but I do have an SNES Classic that has yet to be modded. I might leave it alone for the time being, there's not a lot that compels me to mod it yet as of now. But I'm still interested to see what it can do!
If you have a modded Wii U then you already have a better system to play any of the games you could on a mini SNES. Wii U modded is probably "one of the best" consoles to mod.
@@wils35 Oh yeah, absolutely. The moment that I managed to pair my wireless N64 controller that was intended for the Switch with my Wii U with no extra effort just blew my mind. And that's probably just scratching the surface, emulation is also really good on that thing.
@@Piximator It's a great console. Native Wii Support as well. Supports the wii motion control whilst outputting a better video signal than original Wii. I think I have every NES, MASTER SYSTEM, SNES, GENESIS ROM on that system. GameCube can be played on it. My favourite use for the console though is playing Wii games on it installed on hard drive. Super Paper Mario etc.
@@Piximator Cool that you can sync the wireless N64 controller to it. Is that the Nintendo Switch Online N64 controller? Constantly sold out on Nintendo site they are, been trying to get one.
A great video and although you hit that TH-cam milestone a while back do I'm a bit late. It's really noble and humble of you to thank everyone for the subscribing. You deserve it dude. All the best.
This was my first time watching one of your videos and that thank you in the beginning was so pure genuine and sincere! And for that alone my friend, you have gained a subscriber. I’m sure I won’t regret it!
It has a much slower processor vs the PSC.... 1.08 GHz vs 1.53 GHz on PSC. There are more emulation options for PSC than the other mini consoles. Check out KMFDManic's YT channel. He makes Xtreme core packs for the mini consoles.
It's so good once you mod it. I plugged it into an old monitor, added an arcade stick and now I have a homemade arcade machine with PS1 games inside. 🤙
This was incredibly useful and very articulated. If you how to's for the other mini systems, could you please specify which one would be the best in terms of hardware to runs said emulators, as I can imagine they are aren't using the same hardware. Either way, absolutely loved this video and all the links, I really appreciate this! Can finally share my favorite games with my kids on the big screen.
@jeff Will PS classic games be stream only? Because they wont stream for me I tried yesterday. Sucks because that's the main reason I wanted to updated was for the PS3 games but I have to be able to download them
I have had one of these forever and bought a bunch of the True Blue mini packs of games. Happy enough with that for PS1 games. But I might get a second one just to try the mods of other systems. Great video!
Awesome video enjoyed every minute of it! When PlayStation classic was released I saw a bunch of videos and reviews before buying and decided no to... Now seeing your video makes me rethink my decision!
@@Thornshooter I couldn't find it... I open Retroarch, I load PCSX-Rearmed core then I go in External game to find Gran Turismo then if I run the game, it just starts the game but no way to see the "Enhanced Resolution" setting in Retroarch menu... Please help me, I would like to play Gran Turismo with the upgraded resolution 😅
Quick question: Where do I drag and drop the Retroarch cores to on the flash drive? You say just "into your flash drive" at 9:28 but I don't see the same breadcrumb trail you have: config > retroarch > cores. Do I just drop them into the top SONY folder and RA will pick them up? Thanks! EDIT: Found the pathway for retroarch in case anyone else needs it: project_eris\opt etroarch\config etroarch\cores
Really cool man. I have Autobleem on my PlayStation classic and love it but will try to do Eris on my other one. So many more games than the Autobleem.
Great and very simple explanation. I did exactly as you said, all steps except that the ps classic doesnt recognize all the cores that I unziped from the link that you provided. I transferred the cores in the games folder, in the roms folde and also in the flash drive (not in any folder) but still it doesnt recognize any cores. When I go to retroarch, only the Sony (PCSX Rearmed) is recognizable. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance. UPDATE: For the cores to be recognized, they must be trasfered to the USB:/project_eris/opt/retroarch/config/retroarch/cores
@@vaguepepper4028 You didn't even bother to watch the video, right? Literally EVERY SINGLE mod described in this video requires a computer. EVERY SINGLE ONE. You're not very smart.
Good job. I wish I came across this video sooner. I did mod my ps classic, but didn't realize there was a win3.1 emu. Im gonna go turn it on now and check it out.
For anyone wondering about the cores! I found where he was dropping them! Its (project eris> opt > retroarch > config > retroarch > cores) I am not sure why mine was so much harder to find!
many thanks!
Thankyou

WHERES THE MEMORY CARD SLOT. HOW DO U SAVE GAMES?
Driller and especially Intelligent Cube actually are classics of the system. We had a demo disc with IQ on it that wore out in college. And it's held it's value well over the years.
IQ is a fantastic game and was definitely underrated. Picked up a PS classic when it was released pretty much just for that!

one of the most useful, practical and well told videos I've ever seen. Congratulations on your youtube trophy aswell, keep it rolling!
I own this and it's literally the only thing I game on now. Not only is it so simple to mod but it gives you the best console experience and the keymapping and save states redeem so many older games that were a bit too hard or had terrible controls.
WHERES THE MEMORY CARD SLOT. HOW DO U SAVE GAMES?
@@vishizzy It has a built in save function in the default software, but using the free Retroboot download and a USB stick makes it so much better.
I got my PS Classic brand new at GameStop maybe six months after its initial release for $30 (yes, $30!) with the expectation that even if it ultimately wasn't hackable like this at least there would be a couple of games like FF7 that I still liked and had that I wouldn't have to worry about my old discs getting scratched or something anymore.
got mine for 20USD at gamestop, but not really worth it since they're pal games :(
Got mine for $27 at Target.
The USB controllers are worth that easily.
I have bought 5 of them, all brand new, I have never paid more than $30 for one. Autobleem is awesome and basically fool-proof.
I paid 19.99 at GameStop
$15 on Amazon. It's just been sitting unopened all this time. Now I have a reason to use it.
The fact that modding is required to make the PS Classic not suck, tells volumes that Sony simply didn't care, saw Nintendo do it with their NES and SNES Classic and Sony thought. "That's one hell of a cash cow to milk."
Or they simply didn't care.
The first one you stuck
They love money. And they dont care at all. Its complicated. ;)
I honestly think Sony as a company doesn't care as LITTLE as people often make it seem, in the grand scheme. Not any less than Microsoft or Nintendo, which are also giant corporate entities that also want money and will try anything to earn it.
However, in this particular case, they really did put NO effort in and did see this as a cash cow based on the then-current trend of releasing these mini consoles. They were clearly just trying to capitalize on the hype.
Thankfully, the hardware is decent (the controller feels good enough) and it's somewhat made almost with the idea in mind that people would find a way to hack this thing. They didn't lock too much of its potential out so that's a positive.
@@PeteOliva Oh, I am very well aware, every company wants money, look at the 35th anniversary of Mario xD - But Sony with this is a new low.
You are right. When did Sony ever care?!
I wish the best for you my friend. You have a very kind, and humble soul

It's a good little machine, and had ended up getting one when it was on sale at an EB Games (Gamestop in australia) for $44AUD new a few years ago. Was a good deal, and had gotten it to be able to put all the other games & whatnot onto, and has made for a good little emulation box. The USB controllers that come with it, nice having them as well.

Dude. I miss the old days when we had EB Games in America... good times
It’s criminal Sony didn’t include Tomba 1 or 2 in the Classic originally. Tomba 2 was the first game I ever played on PS1 as a kid and convinced me to save up a year’s worth of chore money to buy the system and game. I was like 10 years old, covered in lawn trimmings, kitty litter, and dog hair from all those chores. Almost looked like I was cosplaying Tomba when I finally showed up to buy it.
It makes it way better because you played it with your hard earned money
And Punky Skunk
WHERES THE MEMORY CARD SLOT. HOW DO U SAVE GAMES?
You have to love all the people putting their time into modding, and development to make stuff like this happen. Imagine how dead things like the ps classic would be if noone made this type of emulation happen, we’d still be sitting around reading books and digging holes in the backyard
Nonsense, it's people wasting their time and proving they have nothing meaningful or purposeful to do in their miserable existence. Who needs this, when emulators are widely and easily available on all computers and most consoles anyway? And they all do a better job on top of it.
@@ShadowAngel18606 my point was the ps classic before had 10 games, worthless for the price it sold at. Jesus dude every party has a pooper that's why they invited you. Noone said anything about emulators, get off your high horse

I still have my dads original play station classic from the 90’s and I’ve always considered getting one of those all-in-one retro consoles so we can play the games from my childhood with him and he can get back into his favorite OG games. I had no idea this sort of thing even existed. Thank you so much for this video. You’ve inspired me to do this for my father’s console. Now we can relive the gaming of our young father/son days!!! Thank you!!!
Pretty sure you can put retroarch on your original PlayStation. There are many consoles you can put it on theses days.
Just a hunch, but it might be worth mentioning that Sony probably didn’t include the obvious top ps1 games because they weren’t legally allowed to. If they didn’t acquire the rights, or could only afford the rights to some of the less desirable games that would make a lot of sense to me.
Still pretty cool that people figured out how to make it a proper mini console to play any ps1 game :)
Yup. Why no crash? I don’t know, probably because Activision is still selling the Crash remakes which haven’t gone on sale for lower than $20 like ever lol.
Well they could have given it a disc drive so it wouldn’t be a paperweight
@@Journey_to_who_knows would have driven up the price significantly. They were already being cheap with this one so there was no way.
@@joelman1989 Better something expensive you can use than cheap junk that only steals space. This thing probably only costs 2 digits to make and is garbage so I doubt it would be such a strain on their struggling business.
@@Journey_to_who_knows don’t get me wrong I agree with you. What I was saying is Sony was already unwilling to do more than the absolute minimum. They couldn’t even be bothered to produce their own emulation. I do think the case and controllers are quite nice for what they are. But yeah, wasn’t worth MSRP. Luckily most of us got it for like $25 so at that price, plus the exceptional modding community, it’s become one of my favorite purchases ever. But, no thanks to Sony.
Well you earned another sub! I’ve passed on PS Classic a lot cause the mod scene early on wasn’t that great or user friendly but now I can dive into it! My SNES classic is modded with so many emulators using Hackchi and I was always hoping ps classics could have a similar solution. Thanks for the awesome video and congrats on 100K!
I picked up my PS1 Classic right after launch...for 20 bucks! Unreal, but its sat in its box since then because it sucked so bad. This video is amazing, and I'm so excited to do this. Thanks for the inspiration and walk through! I'm stoked to play PS1 again!!
Thanks for the super smooth tutorial.
I am grateful for the time you put into this. No wonder your channel is a success.
It's 2024. I found this just because I wanted to mod my PS1 classic finally. I bought it at launch ..... But now I wanna get my mony's worth haha.
But bro your thank you speech at the beginning, and the way youre so chill and reassuring with your guide, I'm gonna subscribe right away. I love the positivity

WHERES THE MEMORY CARD SLOT. HOW DO U SAVE GAMES?
Amazing dude, great video! I can’t wait to pick one of these up now, I passed on it before when it was disappointing… but now it’s a beast!
The fact that even Sony themselves use an open-source emulator for this modernized PS1/PSX console really shows how far the advancement in software has come. If Sony can be kind to PCSX2 and RPCS3 devs, we can see seamless modern classic PS games still playing around in 2022 and beyond.
I love these modding videos so much! It's cool to see what all you can do with a console. I think it'd be cool if you made a video about what you can do with a modded 3ds
Minor nitpick: Sony didn't power limit the ports to 5V - that is the USB spec. Wattage is limited on the ports, but that's still within spec. It may work with a powered hub, as well.
Congrats on 100k subscribers.
Finally got around to doing this to mine! And wow what have I been missing!! This is so great! Thank you!
Huge respect to you for the 100k mention. You'll get the success you deserve. You're a star and you will go far.
Congrats on 100k!! Been watching for quite some while. So happy to see you get your silver plaque :D
Dude, thank you so much for this video. I pre-ordered this, but before I even got it in the mail, I saw how crappy this thing was and when I got it, I didn't even open the box. I now have a reason to open the box. I was also a huge fan of the psp, so I'm definitely going to emulate my psp games on this. I've always wanted a way to play my psp games on TV.
My brother got me one for Christmas when it came out and I've never really touched it because the selection of games it came with was pretty meh. I just texted him to let him know it's gonna go to good use now lol
"The games were kind of lame" Such a beautiful shot by the editor. xD And then it goes forward to show "Metal Gear Solid", "Final Fantasy VII", "Grand Theft Auto".
Seriously, whoever edited this, it's a genius.
I have been contemplating buying a PS mini Classic for a while but wasn't convinced. Thanks to you and this video I just purchased one and can't wait to modified and take Advantage of all its potential. And lastly ... CONGRATULATIONS!!!! GREAT VIDEO 🥳🥳🥳.
I've been using my PS Classic as my emulation box with an 8bit-do and PS3 controller since picking it up new for £25/$30 after the prices plummeted following it's abysmal release and I love it. Great little bit of kit once it's modded and it's as you point out very easy to do so.
I'd say It was worth the price for the cool PS1 shell alone but yeah I've certainly got far more than my moneys worth out of it.
I will say however that here in the UK they've jumped way back up in price in the second hand market, likely because people now know that they're amazing for custom emulation.
I'm definitely now getting an OTG adaptor and wifi dongle, hadn't thought of that before so thank you for the idea, that's awesome.
Repent and follow Jesus! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet
Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state.
“We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.)
Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.)
Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894)
The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD.
Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed.
The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
Do u think Those Mods work On a Normal Ps1 too-?
I didn’t think I needed this until I saw this video. I’ve been debating on getting an Xbox one S to mod it, but with this being cheap might just go with this
hey man thank YOU your homebrew videos and just mainly console videos interest me a lot and im glad u make vids like that continue the good work
215k subs now, well done Jeff
This is awesome.
Works like a charm in no time. I am in nostalgia heaven. These psx soundtracks are the shit.
Intelligent cube or Kurushi as I knew it, was actually one of my favourite games. I still play it every now and then. But no I agree with you, most people haven't heard of it and the game selection was underwhelming. It's great what you can do with it now though.
Intelligent Qube is a classic. Casual gamers won't respect it because they likely hadn't even seen it before.

Very simple, concise and professional explanations!
Hey Jeff, awesome video dude! My PS Classic is still brand new in the box since launch day (totally sold out in New Zealand in the 1st week). But now after watching this, I’m tempted to buy all the necessary accessories and finally break the seal 🥹👉📦
I'm assuming nothing is region specific with this console or the mods? I'm also in NZ.
Oh damn, conplaqueulations!
I never had a PlayStation till the PS3 so I'm kinda tempted to get one of these now...
Thank you for this!! This tutorial has got me back into streaming with this system and all of the extra features I can do now👍
Awww that was wonderful to hear you thank the viewers. : )
It was on heavy discount even in my country and vendor told me that they just wanna get rid of it. I bought it and after upgrade it turns out to be the best buy ever! Not only PSx, I loaded bunch of GB and NES games so you not need to have separate consoles for each of those anymore, just all in one place and all classic 80s and 90s titles are here. Sure maybe is not best for a brand new titles but I prefer to have console like this where I can plug and play things from my childhood.
Pretty sure I left another comment on here somewhere but this video not only got me to go out and get one myself to mod, but also got me interested in tinkering with electronics and video game systems, and your channel is fantastic for both of those.
Definitely subbing
Yes! I’d love to watch another vid of other moddable consoles. I have a new snes mini just sitting in the box and would love to see its potential.
Search for Hackchi2 and enjoy. I'd post a link but TH-cam doesn't seem to like such things. I have a "fully loaded" Mini SNES.
Congrats on your 100,000 subs and continued successes! Went ahead and purchased 2 PS minis for my brother and myself along with the necessary equipment from your links since your vid and instructions made everything CRYSTAL CLEAR. Thank You for that; you deserve all the KUDOS.
i did it to and it was CRYSTAL CLEAR. He does deserve all the KUDOS.
Am I missing something?
Best Buy had pallets full of these shortly after releasing, and being that they weren't selling all that well they eventually marked them down to $40, so I ended up buying 3 of them. Sold one about a year later but still have the other 2 sealed. Time to break one out. I had a feeling that eventually you'd be able to be mod them to perfection. Thanks for the video. 👍
It's strange looking at all the hate in videos from when it was released. I understand they were reviewing it as it was released. I only got into it recently and It's amazing with the mods you shown installed
Definitely make more videos for the classic consoles. I've had friends mod my other ones that I own, but would like to start doing this stuff myself. I just picked up my ps classic and plan to use your video once I get all the little bits you mentioned needing. Thanks for the video.
I enjoyed your humbled TH-cam award clip. Well done on your milestone. I'm new to this channel but can already tell I will enjoy all your content. As for the psmini, it really bugs me that it didn't ship with dualshocks. As for dos games, there's 30,000 members in my msdos group. Some amazing games.

I've been dipping my feet into the waters of emulation lately, (modding my Wii U, sideloading emulators on iOS, other fun things) and I'm just blown away with what people are able to accomplish. I've never owned a PS1 Classic since I never saw the value in it (or had any games I was interested in), but I do have an SNES Classic that has yet to be modded. I might leave it alone for the time being, there's not a lot that compels me to mod it yet as of now. But I'm still interested to see what it can do!
put hachi on the snes classic and load it down with more snes/nes/megadrive/mame games/ thast what i did
If you have a modded Wii U then you already have a better system to play any of the games you could on a mini SNES.
Wii U modded is probably "one of the best" consoles to mod.
@@wils35 Oh yeah, absolutely. The moment that I managed to pair my wireless N64 controller that was intended for the Switch with my Wii U with no extra effort just blew my mind. And that's probably just scratching the surface, emulation is also really good on that thing.
@@Piximator It's a great console.
Native Wii Support as well. Supports the wii motion control whilst outputting a better video signal than original Wii.
I think I have every NES, MASTER SYSTEM, SNES, GENESIS ROM on that system. GameCube can be played on it.
My favourite use for the console though is playing Wii games on it installed on hard drive. Super Paper Mario etc.
@@Piximator Cool that you can sync the wireless N64 controller to it.

the sponsorship in this video was SMOOTHLY implemented nice going! Hope you continue even stronger
14:00 I think a Genesis classic video would be pretty great, especially since you can buy Genesis games on Steam which are essentially the roms.
It has a much slower processor vs the PSC.... 1.08 GHz vs 1.53 GHz on PSC. There are more emulation options for PSC than the other mini consoles. Check out KMFDManic's YT channel. He makes Xtreme core packs for the mini consoles.
It's so good once you mod it. I plugged it into an old monitor, added an arcade stick and now I have a homemade arcade machine with PS1 games inside. 🤙
This was incredibly useful and very articulated. If you how to's for the other mini systems, could you please specify which one would be the best in terms of hardware to runs said emulators, as I can imagine they are aren't using the same hardware. Either way, absolutely loved this video and all the links, I really appreciate this! Can finally share my favorite games with my kids on the big screen.

I'd love to see a video on the Genesis Mini if you have a chance to do stuff for that one since it's currently the only one I own so far
Great video. Definitely want to see something like this for the other retro consoles.

any luck finding this? Haven't been able to find it myself.
@@drewmetz3606 Yea, I did find it. You have to start the game in RetroArch.
@@Thornshooter thanks so much! Ill give it a try.
@@Thornshooter I couldn't find it...

Please help me, I would like to play Gran Turismo with the upgraded resolution 😅
Quick question: Where do I drag and drop the Retroarch cores to on the flash drive? You say just "into your flash drive" at 9:28 but I don't see the same breadcrumb trail you have: config > retroarch > cores. Do I just drop them into the top SONY folder and RA will pick them up? Thanks!
EDIT: Found the pathway for retroarch in case anyone else needs it: project_eris\opt
etroarch\config
etroarch\cores
Thanks for posting this! I was confused too. This is correct.
Really cool man. I have Autobleem on my PlayStation classic and love it but will try to do Eris on my other one. So many more games than the Autobleem.
This was very well done. Thank you for making my PS1 classic what it should have been!
Great and very simple explanation. I did exactly as you said, all steps except that the ps classic doesnt recognize all the cores that I unziped from the link that you provided. I transferred the cores in the games folder, in the roms folde and also in the flash drive (not in any folder) but still it doesnt recognize any cores. When I go to retroarch, only the Sony (PCSX Rearmed) is recognizable. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: For the cores to be recognized, they must be trasfered to the USB:/project_eris/opt/retroarch/config/retroarch/cores
You don't really need a PS classic for this. All of your old smartphones are more powerful and can do the same job.
Why not just skip all this stuff and use a computer?
