    Preserving the history of the games industry

    The PlayStation Museum has garnered support from developers and publishers worldwide with the same goal of preserving the history of PlayStation game development.

    Support the PlayStation Museum with word of mouth
    The PlayStation Museum relies heavily on word of mouth within the game development community to support the efforts of historical game preservation. If you were a developer of Sony PlayStation games and would like to participate in documenting your experiences with Sony's machine or know someone who would be interested, please contact the PlayStation Museum today.
    The PlayStation Museum works and shares knowledge with the International Center for the History of Electronic Games’ eGameRevolution exhibit. The PlayStation Museum worked closely with the International Center for the History of Electronic Games and the Strong National Museum of Play to display an exhibit dedicated to PlayStation game development with the assistance of former developers from Sony Imagesoft. This exhibit encourages people to learn and understand the history of PlayStation game development.
    The future

The PlayStation Museum actively supports the efforts of the Strong National Museum of Play.

    “Things move so fast in the game industry that developers are always in danger of forgetting their roots. Thanks to the PlayStation Museum and other indie efforts to preserve our history, new generations of developers can learn from the experience of the ones who came before… and old gamers can enjoy reminiscing, too. Good work, guys.”
    Ernest Adams, founder of the International Game Developers’ Association

    Sony's greatest effort is the original PlayStation imo. My favorite Sony console.
    I will never forget chilling in Best Buy with my buddy and seeing the Playstation for the first time in it's display case showing off Battle Arena Toshinden.

    • @DEFkon001
      @DEFkon001 10 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      At the time I was a big Sega fanboy and scoffed at Battle Arena Toshinden compared to Virtua Fighter 2. I still think it's a better game, but I remember going to a birthday party, and my friend got a Playstation. After playing Wipeout, Loaded, Tekken, Toshinden and few other titles we were converts. It wasn't that Ridge Racer, Toshinden, etc were leap years better than Panzer Dragoon, Daytona, etc it's the fact that they were on par with them, and Sony was cranking out a few new games each week vs Sega which was lucky to put out 3 games a month.. if that.
      I still have my Saturn, (it might even still work.. ) but sadly my original PlayStation died from over use. It sucks to have a console die on you, but when a console dies from over use - it's a sign it was well used.

    I think that in the end it was great the betrayal and all that stuff happened for sony to stand alone and come up with this. I can't imagine how things would have looked today if Nintendo and Sony would have been merged to this console.

    I found interesting that PlayStation didn’t have any gaming studios of their own when they started but nowadays (2018) they own arguably the best ones out there, I think they’ve always been aware that you need to be fair and thankful to your game developers and they will keep producing exclusive hits.

      I personally think the Xbox as a brand will just end up as a client on PC. I mean the XboneX might be great hardware, but there's nothing to play on it, and the average gamer doesn't have a 4k TV. They might prove us all wrong and machine gun a load of awesome exclusives at us in the next two years, but with what's happened to Halo etc.... not really optimistic.

      PowerfulTimmu Nintendo did that first, with the nes, though that console is what saved gaming there is no denying that Nintendo went too far. They sued the game genie and lost, only allowed development to make 5 games per year and signed developers into jail cells by forcing them to only make games for them. Don't rage this is just my opinion...

    I have almost all of them next generation magazines on the video thumbnail stored. They were the highlight of my childhood reading lol. The quality of the thick smooth cover, it felt so premium. Every month just waiting to see what new stuff might be coming soon.
    Kids these days have no idea what we went through. The wait.... but It was cool just getting a slow drip of improvements.
    Got our minds blown multiple times through time.
    I always struggle to understand how my kid is happy playing games with crappy graphics. But I guess kids these days have never been starving for something new, they started to exist with so much choice, its now about being social and satisfying their reward system with a more natural pathway. What we went through, the slow drip really sorted the people who had a passion for tech, there were long stretches of boredom and frustration, but I think it made me the curious person I am.
    I even tried to force my kid to start with 8bit and work her way up through the generations... but growing up with the iPad, there was just no interest. I don't blame her. I played those games, and they sucked! I just sat there as a kid like, when is it going to get better.

      Well Sega wouldn't have died if Sony stayed with Nintendo. The reason PlayStation became a success was because they targeted an older demographic which is something Nintendo never had the balls to do. Most older gamers would've stuck with Sega or went the PC route but I doubt Nintendo would've had complete control of the market like they did in the 80s

    "This is the history of the Playstation.
    In the aftermath of World War 2, a bandicoot named Crash helped the people of Japan rebuild from the ashes.
    As Crash gains more and more ground in the stacked crate and small crevice world, the tomb raiding industry grows by leaps and bounds, and by the mid-1990's, the war for pictures of Lara Croft is red hot.
    The idea of working on another "Sonic's Ass Game" is nothing new to Crash. But now, things are different. Hand-in-hand, Crash, and the people of the Mushroom Kingdom, team up to bring Sonic to his knees, and Knuckles to his...knuckles. But Crash is about to face a bitter betrayal that will change the course of platforming history.
    The Mushroom King's insecurities lead to a dramatic climax in 1991, when he closes all pipes leading to Naughty Dogistan. Now, more driven than ever, Crash sets out to make a platformer unlike any other. At first, Crash plans to release one that has pipes and power blocks AND springs, checkpoints, and loops. In 1992, two-hundred units of this "Segtendo"(or as it was originally named, "The Nintega Chronicles") are manufactured, but are quickly scrapped into twisted metal.
    Crash decides to wait for the next wave of electoons to enter the battle arena toshinden, and intends to capitalize on metal gear technology. Crash knows that the road ahead won't be easy, but he has an ace up sleeve that will dazzle the entire platforming industry. Detailed and smoothly-rendered area maps of Lara Croft's naked breasts.
    After watching the failure of platformers like Astal very closely, Crash realizes that titmap power alone isn't enough to come out on top in the world of stacked crates and small crevices. Crash does everything he can to round up third-party developers to...well, develop the nude pics, and is able to sign 250 in Japan alone. He also spends 48 million Wumpa Fruit to purchase the Lemmings, thus ending their colony wars, and changes their name to Team Buddies. The next step is ensuring a successful launch in the US and Europe.
    To pull this off, Crash spares no expense. With this new mindset, Crash sets out to conquer the United States. After a nationwide tecmo super bowl marketing blitz unlike any other, Crash launches what he calls the "Tenchu Twisted Metal Gear Time Crisis Tobal Titmap Tekken Tomb" in the United States on September 9th, 1995.
    Shortened to "Playstation", it picks up more and more sales, thanks to powerful hardware, and a collection of exclusive dames with other tits. Crash's Playstation proves to be a juggernaut that plows through all common bitch shit. The success of the Playstation goes beyond even Crash's sexpectations. Today Crash remains number one, and is still going strong. Like his orange penis in the mouths of virtua hookers."
