    I was adopted at 5 years old, and to welcome me into the family, my new dad bought me a PS1 and played countless hours of Gran Tourismo and Spyro with me for years to come. I can't tell you how impactful those years were. He has been such a great dad beyond that, too. Absolutely wild that a game console was so helpful to an awful situation, but it really brought us together quickly when we needed it!

    16:57, I hate to do this to you, but you were dead wrong on this one. The 10/24/06 release was actually a re-release into a Capcom Books version of the same game that came out back in 2000! The last original game that was released in Japan, was Black Matrix 00 which was released on May 13, 2004. There was just 1 other game that was released that year and that was Dynamite Soccer 2004 Final which was released on April 15, 2004. All other releases after 5-13-04 were re-releases like the game you mentioned, the Final Fantasy Collection, and Metal Gear Solid 1, and a few others. The source of this comes from an extremely well known PS1 Collector who has a YT Channel known as the Sony PlayStation 1 Sanctuary & Museum who actually ran a museum near Philadelphia, PA in 2020 and beforehand, in Tokyo, Japan back in 2013. All those dates are verifiable so sadly your info is somewhat wrong.

    2:23 - Wild Arms was not cross-platform. The PS2 game was a REMAKE, hence the sub-title, "Alter Code F" ("F" standing for Filgaia, the world the game takes place on). Hell, the PS version came out in 1996 (Japan) & 1997 (US), while the PS2 game was released in 2003 (Japan) & 2005 (US).

    Some Facts about Savegame Storage. Even before the NeoGeo some Consoles used external saving, but NeoGeo had the first "Card" .
    Nintendos Famicom and Super Famicom hat Storage System made by Ascii (also for Game Boy and Game Boy Advance) and NEC hat their TenNoKoe Line of Savesystems.
    Sony Memory Card also incorporates 16 Blocks, not 15, but one Block is not visible to the User and contains the Table of Contents of the Card. That also means the User can only 120kb of Storage (1Block=8KB). That's also the reason for a neat Trick on the PSone. If you delete a File from your Memorycard by accident in the Console's Memorycard Manager, don't leave the Screen but power off your System and the Saves are....well, saved, because the TOC is rewritten when you leave the Memorycard Manager.

    2:25 What? Wild Arms was not multiplatform. It (much) later got a remake on PS2 called Wild Arms Alter Code: F, but there were two separate games in the series that came about before that. Wild Arms 2 (2nd Ignition) for PS1 and Wild Arms 3 (Advanced 3rd) for PS2. So not only was it not multi platform it had a sequel that came out after this supposed multiplatform PS1 release, as well as that game having a PS2 sequel that came before this imaginary PS2 version. And to top it all of, they were separated by 9 years between releases. The PS2 remake uses fully 3D models and environments as opposed to the PS1 original only doing so in battles, and has 3 additional playable characters (Jane, Emma, and [SPOILER]), for a total of 6 when the original only had 3.
    And if anyone's curious, I recommend the PS1 original over the PS2 remake. It has larger environments (the PS2 version shrunk everything down or made them smaller) and it has a (mostly) better translation.

    At the beginning you mentioned some games being cross-platform for the PS2 and PSX e.g. Harry Potter. If I'm not mistaken, those are a different case. It's not a port, it's entirely different game but with the same IP used and build based on the same premise. But it's not a port thus it's not a cross-platform title per se.
    Correct me if I'm wrong.

    As much as Power Pad Dance Aerobics and PaRappa the Rapper did to innovate on the music game genre, Konami did so with their Bemani series. Beatmania started as a series of DJ simulation arcade games that eventually found their way to the PlayStation. How was that possible? Konami had to make original 5-key controllers that re-created the arcade experience in the consumers' living rooms. The software and controllers turned PlayStations into DJ stations. (Sort of.)

    12:34 except USA swapped X and O since basically ever. So over here that logic falls apart. I really don't know why it's always been that way. A few games for a while used O as Accept but somewhere around 1998 that just never was the case. When I got my import Vita it came as X being Accept but once I exploited it, it went back to USA X and O settings.

      I mean in japan has always been the other way, so the logic applies, Sony of japan should have enforced using circle to confirm for all regions and be consistent about it.

      When I bought the ps3 it was in 2017,
      I've only played on pc my whole life,
      I was confused by this decision,
      I got so curious that I went to check if I was alone in thinking that x should be the cancel button and O the confirm button

    Still have my original ps1 (that was just called a PlayStation back then)... it may or may not have a chip in it still...and it may or may not still be able to play games my dad got from a bloke at work that would provide a list of games for £5 each ;-)
    I used to live in japan a few years back... circle and X are a big part of Japanese culture to mean yes and no. In fact when i'd mark student papers we used a circle to mark things correct, X for things that are wrong (or half X like a tick), and a triangle was used to give a 1/2 point (essentially to draw attention that it's almost right and to look again) ... they didn't use a tick.
    several games would use circle and X... and people would form and X with their arms when trying to tell you something is bad or wrong.
    Must admit it took a while to unlearn X for enter (yes) on UK consoles ... on Japanese it's circle for enter (yes)...I'm now back in the UK and still get it mixed up.

    I live in Latin America, so I had my PS1 and PS2 both chipped lol. This was kind of a "necessary evil" for people like me living in relatively smaller cities and towns, since you'd rarely see official games on sale anywhere at the time the PS1 was out. And from those you'd see, the titles would usually be very limited in variety (just 3 or 4 at most on most stores that sold games, which were not a lot of stores either), and many of them were titles that simply looked boring or were completely unknown (or both) and usually going for huge prices. It was kinda the same when the PS2 came out, though there seemed to be a little bit more variety in stores compared to before. So yeah, piracy was the way to go if you wanted to play different games that would have never gotten here otherwise, anime games included.

    Also usually X would be enter on later titles but say FF7 Circle was enter so they must of just changed it around in later titles

    I don't like it any more than you do, but according to the Playstation manual, "box" and "cross" are the official designations for "square" and "x". You're totally right about Circle though.

    15:25 - why would you bother?
    video cds were a great thing back then, because they were affordable. on black market or the web you found hollywood movies put on 600mb cds, you could easily copy with a (not so cheap) cd writer and 600mb was somewhat you could download over days on slow internet connections.
    a friend and me got a vast collections of movies, theater-rips and old gems written on blank cds you could by in packets of 10 to 50 back then.
    video quality was no concern. being able to watch a movie home on your psx or pc was groundbreaking and the displays were low resoluted. it was way before average people thought about hd or stuff.

    You can’t say “its not cross, its ‘X’” and then say “its not ‘O’, it’s circle”
    They’re all shapes.
    X is a letter, not a shape.
    X does not mean, nor does it spell ‘no’.
    But a cross, particularly in that orientation, does mean no. Think of road signs and stuff.
    It’s cross. The inventor of the PlayStation said as much.
