The PlayStation (codenamed PSX, abbreviated as PS, and retroactively PS1 or PS one) is a home video game console developed and marketed by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released in Japan on 3 December 1994, followed by North America on 9 September 1995, Europe on 29 September 1995, and other regions following thereafter. As a fifth-generation console, the PlayStation primarily competed with the Nintendo 64 and the Sega Saturn.
For the disc drive you have an option to have a working region-locked UK disc drive, or the ability to load games from SD Card that replaces the disc-drive.
The console can come with original controllers as an optional extra or the base console without.
Additionally, if you wanted to use modern controllers like the PS5 or Xbox controllers, you could select Wireless Dongles option. These plug into the controller port then you pair them with your modern wireless controller (PS5 recommended). The wireless controllers are not supplied.
A popular option is to have a modded console to allow you to load games from SD card instead of disc. Selecting this option the console will come fully setup, including a brand-new SD card fully configured and ready to play games from SD card.
Theres not much use in a PlayStation without the ability to save games. Our memory cards are brand new and function as multiple memory cards for tons of storage needs.
This does what it says on the tin. Upgrades the output from composite (those old yellow, red and white round connectors) to modern HDMI, while maintaining the original composite output if you still desire to use the original connector.
If your monitor does not support the old composite video, you might be best getting the HDMI upgrade.
Simple, clean HDMI output. Holding Select + X + O brings up an on-screen menu where you can choose some scaling and scanline options.

Retro Enthusiast
RetroSix is a family run business led by Luke, who has been in the gaming industry and retail business since 2013, and sold consoles, controllers and even designed our own controllers and consoles.
We repair and upgrade consoles while showing them off on our social channels such as TikTok.
We sell products for restoring your own consoles should you wish to do it yourself, including many of our own hardware we design and manufacture in-house.
Finally, we print directly onto products to create unique one-off designs of things like Game Boys, Game Gears and anything that has a relatively flat surface we can print on. Checkout our Printed Products sections to buy some or design your very own.
We started RetroSix not as a mass market business, instead with the aim of perfection. Recreating moulds of original shells, casting them from quality ABS, redesigning hardware such as power supplies, USB-C, audio and more, to upgrade your consoles to the highest quality available. No cheap junk sold for profit.
Partners
We believe partnering with other likeminded companies is a great way to help each other out and ultimately make products that are better for the end consumer.
Of course, we sell and ship worldwide direct from source if you would like to purchase direct from anywhere in the world.
