While many PlayStation fans today are on the fifth iteration of the console, old school gamers will still have a place in their heart for the PS1. Released in Japan 30 years ago in 1994 (followed by Europe in 1995), the first PlayStation console revolutionised video gaming with the use of CDs and went on to sell more than 100 million units in just 10 years.
Sony stopped producing the PlayStation 1 in 2006; by this time, it had already released the PS2, and was getting ready to release the PS3. But for those looking for a walk down memory lane, the nostalgic console continues to be resold on platforms like eBay.
