Games that SHOULD Have Been on the PlayStation Classic!

It's no secret that Sony's attempt to cash in on the "mini console" trend failed pretty horribly, mainly due to its poor emulation and bizarre game choice.
I was thinking about the games I'd have loved to have seen on the unit and I'm pretty sure that, if these games were on there, I'd have bought that thing on day 1.
There aren't any particularly spicy takes here but do you agree with my list? What would you have preferred to see on the Sony PlayStation Classic?
All footage not from the PlayStation Classic was recorded from original hardware via the RetroTINK 5X.

At least we can add games to the ps classic mini now

Yeah and once you use the more updated version of PCSXReArmed, it actually runs all the games pretty much perfectly. Absolutely mental how good this thing could have actually been.

Just got a ps2 that only reads ps1 games. Fired up thps 3 and wow. 240p looks just unreal on a CRT thru component. It's so sharp! Can't wait to get my actual PS1 working

I think I'll keep emulation on something like a PC. I can't see myself buying any of the "classic" consoles. My brother has a SNES classic and I had fun modding it but I wouldn't go out of the way to buy one in this point in time

Oh yeah, if you've got all the original gear there's not much need to get one of the mini consoles. I got mine pretty cheap so it was just a fun modding project. It's currently set up in the living room for when I need it.

Tunners talk time is always good! I'd have had Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha instead of Soul Edge and most of the other games aren't really my thing, but I appreciate how beloved SH and RE2 are for sure.

I was debating Ex Plus Alpha but I'm so shit at it I couldn't get past the first one or two stages. A lot of the games here aren't massive favourites of mine either, but the original game list was sooooo bad and even these would do a much better job of repping the ps1.

Half of these games I own already and the other half I have on emulator

Licensing and other corporate nonsense is the reason the original line up was rubbish in the first place

@tunnotron3000 2 күн бұрын

Yeah, I definitely think a lot of it was licensing and the rest was corporate shenanigans/tone deafness. When you're licensing Metal Gear Solid from Konami, why not get Silent Hill too? I'm sure there was a lot going on behind the scenes that could potentially explain it but, in some ways, maybe it was better to just not release a mini console at all.

Twisted Metal 2 was all-around an improvement over the first game and should have been the one included, but like the point of the video, just add it yourself.

Yeah I don't think I could win with Twisted Metal. It was never a game I played when the PS1 was big and I'm terrible at both of them. I did actually capture footage of the second one but I did so poorly I thought it might just be best to leave Twisted Metal as is!
