A Trip Down Memory Lane: Celebrating PlayStation’s 29th Anniversary
Today marks the 29th anniversary of the original PlayStation. When it launched in Australia, this unassuming grey console was priced at A$699.95 (approximately A$1,447 adjusted for inflation), making it a more affordable option compared to its 3D-challenged competitor, the Sega Saturn.
The PlayStation’s success was monumental, with 8,000 titles released over its lifespan, which saw an install base of 100 million units. This console birthed iconic franchises such as Tekken, Crash Bandicoot, Gran Turismo, and Resident Evil. My personal favorite, the SCPH-1002 model, still runs like a charm, reminding me of countless gaming adventures.
