Playing some Wipeout XL on my newly-repaired Playstation (SCPH-1001, purchased in 1996) using the Namco NeGcon analog racing controller.

I've replaced the PSU and the dead optical drive on this unit with a pre-tuned unit from TotalConsole. Drop in and go. Glad to have this back up and running after several years dark.

Replacement Playstation optical drive from TotalConsole works very well -- this was being discussed as a drop-in-and-go replacement (not tuning) and it's worked with everything I've tested it with so far except one CD-R that I burned about 18 years ago.

My original Playstation from 1996, which I mod-chipped and in which I recently replaced the PSU (and optical drive).

About to take another stab at replacing the laser unit on my original PlayStation from 1996. This time, the mechanism is pre-tuned and pre-aligned. It cost twice as much, but apparently it should be drop in and go.

🤞
