    Not really. And that’s a PSX, the PSOne was smaller and had round edges.

        PSX was Sony’s designation for the OG Playstation.

          But PS1 and PSX are both retail product names for different systems, I don’t see calling the Wii “Revolution”…

        No, it has been originally named PSX long before the PS2 was even a thought.

          It was never officially named PSX, but it was called that way by people for some reason. I guess to differentiate the fat and slim versions.

            The name spread at the time even before the release of the console, so everyone called it that, even websites listed it as PSX. The slim PSOne version came much later, arguably even too late to be of any significance for anyone or anything.

          Literally untrue I promise, even worse, you’re extra wrong because the PSX is actually the name of a Japanese specific set top entertainment box that also played PS2 games and was the introduction of the XMB ( Cross Media Bar ) interface that the PSP and PS3 both used.

          The small PlayStation did have the official designation of PSOne though.

            Are you some infantile bot or why do you keep repeating what’s already been addressed? lol It was PSX, everyone called it PSX, even websites called it PSX. I know because I had one. You can even still see in the wiki page that its codename was PSX.

              Confusingly (and as I discovered in this thread) the name “PSX” is both the release name for the ps2/recorder and the code name for the original PlayStation.

              The PlayStation (abbreviated as PS, commonly known as the PS1/PS one or its codename PSX)

              Not to be confused with PSX (digital video recorder) or PlayStation Experience.

              So technically you’re both right and both wrong!
