How is the compatibility with this mod? I've seen videos that replace the CD-ROM with a SD card reader and MCBoot memory card, but apparently there are a lot of games that won't work. Really defeats the purpose of a mod if it takes a lot of money and time and ends up not playing a large chunk of the library.....

@hopperhelp1

Жыл бұрын

@@SirReptitious the xstation accepts just about every ps1 game out there. The PSIO had a lot of games that couldn’t be accepted. The only exception I can think of is an NTSC not being able to accept PAL exclusive games, but that’s more of a color thing. The PS1 digital bypasses that. (At least this is what I’ve been told but have yet to test). The Memcard pro and xstation have firmware to work with each other seamlessly.

Hey Tito, very nice job man (as usual). I’m impressed on how complicated this install looks like, yet you make it look so easy. Unfortunately my PS one is a 900X PAL region model which isn’t compatible with either mods, but the Xstation is half price from the MODE which is a no brainer. Cheers!

Another great video, my man. You got me inspired to pick up an old PS1 even though my PS2 already plays PS1 games just fine. These videos are dangerous to my pocketbook! BTW are you going to be doing any videos on the Saturn soon? My buddy is giving me that stopped working and I can never do wrong by following your lead. Cheers & keep up the good work.

Excellent video. While more of the fine pitch soldering shown would have been nice, you still showed enough to get the general idea across. Under 25 minutes for both of these installed is a nice watch. I currently have both these mods in my drawer awaiting installation. Just bogged down with other recaps/restores atm.

Fantastic video! High class stuff! I'm planning on the ultimate PS build myself, but getting hold of the PS1Digital set...might take some time. I also need someone experienced enough to put it all together :D I already got the Xstation kit on my way though!

Due to that, I have a bunch of Japanese games, mostly RPGs for the Dreamcast and the PSX. As I got older and had jobs during the PS2 era, I bought dozens of ps1 and ps2 rpgs. I really want to do mods like this so I can play them in HD and then preserve my collection. But it seems a bit harder than the GBC, GBA, and Gamecube ones Ive tried so far =/

Great video and perfect timing yet again! I just picked up a PS1 a few days ago and wanted to do the xstation mod. Interested in selling the 3D printed bracket you didn’t use? Lol

Nice mod and the explanation was super clear on the video. Looks like a difficult mod so I went a different route on my mod. I bought a PSX launch model and swapped out the motherboard with raspberry pi 4 running Lakka. I 3D printed some USB holders for the front. Also printed some holders for hdmi and network cables for the back. I am impressed with the performance of the emulation on a pi 4. Only some simple soldering was required on the PSU board to connect to gpio for reset and power buttons to be functional.

It is truly a mod for the die hard PS1 fan. And that's OK. Given the demand for the Xstation and PS1Digital kits... there are clearly plenty of diehard PS1 fans out there! Emulation is fine, in whichever route you want to go. Be it a PC, PS1 on PS3, playing them on PSP, using the playstation classic edition... there are no "wrong" ways to enjoy the PS1 games you like / love. This is a top tier, expensive solution for those who really love the PS1 and it's library. There is something to be said for seeing that original PS1 sitting there, the one you opened up on Christmas all those years ago... the one you first popped FF7 into. Playing with the original controllers. It's 100% authentic gameplay / support.... it's not for everyone. But for the big fans of the system, who have big enough wallets... it's a great setup!

Thank you for the video

Damn bro this is some A1 production.

Just finished the video. It's great and very pleasing to watch. Good idea to focus on these two mods as I think most of us will want to install these. I would add a con, so hard to get the ps1 digital mod, always out of stock! I don't think I'll install an x station anytime soon, I like the fact that modded console can still play the physical games but that's personal preference. I would be more inclined to install a psio. Also... there's 2 minutes of black silence at the end of your video. Eager to see the next video!
