The PS5 Slim is WEIRD…
Ойындар
It's baaaack! It's been a long time since I've made a foreign disc video, but I decided to bring it back for the PS5 slim. For the nostalgia. I also decided to try some other experiments with the removable disc drive... since that's a new thing. Hope you enjoy this blast to the past!

This whole disc drive is crazy. Never would imagine a disc drive needing to be connected to the internet.

At first when i heard i thought it was bad for game console perservation but if you gonna think about it it just makes sense because you need the software/firmwire to remarry the disc drive to the console just like on PS3 and PS4 you cant just swap the disc drives you need to remarry them its just like the drivers for peripherals or gpu on PC I think Sony did a great job for the modular disc drive but they need to do an offline tool to remarry the drive just like their firmwires on PS3, PS4 and PS5 you can install it without an internet if you download the file and put it on and flashdrive then put the flashdrive on your console then install i think that is the solution for it Sony is gonna find a fix for that in the future dont worry

Love seeing Jacob r doing these types of things with any console.
There is still a high chance the data will be corrupted by disconnecting the disk drive like that. I reckon if you disconnected it then immediately unplugged the PS5 it would corrupt and data left in the RAM.
@user-uu9up5fe5t
7 ай бұрын
if the ps5 is turned off (not sleep) or unplugged without any power there is no data left in the ram anyway so no corruption can occour other than faulty game files which nowadays even consoles verify the data after copy, that means if u reuplug and continue the install / download it checks where it stopped & verify the last couple gibabyte or so, also a reason why ur console wont start the copy/download immediately - tho it still can happen but very very rare, maybe if u unplug - insta replug & unplug over and over again

Wii U discs are actually pretty unique. Even shaped a lil different on the edges if you look closely. And i think it is a form of Blu Ray

Wii U discs are essentially identical to Blu-ray Discs with minor modifications so Nintendo didnt have to pay the Blu-ray Disc Association for every disc printed, I believe the modifications are that it uses an irregular file system , the thickness is different and a smoothing technique is used on the rim of the disc.

Its funny although, I guess I just watch these videos because I miss my consoles a smidge. I only have a custom built PC now, but I do miss consoles always a few friends who don't have PCs + of course the Sony exclusives. I was kinda looking forward to Wolverine, hopefully it can come to PC someday in the next few years....

I love these sorts of videos... And like you said, seeing those videos of stuff like "This is an XBOX game, please insert the disc in an XBOX console" and whatnot were always weirdly fascinating Same goes for the Dreamcast/Saturn data error things Every type of console "special" messages and errors are awesome c:
Thanks for the video's Jacob. Question for you from the video, at one point it was asking you to change the region coding of the drive. Is this a function that I can access off the dashboard or is it just accessible only when I put in say a region B or C Blu-ray ( I have a bunch of region locked Blu's in storage). If this is possible to make it a region different system, how would I be able to do it? Thanks
The region for the video partition of Xbox discs should be region free. Fun fact, the video on the OG Xbox discs is a video of one of the planned original boot screens.
I remember back in 2016 when I bought the Fallout Anthology collection and I was put off that I had to set up a Steam account, as I didn't have stable home Internet back in those days. I've gotten used to software DRM since then, but I am beyond pissed at the recent rise in HARDWARE BASED DRM. From blacklisted cell phones to blacklisted PS5 consoles to DISK DRIVES?!?

Do you have to authenticate if you have a drive plugged in, remove it the correct way and then reinstall the same drive? It be crazy if you have to do that everything you unplug a drive

good video I missed you old videos where you put random disc in console
You can definitely the console around with a disc in it but you must do it slowly
Curious ?, have you tried game detection of games in their digital or streamable back-compat list? If so, what were your results?
If you change the region of the discdrive will it be specific for that seperate discdrive or is it the entire console? Lets say you want one discdrive for europe region games and one for usa. Please test that out by swaping the discdrives back and forth.

“An” experimental PS5. Pro tip… Whenever there is a word starting with a vowel following ‘a,’ you add an n. An owl, an apple, an evening out, etc. Of course I don’t think you should have used the same word twice in the same sentence, either. “This is quite the experimental PS5,” would have been short and concise. Good day to you, sir.

They still have the scholastic book fair at the elementary school I used to go to. My younger siblings still go there
took me back to 2020 when you used to do it keep it up 👍
My question is in the last video when you first turned on that PS five did you still have to register that disc drive? Because if so, that means now that you have to have an Internet connection when you first set up your PlayStation 5? Kinda like they all are slim models out of the box until you register the drive, even if it comes with one?

Thank you fore bringing back the foren disk videos!!!!!!! Classic Jacob r
Where do you even go to change dvd region on your PS5? I never get that option
I just started watching and cant stop
How’s the noise level on the new disk drive compared to the old one on the phats?
The definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results
Scholastic book fairs existed in the 1990s as well, when I went to school.
its impossible to register de disc unit without actualice to the last version of firmware of the PS5 ? or can be? can you try it?
Thank you for doing these experiments! It’s awesome seeing that it looks like Sony has taken steps to make sure that the average person won’t be able to accidentally brick their system
When you went to put that GameCube disc in I was worried because I am old enough to remember when 3” CD singles were a brief thing they were the same size and you could not to put those in slot loading drives because they would get stuck. 😮
I wish they had the removable disc drive on the OG PS5.
i was miss old videos thanks
Please can you do a power outage test? What’s going to happen if I’m downloading a game and I cut the power Will the download restart or continue from where it stopped On the ps4 the download kicks off from when the download was saved last
i know the foreign disk series but i cant call myself a og because i just started watching you a year ago
Big chungus really caught me off guard
Is it possible to use a foreign external blu ray disc drive on PS5 digital an be able to play?
The reason why the ps1 disc wasn't exactly reading correctly is probably because the ps1 used CD's to store games not DVD's
Have you done this with Xbox serie x also or just ps5?

How do you get yourself to do these videos with your ps5. I would be so scared to spend money, then damage it.
Have you tried to put in Disc 1 of the Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection?
Good video Jacob!
When is it coming out in the uk
Curious fact: the ps4’ and the ps5’ optical drives lack the IR laser needed for CDs, since the ps1 game is a CD, not a DVD or blu-ray it just thinks the disc it’s damaged and tries again, when it’s in fact incapable of reading it. They just have the red and blue-violet lasers for DVDs and blu-rays respectively.
