Why hasn't this console been as fetishised as others by the "geek™" community?

Also
>calling it a PSX
>>
>>384003765
Individual games and series have been. The PS library was vast, while the N64 was defined by a relative handful of games which coupled with childhood memories/nostalgia are easier to invoke than the PS1's 'aesthetic'
>>
>>384003765
weve been over this a hundred times.

Ps1 has a big as fuck library with quality AND quantity games in every genre.

N64 has the same 5 games everybody played who owned the console

People that owned a Playstation eventually became functional adults or normies, the same can't be said about N64 owners, it has nothing to do with console specs or library (both had fucking incredible libraries) but with the playerbase

It's utilitarian, was replaced by the PS2 then the PS3. There's no reason to own an actual PlayStation besides collector value. You also can't compare other gaming products to Nintendo fetishism. That subculture attracts deranged and underdeveloped minds.

STOP CALLING IT A PSX IT'S FUCKING PS1 WHY ARE YOU CALLING IT PSX!?

Since nobody uses cartridges for home consoles anymore, cartridge-based consoles have stronger "geek cred."
PlayStation's best games also don't fit in with "geek fashion" as much. Mario and Zelda will always be more popular than something like SotN or Silent Hill, so those are the games that get t-shirts which geeks then wear.

>>384006639
When I was a kid people either called it the (most commonly) Playstation or PSX due to magazines and of vidya media dubbing it that due to it being the codename, then the PS One happened so the PSX became necessary to separate them. I guess you had to be around during the PSX's release to get it.

>>384003765
Atari, Sega, and Nintendo consoles have timeless classics. PS1 had shovelware and Spyro.

I worked two different vidya store jobs ages ago. It was 'PSX' in the inventory/point-of-sale of both stores. It's just a habit I've kept.

>>384003765
The PS1 library requires you to be at least a little bit of a big fucking nerd to appreciate fully. Most people would at least vaguely remember stuff like Final Fantasy, Tomb Raider, Crash and Spyro.

But games ranging from DEAD IN THE WATER to the Army Man games to whatever PS1 games you're coming up with yourself are what really defined the console. These obscure, almost experimental games made the PS1 so much more worth holding onto for the last 20 years because there's so much in its library to discover.

>>
>>384011685
It was always either referred to as the "PlayStation" or rarely "PS".
Only after the PS2 was announced in 1999 did it become commonly known as the PS1. The actual PS one release solidified that.

PSX only ever re-appeared once the PS1 emulation scene started up, and even then was uncommon.
It's similar to people calling the GameCube "Dolphin". It was the first prototype designation.

So yeah, I agree, they can fuck off.
It's kind of a red-flag for being a 6th Gen or later childhood babby.

Playstation was my 3rd console generation.
I stopped calling it PSX once it was out of development, just like I stopped calling the GameCube "Dolphin."

People said "Playstation" 99+% of the time.
PSX only showed up in text abbreviation, and even then they were called out on it.
Developers are another matter since they were using "PSX" from the earliest pre-release days.

>>384013501
EGM used "Playstation" the overwhelming majority of the time.
They have have occasionally slapped PSX in when they weren't sure how to differentiate the original yet, however they eventually went with "PSone" later on.

Pedantry must make a lot of sense if you never leave your house and talk to other human beings.

NO ONE, except people who've read the Wiki article, has heard of that Japan-only PVR. Those of us who have don't give a shit. Here, in Canada and the US at least, we called the first PlayStation the PSX for short long before that thing bombed.

Called it the PSX for that reason and because the modding community referred to them as PSX due to there being multiple models with different innards. This determined if you could buy a chinese gameshark-like device to play pirated games or if you had to chip the system. Calling it "PS1" or any variation is a sign of being underage faggot.

>>384008552
At least you can run the Gameboy Player with the Gamecube, the PS1 has nothing over the PS2.

My dad called it the PS1 so that's what I call it, I guess my 48 year old father is underage
>>
Being 20, PS1 and N64 were basically out the door by the time I was sentient enough to really enjoy vidya. I bought myself a PS1 two years ago, I have to say it's probably one of my favorite systems. MGS1, Silent Hill and Grand Turismo 2 are great games.

PS1 has more 7/10, 8/10, 9/10 and 9.5/10 games than N64, the only thing the PS1 doesn't have is an Ocarina-tier game, which is in the end only one game against tons of hours of other great games that PS1 offers
>>
>>384017714
Or SM64-tier game. Or Star Fox-tier game. But yeah.

No, SM64 isn't even that good, it got the other 3D platforms at the time beat at mechanics but the level design, camera, aesthetics and replayability were inferior to its competition. That is because it was very experimental and set the foundations of its genre.

Star Fox 64 is a literal 8/10 though

PS1 had plenty of Ocarina tier games, we called them shovelwear.

OoT is fucking shit. Most overrated game I've ever fucking played. Never experienced so much disappointment in my life before. The PS1 has a better library than the N64 by a long shot. It's just that every fucking N64 owner had the same few games since it's all the system fucking had. While plenty of PS1 owners missed out on major classics since the system had such a huge and diverse library, so those classics become cult classics instead of 11/10 GOTYAY's like N64 games did.

Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Silent Hill, Spyro.

Keep going.

>>384019025

It's true though, for all the people that shat on Crash games, Mario sure copied their lineal 3D style in Galaxy and 3D Land and World instead of returning to the 64 and Sunshine formula
>>
>>384019025

He's right though.
>>
>>384018874
Mario 64 had the best controls for a 3D platformer and arguably still has. Spyro 2, while better than Banjo, still doesn't compare to SM64.
Also I fail to understand how you could compare Crash 2, a 3D platformer, with DKC2, a 2D platformer.

Everything good on ps1 has been re-released or remastered at some point. There's no point in getting nostalgic over those shitty blocky graphics. Also it was a piece of shit hardware just like every home console Sony has made.

They sure did. And people loved it so much they're ditching it.
>>
>>384020494

But 3D platforming is dead while 2D platformers and 2.5D platformers are still being produce albeit mostly in the indie scene? Yooka Laylee was a disappointment and what is left? Mario Oddysey?

What people ditched is true 3D platforming

>b-but "muh only few of those were truly great perfect 10/10 games so that doesn't count!!!"

Yeah man, i totally did not enjoy the fuck out of all these awesome games because they aren't completely perfect and timeless according to some artitrary rating.

I actually feel a bit sad for n64 owners. They missed out on so many amazing games. I went through ps1 and n64 libraries just now, and while n64 library wasn't terrible by any means, it was incredibly barren. I'm not surprised they turned into autistic, fanatical manchildren. That must be what happens to your psyche if you play the same 5 games over and over for several years, then rinse and repeat on next console. Meanwhile, I owned and played well over 100 games on my PS1.

Kek, I didn't know that "functioning adults" spent their free time on fucking /v/ of all places, complaining about how other people decided to buy a different platform.

Functioning adults don't give two squirts of duck shit what other people do with their free time.

The PS1 felt like the first 'modern' console with its use of optical discs, CD quality audio, multimedia features and in general its appeal to your average consumer, not dissimilar from its successor the PS2. Compare that to the N64 which was just another Nintendo console with a much tighter library that people tie in with their childhood based on a handful of games they enjoyed.

>>384022556
>N64
>tighter library
Less doesn't equal tighter, anon. PS1 won its generation hands down.
>>
>>384022556
>with a much tighter library
That's a nice euphemism for tiny.

>>384022858
It just didn't have as many 'okay' titles or straight up shovelware; not saying it had superior games to the PS1.

Because it was owned by niggers, asians, or yurop. Hipster numale (aka suburban white bois) owned N64.

Playstation surpasses "geek" culture. It sold over 100 million units, did N64 even cross 35? Same reason why Gameboy isn't fetishised as much
