Hey not a bad site you have there....
I'm wondering though...
your website is associated with the PSP and Xbox 360, right? So why are you doing a history of the playstation on your site? I know the PSP has the playstation name, but I think that's pretty much just a name used for extra sales, and that the real history of the playstation lies exclusively in sony's console efforts.
But that's just me.

Thanks, but it's for my other site, souldotless.com, which I recently registered, heh.

On 9/9/95 you could walk into a store and buy:
NBA JAM Tournament Edition
Street Fighter: The Movie
Rayman
ESPN Extreme Games
Kileak - The DNA Imperative
Raiden Project
Ridge Racer
Battle Arena Tohshinden
Don't let idiots tell you MK3 or Tekken were launch games as MK3 didn't hit stores until October 7th and Tekken wasn't until November 8th.

Namco's Air Combat came out 4 days later, on the 13th. PGA Tour 96 came out on the 23rd.
November was the killer month for the system with Wipeout, Warhawk, Twisted Metal, Tekken, Gameday, Destruction Derby and Jumping Flash.

Well, it was 1995. You have to go back and compare it to the launches of that early to mid 90s era (Saturn, Jaguar, 3DO, 32X, SegaCD, SNES, and Genny I guess for that matter.) None of them featured any kind of rowsing quantity and quality together. I think the biggest selling point in Sept. 95 was Ridge Racer and how much it bitch slapped Sega's sloppy Daytona conversion for Saturn.

Uh, both great games. Trillion times better than the trash at the PSX launch, Rayman excluded.

N64 probably had smalled launch line up of any successful console.

Raiden Project was a great game, and the first really good home versions of Raiden 1 and 2. Rememberm this is well before MAME.
Ridge Racer is not a gaem I like, but it's up there with Pilotwings, I'd say.

That is just you because it makes no sense. Whatever the motivation for using the name, PSP is now part of PlayStation history and is very much a part of the brand going forward. That's just stupid. Sony hasn't seperated the brands, and so PSP = part of PlayStation history.
In fact, even part of Nintendo console history... its handhelds should be included. It's Nintendo Gameboy, Nintendo DS, Super Nintendo/Famicom, Nintendo/Famicom. These are Nintendo videogame brands. Gameboy is as much as Nintendo console history as PSP will become part of Sony's PlayStation brand.
