Playstation Classic - Använder OpenSource Emulator

Classic and mini versions of retro game systems have become popular to release onto the market, including the recently announced PlayStation Classic. With a very basic UI, and the chosen lineup of 20 games, many fans were disappointed and claimed that Sony's attempt at a plug and play throwback console was low effort. Complaints only furthered when it was revealed that Sony wasn't creating or reusing their own PlayStation 1 emulator for the Classic, like they had done with the PSP's POPS emulator, or with the PSP emulator that was found within the PlayStation 4 remaster of Parappa, or the emulated PlayStation 2 classic titles on the PlayStation 4 as well. Instead, Sony has opted use an emulator made by the public: PCSX ReARMed. At an event showing off the upcoming hardware, previewers were able to try out the PlayStation Classic, and found a menu listing stating that it uses open-source software, including PCSX ReARMed.

Lite lågt att använda sig av ett OpenSource project för att tjäna pengar.
Vissa project är skyddade av t.ex. GNU License så att projekten ska fortsättas hållas OpenSource, som Sony troligen inte har gjort med den här maskinen, den är högst troligast låst.
PCSX-Reloaded/Rearmed är skyddad av GNU.

Undrar varför dom inte valde att använda sig av POPS, har fungerat riktigt bra på samtliga Sony maskiner som har haft support för PSX spel.
