Sony's PlayStation was born out of a failed partnership with Nintendo in the early 1990s. Ken Kutaragi and Sony Computer Entertainment in Japan led the console's development, with additional input from the United Kingdom. The PlayStation's design was all about 3D polygon graphics, which was a major selling point. Sony made sure that game production was streamlined, making it easy for third-party developers to jump on board.

The PlayStation was a game-changer for Sony, marking their dominance in the video game industry. It was a massive success, selling over 100 million units in less than a decade. Its use of compact discs was a game-changer, leading to the industry's transition from cartridges. The PlayStation's success paved the way for a line of successors, starting with the PlayStation 2 in 2000. Sony also released a cheaper and smaller model, the PS One, in the same year.

With three iterations released over the console's lifespan, the original PlayStation controller revolutionized the gaming industry. Featuring four individual directional buttons, a pair of shoulder buttons on both sides, and four face buttons with simple geometric shapes, the PlayStation controller established a trademark that would be incorporated heavily into the PlayStation brand. The circle and cross represent "yes" and "no", while the triangle symbolizes a point of view and the square is equated to a sheet of paper to access menus. Designed by Teiyu Goto, the PlayStation controller is a game-changer that will take your gaming experience to the next level.
