The Playstation Birth
Remember when the PS1 was released? It was a gaming miracle, and laughed in the face of its useless rivals. Only a decade on has Sony’s iron fist loosened on the gaming market. We now look at how the PS3 was created, and what affect it had on gaming.
The tale starts with the name Ken Kutaragi. Have you heard of him? He is best known as the “Father Of The Playstation”. Why? Because he was the instrumental person in the creation of the greatest gaming console in history. In the late eighties, Ken saw his daughter playing Nintendo’s NES, and after studying his daughter playing the console, and after doing his homework, he came to the conclusion that gaming had an immense potential.
Ken made a connection with Nintendo to develop the sound chip for the NES’s successor, the Super NES. The sound chip was later called The SPC700. Since this was an advanced piece of hardware, it made an impression at Sony and Nintendo. Of course, Sony wanted nothing to do with gaming, because at the time, gaming was alien compared to TV and radio.
It took Kutaragi a while to get Sony on his side. The one thing that got Sony to consider gaming, was when the SPC700 was a success, and since a Sony employee helped in it’s creation, Sony finally considered gaming. Sony created the popular format known as the compact disk, and initially, Sony and Nintendo decided to meet up and discuss a CD add-on for the SNES.
Sony executives showed heavy criticism towards this, but Ken had to rely on the sheer power of Norio Ohga, the president of Sony at that stage. They were the only two who supported the campaign, and Ohga even showed doubt during the process. Ken was eventually given permission to meddle in gaming with the grudging support of other Sony heads.
The Sony-Nintendo partnership was set to be announced at the Consumer Electronics Show 1991, but in a shocking twist, Phillips took Sony’s place, and Nintendo decided to partner with them instead. What’s even more surprising, there were a few late disagreements. Why is this surprising? If these disagreements didn’t occur, then the PS1 would have shipped able to play Super NES cartridges!
Anyway, with Nintendo dropping out, Sony had to go the gaming distance on its own, without any gaming knowledge. Sony developed the at-the-time powerful 3D graphics chip, getting ready to release the PS1, and also designing the controller. Obviously you know the legendary PS1 controller. After all the creases were ironed out, and the list was double checked, Sony was finally ready to release the mighty PS1. On the frosty winters day of the 4th of December 1994, Japan was introduced to the PS1, just in time for Christmas. For a company who developed a console with no know-how, it accurately resembles a cinderella story. 97% of the PS1’s stock was sold in the first month alone. Not much point in mentioning this, but Ken Kutaragi gained a lot of respect within Sony.
The next year, Sony released the PS1 in the United States. Sony also made sure they had a shrewd marketing technique for the PS1. They made sure they targeted at an older audience, as well as making it look like to “cool” alternative to Sega’s Saturn. Sony was only getting some American respect as it was a Japanese company, so nobody could predict what would happen when the PS1 was released. There was no need to wait until it’s release, over 100,000 PS1s were pre-ordered!
Not only did the PS1 pull gaming into the realms of 3D, it also became the most successful console of the time, with nearly every gamer having one at the time, and most gamers ready to admit they owned one these days. Gaming would have never been the same without the legendary PS1, and with the PS2 and PS3 to follow, with both expanding greatly on its predecessor, who knows what the next console will bring to the table!
