Sony PS One (SCPH-100 or 101 or 101)

The PS One was introduced the same month as the Playstation 2. In September 2000, the PS One debuted for $99.99 USD. In that price the customer recieved the new colored Dual Shock controller,a demo disc, the new AC adapter, and a set of AV cables. Also released for the system was a battery back for on the go, a 5" LCD screen ($129.99 USD), and the new-colored memory cards ($14.99 USD). In January of 2002 the PS One was repackaged with the screen for $199.99 USD. On May 14, 2002 Sony dropped the price of the system to $49.99 USD and the price of the bundle (system with screen) to $149.99 USD. The screen by itself stayed at $129.99 USD. Since it was a redesign of the original, there were some features that were missing most notably the serial port that allowed two Playstations to connect together to play on separate TVs. The PS One was about 2/3 the size of the original Playstation and featured load times that were miliseconds faster too. The major selling point of the new Playstation was the extreme portability that the system was to offer. With the screen and battery pack, the system could be taken on camping trips, planes, and other places where electricity was easily accessable. For car trips, Sony also released the DC adapter kit for $29.99 USD.
