Someone posted a bit ago about the super station one fpga system and i decided to preorder one. Now I’m curious, what would all of your essentials be for the playstation system?

No need to give me a whole list, but if you can share me some of your standouts and why, id appreciate it.

i’ve played very little of ps1 and didn’t even realize it was a system until the ps2 came out!

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Final Fantasy VII/IX (not VIII)
Tales of Phantasia (has a PSP remake with a lot of extra content but that's JP-only...)
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1/2

Wipeout 2097 - Still one of my favourite racing games of all time and has a banging soundtrack

Gran Turismo 2 - Big enough that it needed 2 discs. A classic in sim racing.

MediEvil - Fun humorous story and great atmosphere.

Spyro - It was on the demo disc.

Final Fantasy 7 & 8 - RPG classics. Nuff said.

And a bonus game that sucked:

Command & Conquer port - Buggy, lots of lag and terrible controls

Not a common suggestion, but the Scrabble PS1 port holds up surprisingly well, all the more so for how few Scrabble video games there are.

Dance Dance Revolution. It was unique, healthy, a lot of fun, and popularized a new genre: rhythm games.
