If you are looking for BIOS/Firmware files, you can find them on the {{Infobox console|title = PlayStation|logo = sony-1.png|developer = [[:Sony]]|type = [[:Category:Home consoles|Home video game console]]|generation = [[Emulator Files:Category:Fifth-generation_video_game_consoles|Fifth generation]] page.|release = 1994|discontinued = 2006|successor = [[PlayStation 2 emulators|PlayStation 2]]|emulated = {{✓}}}}
==Downloads==The '''[[wikipedia:PlayStation_(console)|PlayStation]]''' (frequently referred to in shorthand as the '''PS1''') is a fifth generation console released by [[wikipedia:Sony Computer Entertainment|Sony Computer Entertainment]] on December 3, 1994 in Japan and September 9, 1995 in the US. It was retailed for {{Inflation|USD|299.99|1995}}. It had a R3000 CPU (which was used by NASA for a space craft to take pictures of Mars because of it's reliablity) at 33.8688 MHz with 2MB of RAM and 1MB of VRAM. It used a proprietary MDEC video compression unit, which is integrated into the CPU, allowing for playback of full motion video at a higher quality than other consoles of its generation. It actually had better stereo sound that other stereos at that time.
===Internet Archive===It was a commercial success, partly due to being relatively easy to program for compared to others at the time and because its CD-based media was cheaper than the competition.

This helps you avoid downloading upwards of 400 gigabytes just to get only a fraction of the contents. The archive also creates torrents of each entry (that are not the same as any original torrents the user may have uploaded) that you can use to speed up your downloads, but be warned however that these torrents can be problematic if the uploader has added/removed/renamed files in the collection as they tend to not update correctly, if at all, so you may end up with only part of the collection, or an older version of the collection. A better recommendation is to use ! scope="col"|[[#Download ManagersEmulation Accuracy|a download manager listed belowAccuracy]] to grab all the files rather than use the torrents.:! scope="col"|<small>'''''NOTE:''' If downloads are restricted (greyed out), copy the file name abbr title="Free/Libre and append it to the end of the URL (ie: <nowiki>https://archive.org/downloads/NameOfPack Open-Source Software"> https://archive.org/downloads/NameOfPack/ROMPack.zipFLOSS</nowiki>)''</smallabbr>! scope="col"|Active{| class! scope="wikitable mw-collapsible sortablecol"|[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]

:Quickly became a top contender on the basis that it has high compatibility and a built-in GUI. Its stated goal is to be "as accurate as possible while maintaining performance suitable for low-end devices," as well as long-term maintainability on the developers' part. While PCSX-R has long dethroned ePSXe in features, DuckStation is the first to actually address all the shortcomings of plugin-based offerings thus far, as all of its features are available out-of-the-box, and no configuration is necessary to get games running outside of obtaining the original system firmware. The graphics emulation core<!-- is a brand new, from-scratch implementation (todo: verify) and--> has modern enhancements built-in like PGXP, upscaling, texture filtering, hardware (D3D11, OpenGL, Vulkan) and software rendering (both of which have true colour (24-bit) support). It also natively supports MAME's Compressed Hunks of Data (CHD) format, which shrinks the size of CDs losslessly while also storing them under a single file. An Android version is also available, but is not yet feature complete. The unofficial libretro core is Retroachievements compatible.
==ROM & ISO Websites==;[[Mednafen]]:Is focused on [[Emulation Accuracy|accuracy]], which makes it very compatible, and it's been known to outperform Sony's official PSone emulator in accuracy tests.<!-- Do note if you find an exception, though. --> However, there are a few hurdles to using it; it requires a very specific BIOS for each region, and the program itself interfaces from a shell only; it has no GUI. You can still drag-and-drop cue files onto the executable to load games, and the program will log errors to a text file called <code>stdout</code> whenever a crash happens. External GUI launchers are available.:;Beetle PSX::This fork by the RetroArch developers has several experimental modifications and enhancements that aren't present in the standalone version, including a widescreen hack, CPU overclocking for smoother framerates, and increasing the internal resolution up to 8x. Increasing the resolution carries a ''heavy'' performance cost, however, since graphics are rendered in software; an alternative core exists for hardware rendering. See [https://www.maketecheasier.com/retroarch-ps1-emulation/ this 2018 guide] for setting up Beetle HW in RetroArch.

An Certain image formats and CD dumping methods don't support this format correctly and end up with the CD-DA tracks missing or corrupted, hence no audio.

For PlayStation 3 * The European regional versions of many PS1 games tended to have a copy protection embedded, so they could cause problems with backing up images in that these game backups could cause hangs or show a black screen infinitely in a typical emulator. A basic way to avoid that problem is to try the US regional versions. Another way is to patch it using a .sbi file which contains the protection information needed to run the game updates.::The perfect solution possible, at least for the '''ePSXe''' emulator (and perhaps other similar plugins-based emulators) would be (No virtual drive mounting needed):::1.
