I wanted to try out Dune for the first time and it just didn’t power on. I am not ok. I took a look inside and cleaned it, but there’s no obvious loose connections. Today is a sad day for me
Check fuses. It may just have a blown fuse in the power supply or on the motherboard. It also may just be an issue with the power button.
That said, I haven’t had a PS1 in years. Modern emulators like DuckStation can even play real discs but give you all sorts of benefits like upscaling, correction for polygon/texture warping, modern video outputs, etc. I regularly play my PS1 games, but I do so via an emulator on my Steam Deck.
I prefer the real thing to an emulator, for PlayStation at least. I did try an emulator years ago but it’s not as good.
Power supply fuse is good, but I didn’t disassemble far enough to see the motherboard. Hopefully it will be as easy as replacing that fuse! Thanks for the tip
