During the early 90s, Nintendo and Sony were working together to make a joint console called the "Nintendo Playstation". However this was cancelled through a series of events, betrayals, and competition. Today we look at the complete history of the Nintendo Playstation

This was really interesting and also tragic in many ways. I wonder what gaming looks like in the parallel worlds that got the Nintendo PlayStation and Super Nintendo CD.
Bet Sega would still be around as a console manufacturer if this stood lol
What a tangled web of petty company politics backfiring tremendously!
Gaming politics at its finest lol
Sony was growing into other markets. They started to enter the movie and music (label) industry. Nintendo felt that Sony would take over Nintendo and absorb them into Sony. That's why. Not this rehashed myth.
@@Auxodium I’ve heard about that in recent years. There were definitely many factors involved. Either way, it still backfired on Nintendo…
@@Auxodium it's not a myth though. Nintendo felt threatened by a deal it already jumped on thinking they may go independent after a while, so they betrayed them. It's all pretty clear vut
That was a really fun watch my friend. I never knew until much later that Nintendo and Sony had made any deal of this sort so I don't remember the great betrayal that was Nintendo's 11th Hour coup de gras but I definitely remember the launch of the Playstation. What a great time that was! You had the emergence of 3d with SEGA Saturn and then there was the new kid on the block Sonys Playstation (then Nintendo 64 later) it was a true evolution happening right befor our eyes.
Honestly was an amazing era to see as a 90s kid. It's a shame we can't get that kinda excitement nowadays as we did then since technology took big jumps
@@TheObsessiveGamer It is to bad, isn't it? Idk I mean as time goes on of course graphical fidelity continues to reach new heights, but I really don't think (even with and advent of virtual reality ) that we will ever see the likes of another revolution quite like what happened in the mid to late 90s. What do I know though lol only time will tell what magic we might witness in the coming decades.
I think the sad part in this story is Sony wanted to hurt Nintendo but the company they actually destroyed was Sega. I miss getting new Sega consoles man
Sega destroyed themselves with confusing addons to the Genesis.
True they should have been focusing on just the saturn instead of releasing 10 different ways to play genesis/megadrive
Maybe I haven't been watching to write UA-camrs but I really haven't seen that much documentation about this. Thanks for doing this
No problem and thanks for watching! I feel every UA-camr that has done it has done it quite differently from one another as there are several ways to tackle this story
Lol. Every youtuber has made a video on this over the past six years since the prototype surfaced by Ben heck.
@@Auxodium pretty much, but everyone does feel like they cover it in their own way
hehehe philips CD-i. As a kid gamer, at one place they were demonstrating new equipment, Hi-Fi systems, large TVs. I was intrigued when a guy was playing with a CD-i. First time seeing this.
Truly the ps0
Haha, we need it released as that
“$299” 🔥🔥🔥
That beginning clip of Crash is the icing of it. Nintendo created their own worst nightmare competitor in history.
Pretty much. That clip being in the beginning was set there afterall to set the tone of the whole video afteall haha
But now Soyny is collapsing and Nintendo is back on top, luckily.
Man, Nintendo and Sega kinda created their own worst enemy back then.
I wish some game prototypes for the Nintendo Play Station leaked, and we had a NPS emulator. That'd be fun to play.
No Super Mario Brothers CD for Super Famicom CD unfortunately
A shame though I would wonder what they could add with that? animated cutscenes? Talking Mario with Martinet starting earlier?
@@TheObsessiveGamer they have plans for a sequel to Mario world called Mario wacky worlds for the CDI and Famicom CD it was canceled but a prototype was found
@@Themasktrooper oh I knew about it for the CDI, but wasn't aware of a SNES CD version
@@TheObsessiveGamer they was also Mario takes America a educational game and the return of Donkey Kong
Interesting. Anywhere I can read up on those further? Would be neat to make a video covering these in the future
You know if Nintendo PlayStation come true think of the future i think games like GTA might be different
Ken koutaragi just wanted to kiss some big N arse with an audio chip and ends up creating an elusive monster or a console. Do elusive that ben heck figures he found a retirement investment that ended up underperforming. This is why seeing smb sealed carts selling for a million bucks pisses me off to this day. I think I'd rather buy a million in scratch off tickets before I'd count on Nintendo lost hardware to fund my afterwork life. Seriously kids. Do what your great grandparents did. Shove it in that shoulda been replaced twenty years ago guest bedroom mattress
What are you trying to say?
@@TheObsessiveGamer I'll find you a link to the definitive Nintendo PlayStation documentary. That'll explain it better
The original Sony PlayStation is still my favorite Sony console.
Honestly was a magical console. It's hard for me to choose between the PS1 and PS2 in my case
@@TheObsessiveGamer PS2 imo. More of its games hold up, though PS1 is close behind and holds up better than people think.
I'd rank DS right after those too.
There was never going to be a "Nintendo PlayStation". The PlayStation was always going to be a Sony product. Look at the prototype. Do you see a Nintendo logo anywhere on it?
This myth that Nintendo "created" their greatest rival is just that. A myth. Once Sony decided they wanted to get into the video game industry, they became Nintendo's greatest rival, because they were willing to do anything (including lose money for well over a decade) to succeed. Nintendo very wisely extricated themselves from a deal that would have seen them become, essentially, a second party working for Sony and the entire industry would have been worse off for it.
Course it wasn't going to be called that, it's just a fan name to refer to the collaboration. However it was still a collaboration between the two, thus they both had a stake in it and share. It required the SNES to run afterall. So yes they still did create their greatest rival with that betrayal, but as you stated it still could have happened anyways if Sony built themselves up using this and went independent after. Basically Yamauchi's worry. Eitherways they may have been damned if they did, damned if they didn't
Iirc they found a CD addon for snes by sony
Thank you Nintendo, for backstabbing Sony for our sake.
Honestly makes you think if the PS1 would have had the same quality it had if this didn't happen
Still have my Nintendo Playstation
ALL NEO
Austin is cypher

I still wonder what would have been if we received the Play Station/SNESCD.
My best guess is it'd expand the console's capabilities in a similar manner as the MegaCD did but then again, how could would it be if all those PS1 titles ended up being on that CD addon which optionally can also be purchased as its own console?
Crazy to think Sega and Nintendo could of still been alive today if they just gave the young buck sony a chance to be an ally, but made him into an enemy 😈
..uh Nintendo is still alive today
I sometimes do think by myself, hotdamnit if the playstation just flopped and the sega saturn became successful, then nintendo would,ve never regretted cancling their play station project with sony ,same thing with sega who rejected a deal to co’operate with sony, altrough you still can find sony chips inside the sega CD and early models of the sega saturn soit wasn’t all black and white😁
Oh interesting. Wasn't aware of the Sony chips in Sega CD. Something to research
and don’t forget the sega saturn as well because early models of the sega saturn also do containsome sony chips inside, now in case you gonna do some research to it then i definitely would appreciate if you gonna make a video about it as it might could flip upside down the videogame history, you might call it ‘left over assets between sony and sega’😁👍
@@TheObsessiveGamer
All about money. So sad
Yamauchi was greedy like that unfortunately.
Lol, this is a very satisfying story. I love it when Nintendo loses.
Heh it's a fun story to see this sometimes
@@TheObsessiveGamer Yeah, especially because some of the best years for nitnendo fans were when Nintendo was having a hard time.
@@RevaliHeeHo First party wise the N64 was definitely peak but I do give a lot of that a thanks to Rare
