PlayStation 1: accessories and play experience

Discover the functions and game ideas behind these accessories and how they complement your way of playing.

From directional pad to analogue sticks

The first PlayStation controller used a directional pad, while later controllers added analogue sticks. Supported games use these for smoother movement or steering; DualShock adds vibration too.

Saving an adventure for later

The memory card stores your progress separately from the game CD. It can hold championships, unlocked content and adventures, with each game using its own amount of storage space.

Playing together in the CD era

A second controller turns a football match, race or fight into a sofa duel. Some games support more players through a multitap, allowing a larger group to join in.
