PlayStation 1

Does anyone have any evidence that there is a system called the PlayStation 1 that is distinct from the original playstation. If not then this article should be deleted. Foogol 19:46, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

• Redirect 1.7 million Google hits for PlayStation 1. Durova 20:02, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Yeah, but do those results say that PlayStation 1 is actually a distinct videogame system from the original PlayStation which this article is implying? I doubt it. Foogol 20:50, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Not as far as I could tell. I'm not voting to merge. Durova 03:35, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as mispelling. --JiFish(^Talk/_Contrib) 20:54, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as misspelling/unofficial name. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 01:10, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to PlayStation. The article actually describes PSone, which is practically the same machine as PlayStation but in a different form factor. However, when people specifically say "PlayStation 1", they're usually referring to the original PlayStation. Or, if they say "a PlayStation 1 game", it means it runs on any hardware compatible with the original PlayStation. And people usually seem to expressly say that; Saying "a PlayStation game" will make people say "for which PlayStation was it made for?" (Thank you, Sony, for your fine unambiguous product naming.) It's a common unofficial name. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 19:14, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

• Move this to PSone, I agree. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 11:45, 26 November 2005
• Note: PSOne already redirects to Playstation where the PSOne is covered under PSone#Variants. --JiFish(^Talk/_Contrib) 19:28, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
