Placing PS1 that way is atrocious
PS2 also developed laser issues if used that way, I can't recall PS3
ps2 developed laser issues regardless. i've tuned and cleaned so many of those. should have charged but i liked my friends.
Hell, the PS5 is shown vertical but with the stand in the horizontal configuration. The PS2 and PS4 also had stands available because they weren't stable on their side out of the box, and the systems aren't shown with them. Unsure about the PS3.
Some of us had to play ours upside down after the laser got all jank or something
Haha yup. My OG PlayStation only worked upside down.
True, the real way was upside down because the laser wouldn't read the disc after a few years and it needed a little gravity boost to get closer.
When it would wear out putting it like that would extend it's use before being repaired/replaced.
