This version of the “RFU Adaptor” was manufactured to fit the Playstation consoles that came after model “SCPH-1002”.
I have noticed that it is much harder to find a boxed copy of this adaptor today, than it was just a couple of years ago.
Category Archives: Hardware
[PS1] The Glove
This is the Sony licensed controller “The Glove” from Reality Quest.
Except for the controller and the instruction booklet, a VHS tape is also included. The white label on the cassette says: “PLAY THIS DEMO TAPE FIRST. PAL VERSION. Learn about “The GLOVE” for Playstation Games”.
[PS1] Analog and Digital Steering Wheel with Foot Pedals + Limited Edition Watch Bundle
Here we have a complete copy of the Sony licensed “Analog and Digital Steering Wheel with Foot Pedals” from Mad Catz.
A yellow sticker on the box states that except for the wheel, pedals and instruction booklet, this bundle also includes a cheeky Mad Catz watch.
[PS1] 2 Way Fighting Commander
I was really suprised when I found this boxed copy of the Sony licensed “2 Way Fighting Commander” controller from Hori. I thought that it never was released in Europe, but as you can see on the flags and languages that adorns the box, it definitively was.
[PS1] 10 Million Model Memory Card
This is the European version of the 10 Million Model “Memory Card”. It was produced by Sony in limited numbers to celebrate that ten million Playstation consoles had been sold. The “Memory Card” is the most common item in the 10 Million Model line.
It consists of a silver Playstation “Memory Card” in a black cardboard folder which has the text “NOT FOR RESALE” printed on the back, a sticker for the card and the instruction paper.
In comparision with the other pieces in the 10 Million Model line (the console and controller), the “Memory Card” is not so hard to find.
[PS1] asciiPad
Here we have a sealed copy of the “asciiPad” from ASCIIWare. Finding one complete with the box is actually quite difficult nowadays.
[PS1] Namco Arcade Stick
Here we have a boxed copy of the “Arcade Stick” from Namco.
The controller is not so rare, but highly sought after, since it is considered to be one of the best made arcade sticks that was manufactured for the Playstation 1.
[PS1] Playstation Dual Shock Analog Controller (Diamond Black)
This is a European, Diamond Black coloured “Dual Shock” analog controller for the Playstation 1.
There are plenty of these on ebay, in many different colours. A boxed copy should not be all too hard to find.
[PS1] Arcade Stick
This is the “Arcade Stick” from ASCIIWare. It is much more uncommon than the “Specialized Joystick”, especially with the box.
[PS1] Specialized Joystick
The “Specialized Joystick” from ASCIIWare is not very hard to find boxed and not so expensive either.
[PS1] Playstation Analog Joystick
The official Playstation “Analog Joystick” is a massive controller, mainly designed for flight simulation games and such.
Small rubber suckers, which could be put beneath the controller to make it steady, are included in a plastic bag with instructions.
This apparatus is quite uncommon with the box and the cost for it should be around £50-£150 depending on the condition.
[PS1] Sphere 360°
This is a complete copy of the “Sphere 360°” controller from ASCII. It comes in a nice looking box that contains the controller, information and instruction papers and a “Sphere 360°” training disc.
The PAL version, which my copy of course is, seems to be a bit more uncommon than the NTSC one.
[PS1] Playstation Memory Card (White)
Official white-coloured “Memory Card” in a blister pack. There are tons of these in different colours on ebay, but make sure you get a European version if you are a PAL collector like me. On most official hardware you can often see this on the letter “E” that is printed after the product number, in this case “SCPH-1020 EW”. The “E” stands for Europe and the “W” stands for white which is the colour of the card.
[PS1] Playstation Mouse
The official Playstation “Mouse”. A white Playstation mouse pad is included in the box.
Quite common hardware.
[PS1] Playstation Memory Card
This is the official Playstation “Memory Card”, boxed and with instructions. The card and the sticker for it, are still sealed.
Can be found on ebay all the time!
[PS1] ASCII Grip Controller
This is the “Grip” controller from ASCII. It is designed to be managed by just one hand and was marketed as the “RPG controller” back in the days.
My copy is complete with box, controller and instructions. Not particularly rare or expensive.
[PS1] Playstation Controller
The original Playstation “Controller”, complete with box and instruction papers. Should not be too difficult to get hold of.
[PS1] Playstation RFU Adaptor 1
This official Playstation “RFU Adaptor” is actually pretty hard to find boxed.
[PS1] G-Con45 Light Gun
Here we have the “G-Con45” light gun from Namco. According to me the best gun made for the Playstation.
Not rare at all and can be picked up on ebay anytime!
The box also includes a light gun adapter.
[PS1] Playstation Analog Controller
The official Playstation “Analog Controller” is the predecessor of the later “Dual Shock” controller. It lacks the vibration function, got longer handles and is missing the rubber cover on the analog sticks.
It is not particularly rare, but can be quite tricky to find boxed.
[PS1] Playstation Multi Tap
The official Playstation “Multi Tap”, boxed with instruction leaflet. Not hard to find at all!
[PS1] Playstation AV Adaptor
The official Playstation “AV Adaptor” seems to be very hard to find boxed. I had never seen one until this turned up on ebay!
[PS1] Playstation CD Mechanism
This seems to be an official Sony Playstation “CD Mechanism”. I have not seen one boxed, neither after nor before I bought this copy on tradera.se many years ago. If anybody got more details about this item, please let me know!
[PS1] Resident Evil Pad
Official “Resident Evil” pad from ASCII. Complete with box, pad, instruction booklet and registration card. The controller is special designed for use with the “Resident Evil” games.
Not really that rare, but I have noticed it becoming more expensive over the years. A must have for “Resident Evil” collectors!
