The PSIO is an upcoming device which will let you load PlayStation 1 games directly from an SD card. Having been quiet for quite some time, the team behind PSIO have just revealed their hardware prototype.
The PSIO will boot games from a menu driven operating system and will eliminate the need for game discs altogether.
While their latest update is nothing more than a photograph of the PSIO chipboard (it connects to the PlayStation 1’s parallel port), it holds great promise for the 32-bit system’s future – making it a must have tool for homebrewers, developers and most importantly, gamers.
Unfortunately there is no video footage showing how the prototype device works yet.
