You ever see a "blue" playstation debug?

If you do a search using the words "playstation debug" on eBay, this one shows up.



Debugging units are pretty cool. I've been looking for a 'teal' one for sometime now. I already have a US blue one like this. A cool thing with these blue units was that it had an external power supply. (Anyone remember the original psxs' overheating?)

Basically it's just like a 'legally chipped' psx. It has no region coding so it'll boot up domestic, imports, and gold beta discs.

Is that one of the Yaroze PSXs which you can use for programming?

No... those were black. These debug units were used more for game developing. They had more RAM on them for programers to use when making games.

Not sure what the going price is for these guys. When I purchased mine I think I paid $350 for it. These days if anyone is buying one, they're more than likely buying it as a collectable (since it only plays the old psx games).

I'd say they're still probably worth at least $200-250.
