My Sony Playstation Launch Experience in 1995 - My Retro Life

In 1995, Dad and I rented the Japanese Sony Playstation months ahead of its US launch. Along with the Sega Saturn, the Playstation waged 32-Bit console war in my house! This video details that amazing day.

Life With Sony Playstation (My PS1 Launch Experience!) - My Retro Life

Your Dad is a retro gaming legend. His documentation is so important and he knew it. His commentary, footage, and passion shines through every frame. He had no idea how important his video camera was... or did he? RIP retro dad.

the coolest thing about this channel is that it feels like a planned collaboration between father and son across the gap of time

Your Dad was on the pulse of tech before most people were. He saw what was coming and had the means to document it. Your Dad is a legend. You are very fortunate to have grown up with such a guy.

This footage is so fantastic, nobody was really filming stuff like this back in the 90s.

Kids will never know the feeling of booting up a Playstation and seeing the incredible graphics of these early games. Seeing Crash Bandicoot, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, Final Fantasy 8, and Tekken 2 was mind-blowing at the time!

Damn, your old man was pretty ahead of his time, those family tapes are almost like modern 'review' VLOGs.

Bro your dad was a legend, super pleased you had this type of relationship with your dad. Great content

[SamytyKill]

You basically have your own "Netflix" for memories with your dad, thats such a precious thing! Words can't express how much I'd give for something even close to that.

Very uplifting content. :)

Your dad is awesome and a genius for capturing these moments.

[MikeyKrafty]

I love this dad, man. He's like a 90's version of myself, only I'm a tech/gamer dad in 2020. <3

[MyRetroLife]

Thanks for coming with me on this "My Retro Life" journey, guys! Y'all are seriously the best. More to come!

The real story of this entire Youtube Channel, is how great of a dad this man had.

[timothy]

Your dad was WAY ahead of his time. this kind of filming and commentary was unheard of back then.This is a treasure trove. How old was he here? early 40s? RIP Mr Dad

[fortheflips]

Having a dad with the ability to see the future that you’d want these memories so detailed and captured is amazing

[lanceruis]

This is honestly one of the most heart warming videos on 90’s gaming I’ve ever seen. You can truly feel the love and excitement in the room. Thanks for sharing this.

[CoolhandLukeSkywalkr]

Damn, this dude led a charmed childhood.

[easycake]

This dad was an absolute legend. Im sure not EVERY day was like this, but these moments ? Worth every second of living.

[javianjohnson]

The 90s looked like such a simpler time. SEGA, the first Playstation, damn what a time that seemed to be

[bernietoth]

Your dad would be proud of how your YouTube videos give his home videos second life. Well done sir. Dad taught you well

[antwilder]

To play it early then buy it early is mind blowing...your dad is a genius for basically vlogging this experience
