Can't you see how ridiculous you are by naming a produtc that is clearly not the original name given by Sony.
Its cringie to see people normally calling PS as PSX, when PSX is whole legit fancy version of the original PS2 officially named that way by Sony.
Now imagine your cringe fat ass in a Japan store asking for a PSX. Guess which video game the employee will bring to you ?
The first playstation is just Sony Playstation (PS). Why would anyone insert a X there ? There is no reason at all... pure nonsense.
I hope the first journalist to call PS as PSX after Sony oficially naming it as just Playstation (PS), is now burning in hell.
Now stop, please.

The original codename for the PlayStation in Japan was the PlayStation X, and those of us who were alive at the time of its release (not you two) called it the "PlayStation" and abbreviated it as "PSX"

>when PSX is whole legit fancy version of the The PS2
The PS2 DVR (PSX) was named explicitly in reference to the PSX codename of the original PlayStation console.

The original PlayStation was not referred to as the "PS1" until after the sequel system was released. Why would it have been? Fucking retarded zoomer shitposters.

A fucking zoomer gave me the same talk a while ago. He wasn't even born when people were calling it PSX to differentiate from the PSOne, so shut the fuck up and stop trying to mess with terms your elders invented. Plus, PSX was the codename for the first model.

Its never too late to stop being wrong.
Calling it as PSX after the product being officially named Playstation, is wrong and there is nothing you can do to change this fact. Also, there is no logical sense of the letter X: "What is it ? Playstation 10 ?" "Woah, PS2 announced... but why not PSX2 ?" 2003: wft, Japan got a new PSX ! What ?! a new PSX ? We already have a "PSX" for almost decade!"
See how dumb it sounds to call something in the wrong way?
Nowadays equivalent would be calling Xbox Series X as Scarlett.

Why do you people care so much? Growing up some people called it PlayStation, some said PSX. When the PS2 came out a lot of us just called it the PS1 so it wasn't confusing. PSX is fine, nobody really cares.

This is the PsOne. The PSX was what everyone called the PlayStation until then. Pee-es-ex.

The PSX moniker was extremely widespread in the western market though and defacto what everybody and their grandmother abbreviated Playstation to even if it made no sense because there wasn't an X to be found in the actual name. I remember wondering about that as a kid. So, I can live with PS (which by the way was also in use just not as much as PSX) but PS1 really irks me because it's rewriting history.
