The Issue

Sony just announced part of their celebration for PlayStation's 30th Anniversary, which is on 12/03/2024.

 

Part of the celebration, announced on 12/02/2024, includes new PlayStation 5 UI themes referencing every previous PlayStation generation from PS1-PS4. Additionally, the boot up of the PlayStation 5 can be customized to feature the original PlayStation boot up, with the nostalgic sound that we all love.

 

Obviously this feature is welcomed and adored by all who appreciate the greatness that PlayStation has brought into their homes the past 30 years. However, the only issue is that this has been advertised as a limited-time feature..

 

I believe I speak for most of us when I say that Sony should keep this permanent. This is a huge milestone for Sony and it only makes sense to let us bask in the nostalgia of PlayStation's history. If this doesn't affect console functionality, there seems to be no reason to remove this feature. We all love PlayStation and want to celebrate without limits. Many of us are busy and do not have time to appreciate it as much as we would like to.

 

Please consider signing this petition and hopefully Sony will take notice and consider leaving this feature on our consoles permanently. Thank you for time.

Nostalgia is a powerful thing. This brought back so much joy hidden away from my childhood I didn't realize I needed until hearing and seeing the PS1 boot up animations. I'm BEGGING you to continue being the best and give the us what we play video games for. Joy!

The sound of the original PlayStation cold boot kicking in transports me back to a time when life was simpler. Over the course of 30 years I've made friends that have become family, laughed, cried, mourned, and celebrated with these people. These aesthetics are history to use who reminisce on them fondly, who have played with one another, explored various worlds, stories, characters, and discovered a glimpse of ourself within them. I hope that you see these remarks, and just as you've thank us for these past 30 years, celebrate us with this small gesture of what sparked a life long hobby for us as we continually support you throughout the years.

When I Updated My PS5 and saw the original Sony Computer Entertainment logo and PlayStation 1 Sound, I was hit was such a wave of nostalgia I almost started crying, this is the best thing I've seen Sony do in commemoration of PS1's 30th anniversary, I've had my UI set to PS2 since, I want this to be a permanent feature, simply for the sounds, the boot up, and the unlocking of memories of games I've played across all generations of PlayStation, Please Sony, all us PlayStation loyalists want this to be a permanent feature.
