These kind of videos are weirdly nostalgic to me.

It's a "What if" video from 2007 (Does Wii U play Wii games)

[@HunterAtheist]

PS1 games had their music files in a format that was playable on most cd players. You could listen to the soundtrack of a game through this method. I think thats what the console was trying to do but it got hung up. Also, these videos bring me back. Lol i remember you stuffing all kinds of stuff into old consoles back in the day.

[@blast_processing6577]

The majority of PS1 games didn't have music in redbook audio -- the format used by audio CD players. Most PS1 games had music in the .seq format, which was similar to a MIDI file paired with a custom soundfont, although music rips of this format typically use the .psf container.

[@AnubisRacing]

​​@@blast_processing6577there were actually two different forms of audio used for PlayStation games at the time and it was up to the developer which they chose to go with. They were: Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA): Some games included audio tracks in the standard CD audio format, which could be played on any regular CD player. These tracks were often the game’s soundtrack or additional audio content. Sequenced Music (SEQ): Other games used sequenced music, where the music data was stored in .SEQ files, similar to MIDI files. The instrument samples were stored separately in .VAG files, and the PlayStation’s sound processor would play these sequences in real-time. Anything that used CDDA could be played in a CD player and CDDA was essentially the same thing as Red Book format. It should also be noted that the Red Book standard was developed by Sony and Philips in the 1980s... So if anyone knows how it works I'm pretty sure it's them lol

[@SilverXTikal]

When my parents divorced in 1999 when I was 4 my Dad left all his games behind. I spent a few years throwing all the games in CD players thinking magically somehow I can play something that would bring my dad back. Sad af. But I discovered so many different kinds of music that I didn’t hear played everywhere I went. I loved finding the SEGA games with different warning tracks saying specifically not to play the games in a normal CD player. I used to listen to SEGA Saturn cutscenes and letting my brain create the visuals since I never even seen the games. Any of them tbh. It created my ADHD no doubt. It felt like treasure hunting

[@AlexosaurusRex]

The reason the X Box Series X takes in the Game Cube mini DVD and ejects it is because it can play CDs, while the PS5 cannot play CDs. CD Players need to have comparability with 3" discs because in the 90s there were CDsingles that were released as 3" discs. I am willing to bet if you put in a 3" music CD that it would play on the Series X.

[@jrob0021]

The only caveat to this is that the GameCube disc didn’t actually mount into the series x mechanism. I’ll have to get a 3” music cd and try it out though

[@TDM_]

To be honest it makes sense, game discs have been useless since the ps4 as you are installing the whole game once you put it in. So basically the game just recognizes you have a copy of the game physically instead of owning the game on your ps/xbox account

[@kritikalgamer]

You clearly have no clue what you're talking about. Install is for those day 1 updates. Copying is copying some data from disc to hard drive & not every PS4 or PS5 game does this.

[@John-jm4nv]

U can not play without them updates soo its still L ​@gamerrant

[@kritikalgamer]

@John-jm4nv All you did was tell people you have no clue what you're saying/typing. It's called the vanilla version of a game that you can play without those day one updates (offline games) just fine.

[@thetcgkollector3421]

@@John-jm4nv Dude they have a website called 'Does It Play' and it literally tells you video games you can play offline and without updates. But this rumor that the discs or cartridge doesn't have the game on it is a bold face lie.

[@chrisjopek6905]

Not really some people still believe strongly on disc copy's and I do both digital and physical copy's of the games if I can get a game on sale I would rather by it on sale physical or digitally

[@scarletlightning869]

Been watching channels like yours for years, always wanted to pick up some consoles to repair myself. Finally bit the bullet, picked up 2 xbox 360 slims off ebay for only 15 bucks each. 1st one already had a game in it Far Cry 3. Were both easy fixes and each sold for 160 bucks, minus supplies to get started i made about 180 dollars profit!

[@nikita0061]

2:50 FUNFACT: Its because if you put ps1 games inside a mp3-player you would hear all the soundtracks of the game. This is due to the format in which PSX games are written on CD!

[@jl.4563]

The og playstation disc was trying to play the music files off of it

[@Rockhead84]

That was some fun but scary experiments. I legit didnt think that GameCube game was coming back out!

[@jrob0021]

a lot of times it doesn't lol, I got lucky this time

[@NyhiemButlerYT]

This brings back the memories of nostalgia when put foreign disc in the consoles

[@StolenJoker84]

I find it interesting that for some disks the system will tell you it’s incompatible, but other disks, it just tries to read them.

[@thelitmanftw]

You actually can play ps2, ps1, gamecube, wii, etc games through dev mode emulation

[@fenrir5741]

Yeah but Microsoft cracked down on that as soon they found out the people using their license weren't making games but were playing retroarch

[@newjackgaming88]

@@fenrir5741u can still do it in dev mode nothing gonna change about that been doing dev mode for 3 years now ! its the safe way to go they went after retail they will never take dev mode away

[@lilskrrby]

everything works fine

[@4-earedfoxfoxifyre]

@@fenrir5741 Think you got it backwards. I use an Xbox and Xbox Dev Mode. I play DS games on Retroarch and PS2 games on XBSX2. They cracked down on the public store having emulators because of monetization issues with people emulating pirated copies for free, the Dev Mode emulators are still supported, and even regarded as the "legal" solution. It costs 20 bucks, and a bit of technical skill. Not much, but it's there.

PS1 contains music files on the disc playable on any disc drive. That's why it tried to open the media player.

Love the video bro keep up the great work and I remember the good old days when you made those videos of what happens if you put a foreign disc in a PS4 etc etc. Cuz I remember when I was a kid I had a wii where I was wondering what happens if I put a DVD in my wii and some reason it the disc channel showed some error message saying can't read disc and right there it answered my question. I remember being a little smart boy enjoying these fascinating things.

[@andrewsein7490]

Man I bought Condemned 1 and 2 not knowing part 2 isn’t compatible for the Series X. What a bummer. If we’re able to play the first game, the 2nd one should’ve been playable as well to complete the story.

Idea: Take the disk drive from an Xbox and put it in a PS4/PS5 and see if you can run Xbox games

[@CraftMotion]

Did he just say Austria to Australia?😂

[@bryancook6345]

If that was possible then nobody would need the PS5 and Sony wouldn’t make money if everyone can play on the Xbox

[@jsmith3065]

Not really related but i found out the other days you can use a nintendo switch controler with ps3

[@serenabliss_]

Since you can unplug the DVD drive from the console while the game is already running and it works normal Couldn't you modify a Xbox drive that tells the Xbox that you own the game without putting the disc in?

[@Cordialsun29]

I wonder if could re write games to play on different consoles

[@brunorodrigues2060]

Dvd and blue Ray works with series x, had no problems with it.

[@mrwang420]

I wonder what would happen if you replaced the xbox hard drive with the playstation 4/5's harddrive and vice versa. Since the hardware is pretty much the same. Would be hilarious if it actually worked. And legit turn an xbox into a playstation and a playstation into an xbox. I bet some hacker/modder could figure out how to get it running.

[@kacywatson6314]

When you realise that you can do this to make pirate copies of the game by buying a real copy of the game and then taking the disk drive out of the consult while it’s running on the console and then putting it into another console or a PC to burn the game

[@sliteovmind7930]

One other media type it wont play... 3D Blu Rays. It is not capable of playing 3D movies.

Now to think, all those Nintendo games, you could play them on the Xbox Series X... and even the PS2 and before. Emulation.... and you can still do it... You used to be able to do it on Retail mode (Thanks Nintendo for screwing it up) but, now you can only do it via Dev mode ($20 to get and side load RetroArch)
