There has been a significant increase in fake PlayStation 1 discs being sold on AliExpress, a well-known online marketplace.

90% of everything on AliExpress is counterfeit.
Hmm…if the price of retro games lowers, I’ll be more likely to get good deals…
But I’ll be in a worse position if I ever need to sell parts of my existing collection…
Wouldn’t these not work on an unmodified PlayStation without an exploit? The system has copy protection that’s specifically meant to prevent bootlegs from running. Did they figure something out to bypass that like on the Dreamcast that I don’t know about?
Do these actually work on unmolded consoles?
I imagine if the legacy silicon hardware is straight from the factory the shape of the plastic doesn’t really matter too much
In all seriousness, afaik not unless they can replicate the wobble groove pressed into the discs, which is possible if they can press their own discs in bulk, but probably more expensive than it’s worth unless they are selling a ton of these
