The original Japanese launch model (SCPH-1000), released on 3 December 1994, was the only model to feature an S-Video port.

Why are PS1 graphics shaky?

PS1 graphics wobble due to hardware limitations: the console used integer math, not precise floating-point numbers, causing vertices (corners of polygons) to snap to whole pixels instead of moving smoothly, creating a "vertex snapping" or "wobble" effect, compounded by issues with affine texture mapping (incorrect perspective) and a lack of a Z-buffer, leading to flickering polygons.

Was PS1 64 bit?

No, the original PlayStation (PS1) was a 32-bit console, not 64-bit; its main competitor, the Nintendo 64 (N64), was the one marketed as a 64-bit system, though both used 32-bit processors for core functions. While the N64 had a technically more powerful 64-bit CPU, the PS1's use of CD-ROMs allowed for larger game data (FMVs, music), and its efficient 32-bit architecture, coupled with its memory bus, often made it seem more capable in overall game design despite its bit-depth.
