We imagined what it would be like to have to continually put the pad down while mapping a game, or playing while lying on the floor, and many other cases. After that we had to decide on the weight of the buttons and the pad itself. We adjusted the weights one gram at a time and eventually we found the correct balance. We probably spent as much time on the joypad's development as we did on the body of the machine. [4] Boyer, Crispin (March 1998).

On April 2, 1996 in Japan, Sony released a revised version of the PlayStation controller (model SCPH-1080), which is 10% larger than the launch model and features a longer cord with a ferrite bead. [1] This model was bundled with all subsequent PlayStation consoles, including the North American and European launch models (which were already introduced a year prior in September 1995). Sony released a series of peripherals to add extra layers of functionality to the PlayStation. Such peripherals include memory cards, [173] the PlayStation Mouse, [174] [175] the PlayStation Link Cable, [173] the Multiplayer Adapter (a four-player multitap), [173] the Memory Drive (a disk drive for 3.5-inch floppy disks), [176] the GunCon (a light gun), and the Glasstron (a monoscopic head-mounted display).

[40] Nintendo's contract-breaking was met with consternation in the Japanese business community, [19] as they had broken an "unwritten law" of native companies not turning against each other in favour of foreign ones. [28] Sony's American branch considered allying with Sega to produce a CD-ROM-based machine called the Sega Multimedia Entertainment System, but their board of directors in Tokyo vetoed the idea when American CEO Tom Kalinske presented them the proposal. Kalinske recalled them saying: "That's a stupid idea, Sony doesn't know how to make hardware. They don't know how to make software either. Why would we want to do this?" [41] Sony halted their research, but decided to develop what it had developed with Nintendo and Sega into a console based on the SNES. [41]
