Using discs meant that developers had much higher storage capacity than with cartridges, allowing for the inclusion of movies (often called FMVs) and higher-quality music. They were also much less expensive to manufacture, making it less of a risk to make a small run of games, bolstering the number of more experimental and niche releases on the system.

Coins are very common in Astro’s Playroom, and are used as currency. Specifically, they’re used in the PlayStation Labo area to be spent in the Gatcha minigame. Pre-ordering the digital edition comes with the above as well as Astro Bot’s digital artbook and soundtrack.

The original PlayStation, also known as the PlayStation 1, released in 1994 in Japan and 1995 for the rest of the world.

Once you finish all the levels at least once you’ll unlock a series of “speed run” levels that are variants off of the game’s main levels. I appreciated these because they weren’t just the same exact levels with a timer added, but instead offered totally new paths and obstacles through a stage that was merely themed after the existing level. You’ll recognize backgrounds and a few elements, but they may as well be new levels.
