Sony is getting in on the craze for retro technology by launching a mini version of its original PlayStation.

The PlayStation Classic is around 45% smaller than the 1994 games console, and ditches the disc drive in favour of 20 pre-installed games. The new system also features high-definition HDMI video output - which means it is compatible with newer TVs.
