The story of PS1 emulation in the late 90s is interesting - Steve Jobs actually announced an official Mac PS1 emulator on stage at MacWorld. Naturally, Sony weren't happy. Then there was Bleem, a commercial PS1 emulator for PC and Bleemcast, which could run PS1 games on the Dreamcast. Absurd.
I knew about Bleem from ads in the magazines I was subscribed to as a teen but I didn't know that about Jobs, Mac, and PS1 emulation, that's wild!
Here's a video about the story of Connectix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcD420hP3YM
