Playstation 1 PCSXR The playstation 1 emulator that I found available on most Debian based Linux repository is pcsxr. Before installation, it is best practice to update and upgrade your system and sometimes you need to enable 32 bit packages:

The top ones that enjoyed and available on the package manager are Playstation 1 and Playstation 2 emulators where you only need one command line to install or find the package if you are using a GUI package manager like synaptics. If you use the graphical user interface (GUI), then that is fine, but if you use the terminal, then that is better, and that is enough knowledge to enjoy some classical games. Today, one of the first things taught to new Debian bases Linux users are using the package manager to download install softwares. Yes, there maybe other and better emulators downloadable on the Internet but for now I'll be focusing on the ones available by default in the repository of package manager and leave a comment if you know more.

While in Linux, especially the old ones, you probably have to find the missing libraries yourself and if that is not enough, you need to do the file configurations yourself. The Windows games either free to play or premium ones if you have a lot of money are easy to install. A gamer who moved to Linux operating system (OS) up to today may find that video games are lacking compared to Windows.
