Cooling Station Nuby makes up for  PlayStation's heating problem with its Cooling System. September 29, 1998 18:00 Amazingly enough, the most successful 32-bit system still has a problem that it seems even Sony can't solve. Or doesn't want to…or something. Nuby believes it has the answer. IGNPSX agrees. The Cooling System is Nuby's latest brainchild – a footpad that sits right under the PSX with a fan that points up into its underbelly. The fan sucks cool air from the PlayStation and simultaneously prevents consumers from putting the PlayStation on rug or soft surfaces, which could keep a good consistent source of air from entering the PlayStation. Newer PlayStations may or may not have this kind of problem, but they shouldn't according to Sony. These newer units are built with better ventilation and a smarter, more economical architecture. But you sure wouldn't want to find out the hard way, like in the 20th hour of an RPG at the final boss, for instance. Released into retail stores in mid-September at a MSRP of $29.99, the Cooling Station prevents the PlayStation from heating up past 30 degrees, a critical point for the PSX. The system is simple. It sucks cool air away from the PSX's components. That's it. It has a separate source for electricity than the PSX, so all you will need is a spare outlet, and it switches on and off by one level at the rear. The Cooling System is lightweight and comes in the same light gray as the PlayStation, and is built with one little drawer at the front that fits about 10 Memory Cards. It's unfortunate that the PlayStation would require such a device, but the Cooling System is not the first of its kind, and it works well for those who play excessively long hours at a time (i.e. all of us). It's just too bad Sony didn't take care of this on its own and that we, the customers, have to pay for it. But if you continue to have problems with overheating, this solution does work, it's not terribly expensive, and comes recommended. In November '98, Nuby will release a new system, Cool Rhythm, a cooling device including a stereo amplifier and speakers, at a MSRP of $39.99. Douglass Perry |
