Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Several sports, fighting, and party games allow between three and eight players to play at once, but the PlayStation and new PS One have only two controller ports. If you want to turn your PlayStation into a party, you need the PS One Multitap. Simply plug this accessory into one of your controller ports, and then plug up to four controllers and memory cards into the Multitap's built-in ports. Two Multitaps raise your capacity to eight controllers and memory cards. Also, the Multitap's extra capacity allows you to keep your specialty controllers--such as racing wheels, fishing controllers, and light guns--connected and ready to play.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you have a few friends..., April 25, 2002

If you've got more than one friend that would like to play games with you--and if you have the right games--then this is a tremendous accessory.

Here's a short list of games that support the multitap to get you started:
NBA Live (any year)
most any soccer game (like the FIFA series)
Poy Poy (4 players hitting each other with rocks and trees!)
Bomberman World
Need For Speed 5
Circuit Breakers
Hot Shots Golf 2 & 3
Gauntlet: Dark Legacy
Running Wild

With two multitaps plus NBA Live and 8 controllers you can have 8 people playing basketball together!! That can be very fun with the right people. You can build dream teams with everyone playing as their favorite player for a pretty fun battle.

Note: You use this for PlayStation/PSOne games whether playing them on the PlayStation/PSOne or PlayStation 2. I'm told it doesn't, however, work with PlayStation 2 games.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great fun for the whole family, June 20, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: PlayStation Multitap Adaptor (Electronics)

Multitap lets you play with up to 3 people other than yourself. There is only two problems. 1. It does not include any controllers. 2. There are not many games that let you play with more than 2 people. ( The only games I know is Frogger, and Crash Team Racing.) I think you should buy this after you have gotten at least 4 games that let you use Multitap.

I think this is a great addition to any Playstation. It is fun, but you do need certain controllers to use. I still can't figure out how to use the 4 extra memory card slots but overall, I'd give it 4 stars.
