The PlayStation Classic will be about 45% smaller than the original PlayStation.

Gamers on Twitter are already speculating on the rest of the lineup.

Some fans also noted that the controllers included in the PlayStation Classic are also original, i.e. not Dualshock controllers with analogue sticks.

The announcement of PlayStation's nostalgia-stoking launch comes a year after Nintendo released a miniature version of its Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), called the "Classic Edition."

The dinky PlayStation will be available for purchase for $99.99, or £89.99 in the UK, on 3 December.
