Well, nevermind, as you can now have the next best thing. Sony has today released the Anniversary Edition DualShock 4 controller (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/15/20th-anniversary-ps4-controller-headset-bring-back-the-og-color/) in the UK (and the rest of Europe), with its retro gray colour scheme and home button sporting the original PlayStation logo. Unfortunately, this model's lacking the engraved touchpad (http://www.engadget.com/gallery/sony-playstation-4-20th-anniversary-edition/#!slide=3183885%7Cfullscreen) found on those shipped with the limited edition console, but it's close enough. The nostalgic pad can now be found at stores including GAME (http://www.game.co.uk/en/dualshock-4-limited-20th-anniversary-edition-58704?categoryIdentifier=737266&catGroupId=) and Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/DualShock-Wireless-Controller-20th-Anniversary/dp/B013C7L1QE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1442397546&sr=8-2&keywords=dualshock+4) for £50, which is probably more than you'd spend picking up an OG PS1 and a copy of Crash Team Racing on eBay -- not that we should be telling you which is the better purchase, of course.
