The mouse was released in Japan on December 3, 1994, the launch date of the PlayStation.

[1] The mouse itself is a simple two-button ball mouse that plugs directly into the PlayStation controller port without adapters or conversions and is a fully supported Sony accessory.

It was packaged along with a mouse mat bearing the PlayStation logo.

In later years, first-person shooters also make use of the peripheral to aim the player's view in the same manner as similar games on the PC.

[2] A special Konami-branded edition of the mouse was released alongside the Japanese exclusive title Tokimeki Memorial: Forever With You.
