@FlavioBello11 I've done exactly this with a 1st gen PSX. Check out my website in my signature for details on how I got my switch working in the PSXPi section.

I've done a pi project with the psone. 2 of the pins on one the short sides is true on and off. Use a multi meter to determine which ones.
Good luck with your project.

Here's an almost final build of my psone build. Maybe I'll make a video of the final build

WOW, very cool, so you use a board for torn it on and off? there's a name? how can i find one?

[lostless]

I made that board. It's using project perf board which has solderable pads on the bottom which I soldred the original switch to. The led is also soldered to that board with the wires running out from the bottom. I got a Mausberry circuit to control the power which goes to the switch and led.

Nice, I'm trying to make one on the basis of a pi zero with integrated screen, I only have the speakers to install.
