The Nat Yaroze program is the one that made console-development possible and available to aspiring coders—the non-professionals. Now, after 12 years, Sony is said to be pulling the Yaroze PSOne Development Program from the shelves.

Through this, subscribers were able to access an online community, development software and the rare opportunity to access the black Playstation One console, which allows developers to run their own codes in the system.

However, a Sony representative assured its subscribers that there’s still a chance they will be able to hold memoirs of their beloved Yaroze PSOne Development Program. We plan to make a copy of the site available for our original members,” said SCEE’s Paul Holman. He also said that a get-together will be held for the members of the development community.

The Yaroze PSOne will be cancelled in July but Sony refused to specify the exact date of the pullout.
