The PlayStation was originally a concept to help the SNES be CD compatible. After the falling out between Sony and Nintendo, Sony decided to make it a stand-alone console rather than a Nintendo accessory. The first incarnation of the PlayStation console was revealed October 1991.

It was not released for retail until late 1994. Japan - December 3, 1994 United States - September 9, 1995 Europe - September 29, 1995 Australia - November 15, 1995

The 2000 release was for the PlayStation 2, not the PlayStation.
