>Let's me clear. The chips COULD be mass produced again.
Doubtful, the fabrication facilities for tech like that likely do not exist anymore. Fabs have to be specifically designed for the nodes they are creating, you can't just produce a 500nm chip on modern 7nm fab. There are some old chips still being made for some legacy uses, but those are REALLY old chips that far predate the PS1 and have much larger nodes.
Tech to specifically produce the PS1's CPU and GPU likely does not exist anymore, just like how tech to produce new CRTs doesn't really exist anymore.

Yes there is when you would have to rebuild fabrication facilities using decades old designs. Also like >>11800682 said they would just emulate, vast majority of people who would potentially buy such a product would have not care or notice a difference. Provided they do a better job than the joke that was the PlayStation Classic.
