    So the included games are only "ok". The hardware is very capable and the controllers are great. Got mine for $25 so it was a no-brainer. Super easy to mod.

    Wow. This is Awful

    Seriously. Awful. The selection of games is beyond weak, the emulation is questionable, and the idea that Sony thought they could sucker fans into paying $100 for this is just offensive. Even at the $20 I paid, it was overpriced. The PSOne deserved so much better than this thing.

    I had a great time playing all the classic games And the council was set at a very fair price for $100

    I only bought this because it was $20. I already emulate all these games if I need to, so it is untouched in box for nostalgia.

    Great little console. Works off micro-usb power supply. Games are good, but I wish it had gran turismo, tomb raider and crash bandicoot. Controls are kind of short, but the nostalgia factor makes up for it

    Great console, has tons of potential and has a fairly decent list of games installed on it. Also is extremely light and easy to place on a tv stand.

    Got this on sale for 20--definitely worth it for that price, but I wouldn't pay 50 for it. Sony took some shortcuts to release it, google for more info.

    Got this on preorder the day it became available. Terrible decision on my part. The list of games was awful and i have spent more time waiting for someone to make an easy hack for this so i can play crash, final fantasy vii and tony hawk. Mine is still new in the box and i hate myself for spending the $100 on it when it is now discounted for $60.

    Great little portable system

    I don’t why there are so much negativity on this console. As a long Time PlayStation fan I had to try it for my self. I did a 180 on my view. It’s a great little device. Very portable for vacation trips. Unless you’re a professional gamer, as I’m a casual gamer, I hardly notice any of the negatives mentioned by the other gamers. Love the size of the controllers but wish the cords were a bit longer. One game made this purchase worth it for me; Metal Gear! All else is added bonus to me. Anyway, with the option to mod, I think it’s well worth it to me.

    This console will take you back to a time when gaming was so simple. System is very compact and all the games are good!

    Sony was late to the game and dropped the ball...

    This had so much potential for greatness, I was so excited about it I pre-ordered before the complete game list was announced. Sadly, the games they chose were just "ok", and they left out a lot of great titles that should of been there (Grand Turismo, Tony Hawk pro skater 2, just to name a few). Good news though, the hacker community came through, and you can now add games with a USB drive, so it has turned out to be a good purchase.

    Console works fine but really lacking key games and an easy ability to expand to other classics.

    Was a great idea but poor execution. The preloaded lineup of games was not much to be excited about.

    It honestly could have been a lot better of a console if Sony put effort time and effort into it.

    Really gives a nostalgic feeling. Could have used a few better games and a few were not needed. But still cool.
