    This is an awesome way to get the kids to see how the PS1 games were like and the inclusion of the greatest hits is a great way to show this current generation.

    Bought this for my brother for Christmas as we played old PlayStation games growing up. He absolutely loved it and how could he not when it has Twisted Metal and Metal Gear Solid!

    It’s fun to retro play. Yeah I know people complain about the games and rates but I haven’t had problems and it’s fun. Simple as that.

    I like having it as decoration more than a system. 2D games look great! 3D games are better in your memories.

    Only 20 games but not bad - the emulation is off a bit and not as good as Nintendo's minis are! worth $40 though!

    Not really what I was expecting, games in console are not that great or interesting for that price anyway and the only games I liked I already own, so back to the store it went. There are so many other great games that this console could of had to make it more interesting or a must have as it stands its not worth it.

    Comes pre loaded with some of the most classic PS1 games. Controllers are original size and feel. Make sure to have an outlet adapter as the system does not come with one.

    Ever since I was a kid, the Playstation was one of my favorite game systems. Final Fantasy games have always a large draw. In fact, the one included was its selling point for me.

    Seems great so far! Playing alot of FF7! I played the Twisted Metal and it was a trip down memory lane. I was surprised how unfriendly driving in those old school games where.
