Customers love the PlayStation Classic Console's affordable price and the inclusion of two controllers, finding it easy to use and a nostalgic trip down memory lane.

    The experience is nothing like the original PlayStation system. This system feels like quality but software wise its delayed in responsiveness.

    This item was pre-ordered way back in Sept 2018, it's January 2019 now and my item hasn't delivered yet. Would rather get from other sellers.

    Gaming on this console was not great, just OK. Pricing on it was too high. Good thing I returned it.

    I’m a PlayStation fan so I was hyped about getting it. Then I played it and was very disappointed on the overall game play.

    I preordered and decided to keep it. It was 100% not worth the original price. Now that it is $59.99 I believe it is still not worth it.

    Even for $20 it’s a ripoff. The frame rate on the games are horrendous. This is a very lazily produced product.
