    Sony should have invested a little more time in developing this unit before releasing for purchase. I wish it had more games. But the games it did come with are still fun to play. Keep trying, Sony!

    At under $30, it was worth it for "Revelations: Persona" alone (since just the DISC for that game is worth over $150). At its bare bones state, it's a pretty fun PSone emulation box. With some VERY BASIC tech knowledge and a couple of additional accessory purchases, you can really open this thing up with a large suite of options and settings.

    Sony got greedy trying to emulate Nintendo with their re-release of their classic console as a miniature throwback to glorious days of entertainment. For the release price of $99, it was a terrible deal. But for $25 bones, this is a worthy purchase to add to my collection.

    Easy set up, the game list very limited. The preloaded games weren't ones I was really into. For those who didnt get a chance to own a psone or play these games, it could be a fun item to have.

    I was so excited about this, but Sony mailed it in. Poor emulations of many of the games, slow responsiveness of the controllers - almost like playing an online game with a bad connection.

    Nice to have whole classic console nearly at price of just wireless controller. Good pre-loaded games and you can hack it to play many other games. Anything under $40 is good deal for this :)

    The PlayStation Classic is fun...for about two hours. After the nostalgia wore off I was constantly reminded how much better today’s modern systems are. Still it was a good buy for only $20.

    Got it when it was on sale for $20. Very worth it at that price point. Game selection is not good, compared to other retro consoles. You need to make sure it's plugged into at least a 10w (5v@2A) USB port, otherwise it won't power on.

    While it wasn't perfect, it isn't bad. Good selection of games to choose from and easy to use. Could have put a little more time into the software as well as include dual-shock controllers.

    I only wanted this for 8 games.Almost half the line up is the PAL version instead of the NTSC version for North America. This means that there will be a NOTICEABLE input lag on almost half the games.

    While it was nice to visit the past there are very few games that I really enjoyed. It was fun for a minute but the novelty wore off quickly.
