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. However, many are disappointed with the limited game selection and some have noted issues with the emulation quality. The compact size is also a frequently praised feature.

    Fun Retro System

    This a great little portable retro game system. You can also buy supplemental memory sticks with additional games. Graphics quality is OK but not great and of course there is no documentation for the games. Still its fun to play Sypro or Tomb Raider.

    You can mod this with an approved usb flash drive and load thousands of games, including more playstation games. I feel bad for people that paid the original full price for it. For $20 it’s worth it.

    At $100 it was way overpriced so I waited and got this for $25 after all the price drops. At that price it was worth the nastalgia factor. Controllers aren't great, short cords. The USB power cord wasn't a big deal to me not having the adapter block but after attempting to power thru my TV USB ports I realized the power output wasn't enough. Wouldn't power on at all. One block I used would power up but then turn off after 10 minutes. Definitely pay attention to power output of the wall block u use. Needs to be 1000mah

    Only Worth It For Shelf Appeal

    Sony absolutely rushed this thing out for last Christmas and the continued price drops are indicative of the mediocre experience it delivers. Hardware-wise it’s as good as any microconsole, but a pretty lame library without even putting the proper North American ROMs on it, this thing is best used for looking at the box on your shelf and tinkering with the unit so you can get some games you actually wanna play on it.

    Not worth 99.99 but definitely worth it after the price drop to 59.99. Games run smoothly, I feel most people were complaining about it because they didnt want to be "that guy" who liked it. Most people who returned theirs never even opened the box to try it out.

    It's a great little system with 20 games not all of the games are for everyone but with a YouTube search and a flash drive it's awesome. A bargain at the sale price at the time I purchased of $20.

    OK Trip Down Memory Lane

    I know these retro consoles are striving for "authenticity", but I am SICK of controllers with 3' wires!!! I'd prefer my dose of nostalgia sitting comfortably on my couch, not 2 feet from my 70 inch TV!!

    Lots of bad press...

    ...and sadly it’s all true. Terrible frame rate for many games thanks to PAL 50hz versions, no filters or other features to improve PQ on modern TVs, and the selection of games is mediocre at best. Build quality seems decent and the holding the controllers is a great blast to the past, though.

    Game library lacking. Controller cords short. Games aged pretty poorly. Nice nostalgic design though.

    Purchased this item when it was on sale for 19.99$. It was a fair price for a not so great system. Doesn't have a great selection of games, but it looks good, plays good, and it is a PlayStation.

    I know all the bad reviews but I personally like it. It brings back memories for me and I can show my kids some of my favorites that this has on it. For the price it's a good buy and great for collectors.

    This system has some solid titles, but there are so many that they should've included as well. Many of the games are difficult to control.

    This blast from the past is lackluster at best. It is good to relive but most of the games are not what should have been in this system.
