    This game console is perfect IF you grew up playing these games. Only complaint was the lack of an actual power cord adapter that plugged into the wall, but it works with any usb to ac block.

    This console had some great games but some questionable choices while certain games were left off...nowhere near the NES or SNES Classics

    As is, this is not recommended. But if you have some modding skills, this machine becomes something else.

    The emulations are not well done and the selection of games are unimpressive with the exception being final fantasy 7.

    I bought this early when it came out. Then is started going down in price. And down. And down. I would assume it was for the reasons I didn't use it much. Poor graphics. Questionable game selection. Obscenely short cables to the console itself. On the other hand, when it went to a basic clearance price, I bought another to give to my neighbor's son for his birthday. I hope he does not grow up and seek revenge...

    The system does bring me back to the good old times. I do wish that the game selection was a little better

    Been a PlayStation fan since the PlayStation 1 came out so this was a must but the PlayStation classic leaves a lot to be desired.

    It has most games that first came out for the PlayStation. If you’re a gamer, the quality is horrible compared to the games now, but still very fun. I really wish tony hawk game was included.

    Picked this up for $20 and was the best investment I could have made recently. Kids love it and I do as well, brought me back to my pre teen years when the PlayStation was originally released.

    Some great classic games are included in the system, but there are also a few games that I wouldn't exactly call "classic". Odd choice by Sony to include 50hz versions of some of the games. Overall, still worth it to me at the discounted price I paid.

    While I didnt think I would be excited about this at first, then upon reading up on what it can do, I couldn't wait to get it! Very nostalgic. Could have used some analog controllers though

    I was really looking forward in getting this mini. I have sega genesis, snes, and nes mini. Enjoyed all three. So I was expecting that I would get same value with playstation mini. Playstation mini has bad selection games, it does not have enough, and for some reason the games don't look good on this mini. The graphics look bad. Sony wasted an opportunity to make a good mini.

    At first, many people did not like the system, but if you are a true sony fan, This is a must-have for your collection as a display. Worth every dollar I spend.
