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.

    This is a great system if you waited for the price to drop. It was not worth the MSRP, but at the lower price it's a steal.

    This console brings back memories of my younger days. The graphics are nothing to brag about and honestly don’t play all the games. But the ones I do, are of good quality.

    Paid $20 bucks so I guess it's worth it, comes with the told persona game so that's a deal. I still have not yet took it out the box but it makes a great display.

    This arrived promptly from Best Buy, with plenty of time until Christmas. It had everything in the box that I was expecting. My husband loves playing the old games on it.

    Got on sale, but after some tinkering it turned out to be a great little system. Playstation is a solid block in the gaming foundation.
