Customers are saying

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.

    Classic game console. Although it doesn’t have too many of the games I enjoyed on the system, it’s still a good console

    The console is small and very cool if you like arcade games. It's a lot of fun messing with it.

    Wasn’t worth the original $99.99 price when it was first released, but well worth the $19.99 I paid for it at Best Buy!

    The game list is pretty mediocre, and even then many of the games are PAL versions and will look weird to North American players. I bought this basically for Revelations: Persona and Final Fantasy VII--apparently these are popular for modding, but I can't speak to that.

    Wow! Wish it would have an option to add on games that are not on there. Maybe an expansion pack?

    This little PS1 has appeal. It's much more reliable than the original and well worth the money on sale. I bought two.

    Cute machine, with good games. However, the lack of power brick included was a bit of a headache, and it took me ages to get it going!

    I liked the PS mini. Not all of the games I would have hoped for but a pretty good selection. Reminds me of the old days of playing on the PS1 in the late 1990's.

    As it’s already been reviewed the graphics are extremely blurry. And the game play is a bit laggy. Regardless of that me and my brother played it. It was pretty fun to play the games we played as kids. It was nostalgic and I don’t regret buying it I only regret paying $100 for it. I bought it as a gift and I won’t be buying it for myself especially for another $100.

    Not the greatest selections and at only 20 games, this is not worth it compared to the NES Classic and SNES Classic. Disappointing, I hope Sony releases a better version of it or allows for a free download of additional games. Where's Crash, Spyro, PaRappa and so many others? Conspicuously absent

    I saw that Sony was coming out with their own classic console and knew that I would want it. But when the lineup of games available came out, it was a done deal. There were a couple of games on the console that I remember playing all the time when they came out, and I’m playing them quite a bit even now. This is a great console for those of us who grew up at the beginning of the 16bit gaming craze. I highly recommend this for those nostalgic for those original games.
