    For the right price this is an excellent buy. Some of Playstation's best games are here, like Final Fantasy VII, Tekken 3 and Metal Gear Solid.

    Waited for that price drop because original price was a definite no go. Once you enhance it, it becomes a pretty darn nifty machine.

    It looks like a PlayStation just mini. If you like small things buy this but the controllers are normal sized.

    Man I love this set up, it brought back so many great memories with my brothers, we would stay up all night claiming who got next. With the pre-installed games they did the trick to send you back to the 90’s but if you get the Tru Blue mini game stick that has over 101 games and the fight pack which has 58 games you are talking about nostalgia. I could hear my mom tell us to “turn that game off and go to bed y’all got school in the morning”.

    Low Quality Retro Console

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    this retro console is absolute trash compared to the ones Nintendo released. No analog, sub-par selection of games, and PAL versions of games was a terrible idea. The only reason I bought this and did not rate it 1 star is the fact it can be modified to play an PS1 game.

    Only thing stopping 5 stars is sony not including a usb outlet option with the console. Love the game list!

    Mediocre console

    I preordered the PlayStation classic, but was disappointed with the reception it received. The game selection is lackluster and for the full price of $99.99 the console did not even come packaged with an AC adapter. I promptly returned the product; however, I would consider rebuying if the price dropped dramatically to justify the purchase.
