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.

    Picked it up on sale for $20 which was a fantastic price. Wasn’t worth the $100 in the first place when it came out. Sony dropped the ball with the game selection and was a missed opportunity, missing classics like Crash, Spyro and many others. But games like Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy 7 were good standouts for me.

    This is a fancy Raspberry Pi RetroArch kit. If you find a good deal and are not scared of some minor file dragging and dropping, get this.

    Overpriced, no AC adaptor, and a poor line up of games: 4-5 worth playing. Short cables--it's like they didn't pay attention with the Nintendo releases. Sony tried to jump on the bandwagon of tiny retro consoles but didn't try to make this worth the cost.

    The original $99.00 wasca complete joke, but a $40.00 it is a steal. Especially for autobleem purposes.
