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.

    They wanted way too much for this at launch. Finally hit my price point at 20.

    Great mini console. I purchased this console to relive my youth and to play Final Fantasy 7 again. Graphics are the same as the original. I wish they had more games.

    My son loves classic games as much as the new releases. Even better, it still worked when our Internet was out. Sometimes simple is awesome!

    Great retro console, just use a 8bitdo blue tooth adapter and you can use a PS4 or PS3 controller and now you have a dual shock dual stick controller to play resident evil YESSSSSSS

    Although priced higher than similar Nintendo products, this was a great addition to my video game collection. The game list is outstanding!

    I got this for $20, to be frank it's great for that price and loaded with some old classic games, you will remember some childhood memories playing with your kids or friends.

    I originally had the PS Classic pre-ordered, and then canceled upon hearing the bad reviews. However, I was able to buy it when they cut the price considerably, mainly as a collection piece of sorts. I don't know if I will play it much, but as a long Playstation fan, this little console brings back many fantastic memories.

    Yea the product itself isn't that good but I didn't buy it for that. I got it to hack and add my own games along with some arcade classics. That alone is well worth the money.

    When I first heard about it coming out I was pretty excited, then now owning it, I couldn't be more excited. I'm glad I bought it so I can relive my childhood memories with the games.
