Most of the original PlayStation games have a difficult time holding up in 2018. The list of included titles feels a bit lacking and we wish Sony included a DualShock controller instead of the analog-less originals. At $100

This replica looks excellent, The old controller still feels good, A mixed but interesting games list
Emulation mixes NTSC and PAL, Lacks options and features
A smart-looking mini replica PlayStation console that is let down by some poor emulation choices and a lack of features. The games list is actually a really interesting mix of classics, curiosities and rarities (but it's missing some fan-favourites). The...
Looks good on a shelf, A few gems in the game lineup
Mostly dull selection of games, No analog sticks on controllers, Missing USB AC Adapter, High price point for what you get
No. Don't buy the PlayStation Classic if you're looking for an ode to an incredible era of games because you will be sorely disappointed. It's a fun collectible, but nothing more...

Great hardware, Restore points, Fantastic Controller
Odd selection of games, No power block included, Limited display options
The PlayStation Classic had the potential to be something truly incredible; given the vast library of amazing titles on Sony's first console, it was fair to expect a stunning product - and while the PlayStation Classic still manages to impress in many reg...
Well built, Many classic games included, Two controllers, Brings back great memories
Some very notable game absentees, Controller cables are too short, Bare bones options
So the overall games list is where the PlayStation Classic falters a touch. We could even live with the short leads on controllers and sit closer the TV if we were careening around corners in Gran Turismo or spelling out horse in Tony Hawk's two-player co...

This tiny PSX is ultra-adorable, Revives some legendary games, Controllers are sturdy and responsive
Some baffling picks in the lineup, Missing many key 32-bit classics, Very short controller cables
If you've lived and breathed PlayStation since the very first console helped revolutionise gaming, then rejoice: Sony's PlayStation Classic nails all of the aesthetic details while reviving some of the most legendary games of all time. On the other hand...
