People just want to hack it to get more games
I cancelled my preorder on the PS Classic because of a lack of good PS game titles. Gran Turismo wasn’t among them.
They should have put resident evil 2
“It’s good but not great” no it’s not. The emulation sucks, the games are not the best, lots of them are missing. The price is high… this thing blows!
This really sucks it really does could have been done better
How would we buy more PS1 games?
Bad
It´s not good but it will be after some smart guys made it to hack that board completely.
“They are taking this device, making it smaller” except they didn’t actually convert that device, but just lazily bought someone else’s emulator, did not bother with optimization, made a half-assed menu, threw a questionable library of games on it all to jump on the classic bandwagon to make some quick cash.
I’m keeping my actual ps1 thankyouverymuch.
It’s almost ok, but not good!
I just wanna play Kula World man
Can anyone tell me the same game as in 3:15 ? Been searching for it for a while. All i can remember is a guy agent been captured and we need to rescue him. In that game there a mission when we have been given a camera and that camera can change us base on the person that we had taken picture of. Its kindda japanese but have a english version too. If someone know plsss tell mee .
Xbox classics ill pre order if they have 50cent bulletproof, scarface etc.
Where’s Spyro the Dragon? Where’s Gran Turismo? Where’s Need for Speed? Where’s Twisted Metal 2? Where’s Crash f*cking Bandicoot!?
CAN U ADD MORE GAMES?!?!?
I totally agree, this console, that I call PS1 2018, is good, but NOT great!
I misunderstood the commercial for this console, and thought that you’re gonna be able to buy other PS1 games than the 20 pre-installed games on something like Playstation Network via the PS1 2018, but when I pre-ordered this console and got it in my mailbox, it stood in the manual that you can only play the 20 pre-installed games, and no other PS1 games at all.
That is just such a disappointment.
I think new and modern games are too advanced and complicated, and I prefer old games more than anybody else.
So I am really disappointed in Sony. As far as I have seen on YouTube, there are very many people who worship old games for (for example) PS1, and I can’t believe Sony don’t care about them (although they did care about them when PS3 was in store and you could buy PS1 games via a PS3).
I love how they say “cramming 20 games into it” lol.
If it doesn’t have twisted metal and tekkan it’s trash
metal gear asks also for a disk change
He said the eject button instead of the open button
I’ll get it when its 25 bucks… but prob not until then
second look : it’s not good it sucks lol
Bleemsync now it’s worth the price
Download an emulator and the roms of whatever games you want. Its better on pc.;)
DO NOT BUY !!! It’s not a PS1 that’s a PS1- toy with the installed 20 stupid games. You can not open it, you can not put a CD inside and you can not install new games.I have the PS1 and PS2 in the closet, I just need a scart adapter for digital TV. Now i just ordered it! What a fool?! Luckily, it’s a sale!
Some people are TOO PICKY about the games
Definitely not worth the money. You are better off going for the NES Classic or SNES classic for the money.
And now that price has fallen nearly in half. It looks like something that could have been great, but just wasn’t.
I just bought one since there is a hack to put on any PS1 games and that is awesome!!
I got one just to hack it and it worked
3D games age horribly, feels bad man…
Who else used to keep the door open and put your finger in the button at the back to keep the disk spinning?
Play station wanted me to draw up a new logo for sony…
لهبة حلوة جدا
So, you cannot install games on it ?
ASSEZ
If this was that bad how come you can’t find them in stores anymore today. Walmart had them in stock for a few months in (2019) soon after they were sold out so I assume they were selling well that year.
I’m getting it
I might be the only person to ever live that is actually super happy that I got one
if this thing had crash bandicoot or tomb raider maybe even megaman legends that would of been cool but nope. they had to put in non ps classics like freaking mr driller.
I hate the new consoles! I loved PS2 with baseball, Tetris, and Karaoke revolution. Thinking about finding one for the games I still have. Mine stopped working but gotten rid of it though.
This is just a PS collectors item to put on a shelf in my opinion .. BUT for people that really want to play some of these 20 games I would say go for it .. I see lots of these consoles online for like 50 — 80 $ right now .. more or less offcourse .. If you think about the cost of Revelations: Persona alone it’ll cost you more then 150 $ on PS1 .. This game is a very expensive game .. Twisted metal starts at 70 $ + .. Not to mention Resident Evil , Final Fantasy 7 and some others that are expensive to buy .. If you only like 1/2 games of this selection you have your money back ..
They could have made more out of it , but there are some great classics on it .. Otherwise the only major drawback for me is that there is a clearly lower response speed
with many ( if not all ) of these games.. That’s why I feel it’s good as a collectible. For example, for me personally, Abe’s oddworld is the best game from this selection, but also a game that should absolutely not suffer from delays. This is another one of those games where responsiveness is the only way to play this game…something this console has issues with ..
expectations were high, and I really understand the disappointment of some people .. a 7/10 score for this console one 👀 price — quality

Look, you can say it’s disappointing all you want, but once you mod it, this thing will be a powerhouse.
