The editors liked

  • Adorable design
  • Great build quality
  • Comes with two controllers
  • Faithful physical design
  • Some genuinely excellent classic games
  • Comes with two gamepads
  • The PlayStation Classic packs in 20 games from the original console
  • Including milestones like Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy VII. It also includes two controllers
  • And you can easily save your progress in the games
  • Console and controller look and feel nice
  • Some great classic titles

The editors didn't like

  • No software options
  • Limited save states
  • Poor game roster
  • Controllers aren't DualShock
  • Just 720p resolution
  • Bottom Line
  • A strange selection of games and muddy upscaling keep the PlayStation Classic mini retro game system from doing Sony's first console justice
  • 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
  • It feels expensive
  • Lackluster and inconsistent emulation quality
  • PAL titles play terribly
  • Controller doesn't include DualShock
  • No AC adapter

  • Console and controller look and feel nice, Some great classic titles
  • Lackluster and inconsistent emulation quality, PAL titles play terribly, Controller doesn't include DualShock, No AC adapter
  • The PlayStation Classic has a few great titles, but for the most part it betrays the memory of the original console with inconsistent emulation and a baffling inclusion of PAL games.How would you rate the PlayStation Classic?We want to hear what you think...

  • Abstract:  Even though I know all these retro consoles are largely an effort turn my nostalgia into big-time corporate profits, theyre damn hard to resist. Theres just something about gray plastic and the old school boot up sound that hits a deep part of my brain...

  • Abstract:  In the absence of a miniature Nintendo 64, Sony has decided to keep the new holiday tradition of tiny, retro throwback consoles alive with its PlayStation Classic. If you're at all familiar with Nintendo's “classic edition” line — which includes both the...

  • Adorable design, Great build quality, Comes with two controllers
  • No software options, Limited save states, Poor game roster, Controllers aren't DualShock, Just 720p resolution
  • The PlayStation Classic seemed like it was destined to be an easy sell — another retro console that'd end up being unattainable through the holiday season. Perhaps it'll still be hard to get. But even if it is, it won't be because it's good.Sony's first s...

  • The PlayStation Classic is a serviceable retro console with 20 mid-90s games, but many of them don't hold up as well as you might have hoped, while other, better ones are conspicuously absent...
