I've still have the original
Are these using the same processors, so exactly the same playing experience?
Postie just handed me this lovely piece ;-)

Sold the original one unfortunately...
If I‘m not mistaken, it‘s some kind of emulation, so not the original processors I‘m afraid. But since it‘s from Sony I expect nothing less than the original feeling.
I still have my PS2 and have been trying, not successfully, to get it to hook up to an HDMI screen, mainly to play PS1 games like Battletanx and Rainbow 6.
I don't suppose these play PS2 games, do they? It's an ideal solution if they do.
No PS2 games unfortunately...
I lost so many hours playing one of these!
Does it play any old PS1 game on a disc, or is it only whatever games it comes loaded with?
Ah fond memories of Snake creeping around slotting all and sundry (in the name of saving the world!)
Read a bit more about these - 20 games built in, and that's all you get! Pretty good for £90 but no Battletanx and no option to add other games. Pity.
Stolen from Amazon...
Battle Arena Toshinden, Cool Boarders 2, Destruction Derby, Final Fantasy VII, Grand Theft Auto, Intelligent Qube, Jumping Flash!, Metal Gear Solid, Mr. Driller, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, Rayman, Resident Evil Director's Cut, Revelations: Persona, Ridge Racer Type 4, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, Syphon Filter, Tekken 3, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Twisted Metal, Wild Arms
£90, tempted
And diverted me onto this...
ATARI HANDHELD
They kept delaying the release on these, now in stock at £34.76
That's Xmas evening sorted for moi
I think I need that!

My sons arrived this morning. Dickhead delivery driver just left it on the doorstep in the rain.
Didn’t think it was going to be THAT small.
Fond memories of Resident Evil and Metal Gear but fonder memories of Wipeout. I’m surprised it doesn’t feature on this version.
Can't believe it doesn't have Wipeout on it. That was one of my favourite games even got a Negcon from the States for it
I think I'll get one for my boy this Christmas. I agree that the lack of Wipeout is a shame, but that's probably more to do with the licencing of the music, isn't it?
Might get it simply for Abe’s Oddysee, loved that game series.

Still have the original ps1 with about 30 games in the loft.
Along with an old Megadrive and a Commodore 64 full setup...
Yeah, Commodore 64, when sharing this link with an old friend he said to me "we were C64 fanboys in our day" and provided a link to this https://www.mediamarkt.nl/nl/product...html#meer-info
Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!
I have never used mine, it was in my loft when we moved in.
There is a box full of games on floppy disc, all originals along with a few dozen original cassette games too.
PS1 games include several Abe's Odyssey games, I loved these as did my kids.
Favourite is FF7, followed by the charity 'Help' compilation of Broken Sword, Myst and Road Rash.
Great fun!
Atari retro handheld now in-hand, well, tucked away for my Xmas! You gotta love Amazon Prime.
Must not click on PS console... must not click on PS console...
Weird final selection I thought.
Metal Gear, Resident Evil and Oddworld make this a must-have for original console owners.
Not thrilled about Rainbow Six and Syphon Filter both being included - not with epic FPS like Final Doom and Hexen out there.
Also no "sim" games. Command and Conquer, Theme Park, Jurassic Park Genesis - all awesome time-killers.
Racing games look good, but really did it need Destruction Derby AND Twisted Metal?
Ridge Racer 4 was a superb arcade racer so no complaints there, but Destruction Derby and Twisted Metal are a bit too similar. Drop one of those for Gran Turismo 2 and this becomes an essential!
I'm still having one. First job is to load Grand Theft Auto, find a "cossie" and run down a line of orange Hare Krishnas.
Anyone a fan of PaRappa the Rapper?
It was a blast when drunk/baked!
Not being a buzzkill but you know for that price you could knock up raspberry pi based emulation console that gives you every console and home computer up to the PS2.
Plug in a usb keyboard - hit esc in a game and you change change/fiddle the emu settings !
I cancelled my pre-order for it after reading the previews and reviews. This video really tipped the balance:
Sorry to be a party pooper.

I saw ours in the loft at the weekend when getting the tree down, with a stack of copied games
Remember chipping it
I remember loading MAME64 and discovering you could play old arcade games such as Galaxian, Tank Zone, Scramble, Phoenix and even Lunar Lander and Frogger that used to be table games in the pub. Happy days.
I did get hugely into Common Macrea rally on PS but stopped as it was giving me headaches!
Yes, but will it play
