Permanent bilinear filtering
Half the games are slower European versions
The framerates are wildly inconsistent

This, literally takes like 5 min and it's one of the greatest emulation machines

i think even if you don't mod it, at $20, its at least worth it for the two usb controllers, hdmi, and usb cable. >__>

You shouldn't need to mod something for it to be a competent product.

It's not even worth buying it to hack it, right?

It's definitely worth it at $20. 5 minutes to hack then you can play any PS1 game you want without speed or framerate issues or whatever.

I already have a Raspberry Pi 3b.
I got a new TV 2 weekends ago, at first thought I'd have an extra TV, but I ended up giving that TV to my sister.

Anyways, I got a playstation classic at best buy the same weekend cause it was $20.
Firgured, why the hell not at that price. And yes the emulation (for PS1 games) is very similatr to that of a pi, with less options, yet for some reason I am enjoying added games to it, plus it looks cool, and the controllers are good.
I'll probably get a 2nd tv eventually anyways.

True but emulation is a good thing to consider for people who mightve bought one early on and been disappointed. Plus at the heavily discounted prices its been going for, it really isnt too bad of a buy once you set everything up.

Plus the default game list for most people only has like maybe half they would be interested in.

Sure but at a certain point you're not even buying it because it's a PlayStation Classic. You're buying it because it can be modified into an emulator machine you load your own ROMs and ISOs into. You're doing the work to turn it into something different. As far as I know you shouldn't even be using the emulator on the device itself.

The only reason it's worth it at all is because it flopped so hard it had to go in the bargain bin to clear stock. I don't know how they fucked it up so bad.

Yes, it's super easy. You're just putting stuff on a flash drive then inserting it into your PS Classic. That's it.

not to mention, after hacking it you can add other emulators to it so you're not limited to PS1 games. Ultimately a Retro Pi might be the better option, but for $20 the Classic is a nice cheap alternative.

I mean yeah but if it's only 20 bucks a little bit of modding isn't a huge issue

Theres nothing illegal about it, simple mods allow you to run the built in games with superior emulation, the problem is links to guides often discuss where to download games and thats the part that will get you modded
