A sorry attempt by Sony to cash in on the mini console craze
The Good
Some decent titles on the library such as Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, and Jumping Flash!
The Bad
Most of the additions are head scratchers such as Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six and Intelligent Qube. Missing games such as the Crash Bandicoot games, the Spyro games, the Tomb Raider games, and much more. No emulator settings which should be expected. Some of the games run on the PAL version, meaning that the games run at a worse frame rate compared to their NTSC counterparts. The controllers don't have analog sticks. Presentation looks barebones in the game selection menu.
The Bottom Line
Buy a supported flash drive and add the files to use emulator settings that Sony should have added such as playing all games in NTSC and adding scanlines. You can even add more games and different console emulators to make it function like a raspberry pi. Just make sure to buy one on the cheaper end.
