If it was cheaper, I'd totally buy one and just use it like that on my desk.

I have 0 faith in it!
The library is going to be piss poor and mostly stuff you have already played!
I'm busting my wallet as we speak to find old hidden gems on E-bay.
It's gona be even worse in Europe where we didn't even get many of the popular gems in the first place, and I'm pretty sure they aren't going to rate them this time ether...

That's my point. Adding those features would've made this an easy sell. I can already play all these games on my PS3 as is.

No need for this shit please.
Except you have to already own the game's to be free. Of not you'll have to buy them from the Xbox store. So they're not completely free.
And yes, I do commend Xbox on doing that part very well. Although I'd buy the shit out of a classic mini Xbox

Something really must be done about that. It really is ruining things.

Thanks, Sony, but I'm good.
Bought the Sega Mega Drive Classics the other day, for like 15 bucks, and it came with 50+ games. It will last me for a while.
Didn't even need to connect anything else to my TV, works just fine on my PS4.

I ended up just placing a pre order through Amazon UK, just in case I never manage to secure one from Canadian retailers.
Since the rest of them ditched us, you're in charge of the CanadaGAF thread now, so as soon it's up here you better let us knowNo Canadian pre-orders up yet...

Haha seems to be that way, I post in there every time I come across deals. Calling all Canadian's if you see this shit go up for pre-order post it in the CanadaGAF thread if you haven't seen me post in there.

I just built a pi3+ in the fam icon case and it is glorious. However I will still buy this. It can stay in a box and if my Pi breaks or I lose my roms and ISO’s and can’t recover them it will be handy.

Just cause its rated for 5 doesn't mean it'll draw that, the SNES Mini draws around 2.3 watts which, funnily enough, is the same as a PSTV draws. Now if I were the gambling sort I'd say that its more than likely that the PS Classic actually contains repurposed mobos from that device that Sony had lying around in which case it will be very interesting to see what the mod scene is like because the Vita homebrew arena is flourishing.
If, however, that is the case then it makes no sense for Sony to lock down the games instead of turning it into another PSN delivery channel and allowing people to buy/add more titles which would've made a lot more sense all round so the ARM option, given how decently PS1 is emulated on the SNES Mini, may just be likely.
The real fun begins once its released and the modding commences. Yay! Another paperweight!

Maybe I need to give it another shot, but I personally love the look of the first two, and really enjoyed Rage Racer. 4 was hard for me to get into for some reason

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Well it's got 20 games, so they'll likely need at least 10GB of storage space considering some of the games (like Final Fantasy VII) are multiple disks and take up 1.4GB or so of space on their own. Most of the games were 700MB because that was the capacity of the CDs they were burned onto. Some games were famously smaller than that, so it also depends on what type of compression they use. I would say that 16GB maybe 32GB of onboard storage would be a safe bet, anything above that and they're probably wasting production costs.

Well Type 4 included a 60fps version of RR1 so maybe you will get lucky.

So it doesn't do the single thing that has value against emulators: read original PS Discs?
No thanks, I'll keep both my orignal PS and PSOne, and continue ripping my PS Discs for emulators. What a wasted opportunity (yet another for Sony)...

Maybe we'll get lucky and that expansion slot door is hiding an SD card slot for extra storage.
Or, more likely, it's a slot for a shitty Sony proprietary memory card from a Vita.

Why would it do that it might even be smaller than a Disc drive

I am confused as to why adding one of the worst RPGs ever made would help sales.

So I get the want for SNES classic. Those games are relatively hard to find on nintendo e-shops, they look good on the screen.
PS1 games are easy to find in various formats, and they will look like trash on the screen.
The hardest game I can even think of to find for PS1, that I haven't been able to find, is Brave Fencer Musashi.
PS1, at least to me, is a Squaresoft gaming machine, and outside of Medieval and Spyro, I doubt I would want anything else on it.

If I get some time to this weekend, I'll go into my storage and get it for you. I already know that I won't play it again, and I should still have my copy. I'll let you know if I find it.

Man totally forgot about a lot of those, now which of them on that list are ones that Sony would class as flagship games to represent the mini. Some of those must be on there as there's no reason why the console box would have the 18 rating on otherwise.

The only one of these classic consoles I tried was the Sega Genesis which I returned after 1 day due to the RF controllers being so twitchy you'd lose signal just from a slight flinch/slouch. I don't know if they've all been built that way but it was an automatic deal breaker for me.

Unfortunately, you bought one of the shit ones that Sega was all too happy to sell the license for (perhaps you even got the AT Games one that was absolute shit?). The official ones are likely to be much better - the official Nintendo produced ones are great, just as I am sure the Sony one will be.
Personally, the pricing will keep me away though.

Aren't all of these classic consoles full of games people have already played? That's the point of them.
Also if it has stuff like GTA, RE2, Castlevania: SOTN, Tomb Raider, Suikoden 2, Twisted Metal 3, Tomba, Rayman, Parappa, Abe's Oddysee etc. on it then that would be a pretty good line up of games.
