None yet, going to fire it up tomorrow after I get back from working out and the gym. The lack of an AC block is annoying but at least I have an extra block, hope it works with this system. FF VII is the main reason I got it, we'll see if I really spend much time playing anything else. Decided to try it out tonight, using the HDMi slot my PS3 usually uses so it's not mixed up over there with my NES/SNES classics. I now have 5 devices that use HDMi cables so I definitely need to look into a splitter. Looks good so far, definitely need to venture into other games at some point.

After reading all the negative reviews and hearing what people have to say about the PS Classic in YouTube videos, I'm definitely glad I decided to cancel my pre-order. The list of games is awful and the fact that a lot of the games actually on the console are in PAL format is unacceptable. Sony saved me $100. lol

My 4K TV only has 2 HDMI ports and I have quite a few things that I like to have plugged in, so I bought a couple 4K splitters on eBay that were pretty cheap. They work great though!

I'd rather have the USB adapter than an HDMi cable, bet I'm alone there though. I just use the HDMi cable for my PS3 and move it back and forth.

Piece of trash cash grab by Sony. What a disappointment. Thing already dropped to 49.99 some places.

It's down to $40 on Walmart's site. Amazon matched it.

Best Buy has priced the Classic all the way down to a whopping $19.99. Deal ends July 17. I suspect Amazon will copy them.

Jumped on it at 19.99. Glad I waited. Might get a 2nd for mods if it stays at this price by next week.
