PlayStation Classic

Everything you get in the PlayStation Classic package.

The PlayStation Classic is designed to look near-identical to the original PlayStation, albeit 45% smaller, and it ships with two wired controllers (for top multiplayer action) and an in-built HDMI output so you can easily play it on HD TVs.

PlayStation Classic is powered by USB cable, meaning that any port capable of 5W out, or via a USB-to-AC plug, is capable of powering the console. Video output can be switched between two resolution modes, 720p (1,280 x 720) or 480p (640 x 480). 

The PlayStation Classic is available now for £89.99 ($99.99), and can be picked up at Amazon, GAME, HMV, and ShopTo. In the United States, PlayStation Classic can be bought from BestBuy and Amazon. The best prices on the web right now are shown below.
