Yeah I bought one, pretty cheap (can't remember the price).

They do what they're meant to, games are ok, but of the '0000s of games, only a handful are heard of (for me).

Exact replica of the original tbh.

Go for it if you're bored it can kill an hour.

Aren’t these just emulators that you can get for free on the internet?

If you can connect your pc or laptop to your tv you can have it for nothing.

probably, but they have a controler, and just plug nd play, cant be arsed messing with emulators etc, and they arent expensive, like £20 ish,
Ive tried a few emulators and had nothing but trouble, but that may be on me not them

The one game I wanted (Colin McRae rally from PS1) isn’t on any of them that I’ve seen and I was gutted when I found that out lol.

Still looking for one with that on if anyone has seen it please shout.
