    got it working with an old sandisk 16gb drive.
    Initially I had to put it in port 1 to get bleem installed.
    I could put it back in port 2 with games installed.
    Now to tackle retroarch...

    I think my bigger drive (wd elements) is usb 3 which i presume is a problem.
    Not using the OTG as don't have an adapter.
    Ah it will just take me a while to get everything set up.
    Happy with it though, bargain for 20 euro..

    Cheers for reply..

    For anybody who has hacked theirs, have you managed to get Jonah Lomu Rugby to work? I still have the original and a PS2 to play it on, but it's up in the attack and would prefer to get it going on the PS classic if possible!

    I actually don't have a PS Classic yet, the main reason I would buy one is for a handy way to play Jonah Lomu, so was checking if anybody was able to get it working before I buy one!

    Has anyone seen any recent deals on these? Looking to pick one up to 'enhance' for a Christmas present.
    I can see some on CEX for just over €50, and on Amazon.co.uk for about £42.
    Anything better than that?

    Lomu works fine on the psx emulator.

    It seems these are no longer on sale new anywhere, apart from Amazon (where it will cost close to 50 quid delivered). All the used examples seem to be going for similar money, apart from one cheap one on Adverts, but that user has no feedback and the console doesn't come with the power cable or usb cable

    Sure the PC Engine mini is coming and probably a much better use of your money.

    Anyone know if USB extensions are ok to use with these?

    Also wouldn't mind a recommendation of a powered USB hub if anyone has one, would like to be able to use both controllers with my own USB roms :)

    While I know the PS Classic was slated when it came out, I only want one to hack it and add a couple of games. I like the physical look of it, and I also want to play the games with actual PS controllers!

    So it's been a while since these were released.

    Has there been a 60hz hack released yet? Thinking about picking one up

    Not sure if this is what you mean, but if you add the Autobleem mod, it just installs retroarch and uses whichever PSX emulator comes with that. So US games play at full speed (or as close to full speed that someone like myself wouldn't know better).

    Probably not perfect emulation by any means, but its a huge improvement over the stock emulator.
