      The dongle for the controller was missing in the box so my controller was not able to work. This may be an issue for others as well. Thanks for the video, it helped me figure out why the controller wasn’t connecting and working.

      Since I'm experiencing it aswell and I've studied it from the video my theory is that you need that wall power adapter in the video for it to work cause hooking it up to the tv makes the game stick light go red while in the video the 2 lights are blue

    The PS1 roms that come on the Micro SD card are not good. I inserted other roms, and everything works great. The games I tried: Medal of Honor, Medievil, MK4... I've only had this for two days. You can also use controllers on your PC, for playing PC games. For €20, this is a great deal.
