I actually had one of those as a kid! My parents got scammed thinking it was the real PlayStation. The graphics were awful and the controller broke after like a week, but weirdly, I have fond memories playing whatever knock-off games came installed. There's something about that janky 8-bit music that's just... somewhat magical. đ˘

Fun fact, these 'PolyStations' are part of a weird grey market for consoles that started popping up in the late '90s. They're basically just NES hardware in a cheaply made PlayStation shell. Some die-hard collectors look for them, but yeah - they're mostly nostalgia trips with a hefty side of disappointment. If the box art has any of those 'Engrish' mistranslations, you've got yourself a real laugh. đ

Ahhh the good ol' PolyStation! đ Brings back memories of knock-off consoles from back in the day. They never quite got the emulation right, did they? Those 8-bit games could be a trip though, in a totally 'so bad it's good' way. Anyone else find it hilarious how these companies weren't even trying to hide how fake it was? Like, come on, at least make an effort to disguise it a bit more!
