YouTuber RETRO GAMING ARTS has uploaded a four minute tutorial on how to hack the miniature console, allowing you “to use multiple save states, scanlines, change games to NTSC for 60 FPS and so on.”

If you’re interested to find out how, check out the video below, but be aware you’ll need a specific keyboard to make it work.

The highly-anticipated PlayStation Classic console was on a lot of peoples’ lists to Santa this year, but it’s not exactly the nostalgia cash cow that everyone was hoping for.

The console has received incredibly poor reviews from disappointed customers, and it currently stands at a mere 1.8 star rating on Amazon.

It seems peoples’ main gripe is Sony’s use of the European versions of the original games as opposed to the US versions. Because of this, some US players are experiencing issues with frame rate, choppiness and blurriness.

Others are disappointed with the choice of games, but hey, Metal Gear Solid is on there!
