PS3 - A good retro gaming console
The super slim ps3 was released only a year before the ps4 came out, giving it a good remaining lifespan. I do like the manual disk-tray slide as (like the ps1) you can remove disks while the power is off. The ps3 design is also more efficient and isn't as likely to die due to the YLOD problem the initial generations suffered from. The PS3 also plays ps1 games, which are fun to revisit.
One caveat is that some of the online features have been obsoleted, including those for individual PS3 games. However, if your main interest is single-player offline, the games are still quite good (we have a ps4 so I'm comparing to that). The other oddity is that the DVD player works but the Blu-Ray does not. I don’t know if its a firmware/software/laser failure (DVD and Blu-Ray use separate lasers).
The specific console I received was in good condition with barely any wear. Other than the Blu-Ray issue it works fine.
