No UI other than MiSTer menu

PlayStation controller slots disabled by default

Memory card slots disabled by default

Superdock can't boot PlayStation games

Doesn't have any documentation. Only a single youtube video.

Support: "Join the Discord"

Why is this even PS1 shaped if it's just a MiSTer???

Am I the crazy one here? Should I have not expected it to be a drop-in replacement for my aging PSone?

Mine is en route, but seeing the videos and early reviews, I think I'll leave mine unopened for a bit and give them more time to create an interface and get the rest of the software done.

I agree, it's disappointing, but I am still cutting them some slack since it's still a very affordable and nice-looking MISTer box, and I do think they're acting in good faith but just in over their heads (with overoptimistic time lines).

I was most disappointed to see the flimsy Superdock drive, however, since they took so much time and that's a design flaw that won't get better without a hardware rev.
