It’s been a whole crazy saga the past few weeks. Soulja Boy announces he’s putting his own chips in the console wars, and releases both a handheld and home version console with hundreds of games built in.
The problem is, the consoles that he’s selling are repurposed emulators that you can buy and fix up yourself for cheaper on Amazon, with many of those built in games being unlicensed ROMs of various Nintendo, XBox, PlayStation, and various other company games. They apparently run like shit, too.
And as if that isn’t enough, he’s now released two new consoles, also one handheld and one home version (one a blatant Game Boy copy, the other looking like a cross between a PS4 and XBox One). And now he’s in legal trouble with Nintendo, who are fully intent on suing him to Kingdom Come, and if they succeed could land him prison time.
Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t make this up.
