SouljaBoy pulls his "custom made" video game consoles after poor sales

PSA for those on the OT who purchased a SouljaBoy game console!
Page 6
The SouljaGame Console and the SouljaGame Handheld are available for $150 and $100 respectively on the rapper's official store, SouljaWatch. Both are ostensibly on sale from their regular price of $200.
Way announced both systems on Twitter this morning, and almost immediately users noticed that they're available cheaper directly from their manufacturer, Anbernic, via retailer Aliexpress. You can get the console for $106, and the handheld goes for $73. The handheld is also available on Amazon for $60. Strangely, the product descriptions for these systems vary wildly between retailers: the Amazon handheld page boasts of ebook functionality, and the Aliexpress console page makes no mention of several systems listed on the Soulja Boy store.
It's unclear whether the Soulja Boy store is just reselling these systems at a dramatic markup, or if Way worked out some sort of arrangement with Anbernic. It's also unclear what these systems actually are, why the hell they even exist, and why 2018 was allowed to reach this point.

Definitely not legal. It's basically a ROM box of questionable quality. While emulators themselves may not be illegal, there are people that own the rights to the games and are willing to defend it. Selling the ROMs will attract plenty of attention. With a little expertise you can make your own with a RaspberryPI 3.

What games are even made for it.

It was pulled because he was threatened with lawsuits lol.

None are "made" for it. It's full of pirated games. Mostly stuff like 80's and 90's era games, definitely stuff he did not have the rights to sell. I don't care if you have loads of ROMS, just don't go and try sell things you don't have the legal right to.

His dumbass claimed like a week ago he's sold over $5 mill worth of them

Damn, Soulja was just three Red Bulls away from finishing the SDK and getting it out to us developers.
You thought Soulja's rap game was dank, his coding game was even better, he could program bare metal like Jim Butterfield.
Unreal.

Sounds like a Souljaboy console alright.

What slur did he use?

that console is also an extremely illegal console with pirated ROMs being the only thing you can play on a shitty emulator that doesn't even run at a decent framerate.
