Luckily, it looks like Nintendo has already noticed, and they are taking him to court. It's possible that he could face 10 to 15 years in prison for what he's been doing. I don't feel bad for him, though.

First I hear of this. Do you mean like "THE" Soulja Boy, or is that the name of the console?

Light Knight : I looked it up, and it seems it's THE Soulja Boy. He made his own "Game Boy" ripoff with 500+ games installed, including Nintendo classics. One article on it had this classic line: "However, it seems that Soulja Boy should not have cranked that". I'm laughing soooo hard.

Nintendo has patent on the design of the gameboy: https://patents.google.com/patent/US5184830A/en

They have to file a lawsuit it is the law because unlike copyright or trademark a patent is more serious since Nintendo did it first. If they don't do it than they would risk losing the patent.

Not to mention when he stole those systems he also  slapped his name on them and those consoles don't even play the games on there  very good in other words they play really bad, when it comes to gameplay even the controls suck.
I was watching Rerez on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqXuAuTFXpA I'm surprised that SouljaBoy didn't stick to his music business like he should have been, I just can't believe he tweeted that he wasn't scared of Nintendo, its like what is wrong with you, your just asking for trouble when you tweet stuff like that.

Wow, turns out, it wasn't Nintendo that took him down. It was himself. He has removed everything from the website. We are saved, my friends! I wonder if he will still be charged for his actions, though. Only time will tell.

Based on what I read, Soulja Boy made his own Game Boy handhelds to play NES, SNES, and GameBoy games. If it was just the handheld itself and NOT have any games on it, it is perfectly legal (because of 3rd Parties making retro consoles/handhelds since the official consoles & handhelds are discontinued long ago), but as long as these consoles/handhelds does not have any Nintendo-owned games pre-installed in them, and Soulja Boy's 3rd Party handheld did in fact had those pre-installed Nintendo games and that's a big no-no.


Also, as long as you bought all of those games, Nintendo (or any other gaming company) don't really mind that you put all those games into a single handheld system you created, as long as you only made the handheld for yourself to use, but if you make a production of multiple systems without Nintendo's permission and make a profit out of them without giving Nintendo their share of the money, then that is where Nintendo start issuing lawsuits.


hellno163 : I think with the wealth that Soulja Boy has, he wouldn't be scared at all by Nintendo and all.

Although the whole souljaboy situation is over, I have some closing thoughts.

People who have clout often get cocky, it's only to be expected that he would've acted like this. I'm sure it was quite the humbling experience for him, and I have no idea how many fans he lost. Either way, this just goes to show you that honest work is the only kind of work. Stay in school, kids.

yoshirulez! : True but at the same time, that hope was technically already broken since one person did it.

Influence can do a lot, especially to greed regaedless of how much common sense you have or how smart you are.

hellno163 :

Apparently he took down all of the consoles and handhelds off of his website, now the website has nothing on it and you can't buy anything from him anymore. This makes me wonder if he will get in trouble for what he did now, since nobody can buy things from him anymore from the site. I hope he gets some sort of punishment, what he did was inexcusable.

Everything about this whole fiasco was...weird, from Soulja Boy being involved in the first place to the way it just...ended when he took all of the consoles down from sale. It was still dumb to just sell off-the-shelf hardware at severely inflated prices and even dumber to use Chinese systems with copyrighted games pre-loaded on them, and his responses to the extremely negative press were exactly the wrong thing to say when you've made people, including a large gaming company, pretty mad and curious at the same time.

It also doesn't help that the emulation on all the stuff he rebranded and sold was horrible and was outdone by practically any other emulator on any other system. Whatever ends up happening from here, I hope this saga doesn't repeat itself.

My favorite part of this whole endeavour was how Soulja Boy kept saying he wouldn't get in any legal trouble because he totally didn't break any laws! Then all of a sudden he takes the consoles down.
