Worst Console Knock-Offs Ever

Are you desperate to join the cool kids who own home consoles, but always end up a little short in the pocketbook? Well, look no further! From the Chintendo Vii to the Polystation 3, you can get your next gen gaming fix for a fraction of the money you'd spend on those overpriced name brand consoles.

HOw polystation works you oprn the lid like the PS1 yeah then you take a CD and put it in its case back then take a NES cassete yeah that will go because inside the lid there is area for NES cartraige.
Man one of friend falled for it in 1999 he was say 14 years old and said he could get PS1 in price of NES and he got NES at the end ofcourse.

BeaArthur6638d ago

haha, that is pretty funny. Could you imagine if your parents bought you that for Christmas on accident?

the_gaming_guy6638d ago

Damn, it'd be one of those moments where you don't want to hurt their feelings, but you'd also feel pretty upset.

I hate those moments.

Man... the Haydays of Tiger Electronics Handhelds are way over sadly.

Sheddi6638d ago

haha PolyStation, thats a hilarious name.

SL1M DADDY6638d ago

But that is the most impressive knock off of its time. The Vii, now that is just plain sad but as they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle43d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree49d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai49d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
