Ian Bell Mocks Soulja Boy Over Rapper's Failed Gaming Console

[Tornado]

Only 7 days into the new year and we have our first contender for thread of the year

I hope not. This entire thread has been pretty cringey from the word go. I can't imagine how bad it will look in 11 months.

Too much effort just to understand a random meme. If you have to explain it, it likely wasn't a good one to begin with.

Especially since I've seen a bunch of them on Twitter where they were pretty amusing even though I had no idea what the meme was referencing.

Just three pages after I originally posted it, this needs repeating apparently.


It seems a few people need to be reminded that this is a condition of their membership here. It also seems that a few others need to be reminded of this bit of GTPlanet's FAQ:

Stay classy, people.

I don't think they're taking you on.

When will it be okay to open a mad meme thread?

 

[VBR]

There is nothing classy about a CEO of a company mocking a rapper publicly over money in the first place.

Agreed. And, it's not classy having it as a news item with it's own dedicated thread either. GT Planet is scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one imo.

If you post a silly article, you're going to get some silly replies.

I should hope so too. It'd be a poor community that couldn't have a bit of fun every now and then.

So what it the Take away from the SouljaGame console?

Crime does PAY !
in the short time it was being sold, he Sold 5 million units.
if he made $10 profit from each one, that's a 50 million dollar Pay day.

Sure Nintendo, got the SouljaGame console taken off the market..
but did he have to pay back his 50 Million?

If not, then this is a Perfect example of how CRIME Pays Huge Pay days
and the Punishments for committing such Crimes is Not Severe enough !

So Instead, some new laws are passed that Hurt who?

Yes, the only ones that get hurt, are You and I, Joe and Jane Public Consumers.

Go After the REAL criminals.
Stop punishing Joe and Jane Public for the Crimes of the Real Criminals.

I strongly doubt that the legal action against Soulja Boy will simply be him being forced to stop selling them.

Considering the amounts of BS he was spouting throughout all of this, I'm wondering what's the truth and what's not. He did say that all the game's were licensed, after all. He managed to sell just as much of his consoles as the PS4 sold over the holiday season? yeah I doubt that.

Sure Nintendo, got the SouljaGame console taken off the market..

Who knows. We aren't part of either party.

If not, then this is a Perfect example of how CRIME Pays Huge Pay days
and the Punishments for committing such Crimes is Not Severe enough !

Considering how fresh the situation actually is, we have no idea what the punishment is.

I want this to succeed if only so Microsoft can't calim next gen Xbox as the most powerful console. PS5 will cruise to victory ✌

souljagame.com already reverts to Nintendo. So he has handed over the domain as well.
