This is a joke, surely. No respectable company hosts their website on weebly, neither do they have an awful grasp of English when claiming to be launching a console to rival two of the biggest companies on the planet.

Isn't a Joke

Fábio Daniel, member of the project claim:
"we are still not recognized and as such, many people doubt the potential of our project. however promise to revolutionize and we will not disappoint anyone. Regarding not being recognized was always normal, our project never made any issue of gender. This project is to be developed along with other young people and weigh nervous, we are happy. "

Another Details:
1º Best console world and specifications that are a revolution.
2º There is still the possibility of expanding the RAM
3° improving the DVD reproduction
4° The graphics are impressive, being told that it will be difficult to distinguish fact from fiction.
5º Its commands are entered into a new dimension in which the user can interact via gestures, voice commands or traditional
6ºThe console is also environmentally friendly, being made from recycled materials.
 
It would appear that games consoles may be the new 'bespoke supercar' with an American V8 crate engine...

... Which never actually manage to materialise, and if they do, they're not often any good.
 
Those "bespoke supercars" can still drive on any existing road. A videogame console requires a continued supply of compatible software. It's not enough to just launch hardware.

I live in Morecambe. An odd town with odd people. She takes the biscuit.

Anyhoo I call naff all round. The fact it is using DVD says everything!

It will take place in the neighborhood of the bottom of the housing development or simply Quarter Indians (BDI). The conference will be held 31/07/2013.

€5 raffle? This is definitely a poor joke, is it you doing it all Winry?

Is all true, iam not joking at all. These information is avaible on the oficial site, see the link in OP, but is only in Portuguese. I translate because the event will be held in Algarve, maybe someone in this site will go to Algarve- tourist place- and can be interest to see/visit this event.
 
This... what is this?

Do they even have the necessary assets to stake a claim in the mobile gaming market?
 
I find it odd that not a single journalist has written an article about this so called bara 404 making a console. Or of a Portuguese game console.
 
will compete against PS4, XBOXONE and Wii U.
No, it won't.


"The company gets to describe the console as being the best in the world
Ha.

The name of the console, as well as hardware and games are still secret.
Games? You need third party support to have games. As a start up company, anyway.

Some details have been confirmed by the company, as the possibility of increasing the RAM and indicates that the media is DVD."
I hope to all things good I'm being trolled.

"We will announcing the first portuguese console and products never seen. We have very things to unveil."
Well at least they seem to have a firm grasp of English.

"The most waited technology event of the year will happen in Olhão, in the sede of Projeto Mais Sucesso in Portugal."
Gamescom is gonna be in Portugal this year? Neat.
 
How long have they been talking about making this? The Ouya has been talked about for around a year now and has just been released a few weeks ago but where's the news about this system other than that one article? Also when's it supposed to be released? I don't speak Portuguese.

Unfortunately, there is only so far articles in Portuguese.
The console was finished last week.

"Guys, is today! It is now that we have finished our console! Fantastic! And yet announced more: we will announce headphones! Everything in bConsumer 2013! Read more at: http://barra404.tumblr.com/post/54088739253/e-hoje-e-hoje "

"The District Housing Promotion Fund, or the BDI , is a safe place,
not as many have spread terror in our page" - Barra404
 
The greatest console in the world? O.o
Ahahah, that is the funniest article here. Don't get me wrong because we did great thing in the past (key word) but now we're broke with no trust in markets and a console which never been noticiated in our news, It's a bit wierd.
And then with no third party partners announed? Even more wierd.
But I will wait and see
 
How can it be the greatest console, if it only runs DVD :odd:? I'm sorry, but something doesn't add up here.

Wait and we eventually will see the true power of this new console.

Just look this:

"Hahaha. What is this? A toaster? The Steam Box is expensive and not even provide half the functions of our future console!"
Official Facebook page, 6/14.
 
So it's launching on a council estate in Portugal?

I don't know what the punchline is going to be but i'm pretty sure this is a joke.

FAQS:
We will give you answers to some of your questions. We hope we can best respond.

The design of the console is even real?
Yes We know of some people to say otherwise, and made it clear that we have nothing to do with these individuals.

If it's so real, because your "posts" have so many errors?
At the beginning of Blog Barra 404 and also currently, we have been working hard on this project. As such, one thing to the other steals the time, so it's a challenge to keep the blog updated. And the result is not reviewing our texts. We apologize for this. Another thing: The family parmesan posts are fiction. We laugh at those who believed they had been grounded for bad grades. It is an epic case of not having two fingers of forehead.

Ah, ok ... So why do you post content ridiculous and strange?
This was the question that most hurt us emotionally. Well, we will not censor anyone for this. To answer this question, we must return to the launch date of the barra 404. At that time, we started a website with a blog (TO LAUGH and also to make some announcements), with a service wall, with games, with maps, and other resources. Then, from June deactivated this version of Barra 404 and activate the temporary blog. Well, now we're about to announce the new version of the Barra 404 bConsumer in 2013 along with our console. The goal of the blog is to ensure an endless story, where we have to say goodbye the characters. They are John Parmesan Parmesan Joana, Vitor Parmesan, Miguel and Leo Parmesan Parmesan Parmesan within the family. Well, that sounds like a lot of cheese.

Um, anyway, there is only one unique to your console?! I mean, will only be possible to play a game?!
Not! I confess that I laughed at this question. This is because we had just test the extensive arcade game console before reading your question. Say lovers of games and technology will love this console. We have so many games like the stars in the sky (a bit of irony). But now talking more seriously, but we have many games, some paid others free. More information can only give soon, ie in bConsumer 2013.

Why use a free server? Do not have money? And do not think of a domain?
I can not stand the idea of ​​not revealing an important innovation: we will announce a field of barra 404.
And use a free hosting service to get save money because we are not rich. Portuguese are trying to innovate and it was with great difficulty that we got the money for this project. But do not worry: we will present all that is functional.

You are teens?
Yes, we are. We also have adults involved in this project. From what I read in your comments, we have already lost more than half of the readers. But, just leave a little note: read a bit about D. Afonso Henriques.

For God's sake, the bConsumer 2013 will be held in the neighborhood of the Indians. There was no better place?!
Well, we forgot to tell you that we will make the conference at the project headquarters More Success. We have been there many young people to organize the entry and left the people to prevent problems and also to remain calm.

Tried mark bConsumer 2013 elsewhere, but according to what was said, it would not be possible at the time that we indicated.

The space they provided was carefully studied. Nor are people with no bias. Honestly, let's face it: everywhere there is crime.

The project tries More Success to help young people improve grades and being more involved in the public life of the country, to get out of this crisis.

And what is this secret of your labs - the blabs?
Well, it's a place where we invent and innovate. It is a place that we all have: some know how to use this site and others do not. And blabs are nothing less nothing more than the imagination of our team. We thought it would be okay assign a name to this imagination, which is not great, but not weak.
 
I'm all for teens being innovators and doing things with their lives but really... They say they've made a game console that can be just as good as the Xbox one and PS4. That's a bit far fetched to say the least.
 
They might have made one "console" bodged together from off the shelf PC parts at the most.

That is my guess.

I mean even teenagers wouldn't be this stupid.

Question 1....

HAHAHA WE LAUGH AT YOU!!

Question2....

THIS QUESTION MAKE US LAUGH!!!

Question 3....

HAHAHA WE LAUGH WHEN WE SEE THIS QUESTION!!
