"Mom, can I have [game console]?"
"No, we have [game console] at home."

Thank's for the mention 😁 in my channel I have more ridiculous consoles and retrocomputing stuff 😉

[TommDuarte]

My first console was a polystation, it was what my parents could afford at that time when I asked for a video game, I have great memories with it 😂

Disappointed to see WatchMojo rip our videos, and use them without consent. We didn't even receive an email, nor a DM asking for the rights to use our content. We would have been fine with it if you asked, but the cheek to download, and use our content for a majority of your video without asking is a little too far, especially when WatchMojo themselves fine other creators for using their content without "licensing". We'll be emailing you shortly. :(

These look like consoles you would get at a Dollar Tree.

I think as a Latin American, the Polystation is cultural meme at this point. As a child you could find it being sold just about everywhere; the first one I encountered for sale was at a Farmer's Market... on the meat side of the market for some reason. Having one was the bomb (NOT), as me and my friends would try to count just how many clones of the bootleg games were squeezed into the same cartridge. Good for a laugh at least.

Cheers!

Every one of these is prime for the classic "can we get this/we have this at home/this at home:" joke.

When I heard that Soulja Boy was making game consoles, I was scratching my head like crazy. He lost relevance in the industry, and tried to find it again with us gamers.

When you thought the Console Wars was worse.
Well this is the biggest Console Wars in the world.

So glad u guys featured JonTron and RelaxingEnd, two of my favorite YouTubers, one is a guy who talks about out-of-nowhere subjects while being freaking hilarious, and the other is possibly the greatest unboxer on YouTube

"Mom can we have this new game console?"
"We have it at home."
Game Console at Home:

Imagine being so out of touch that you would think these are suitable birthday presents

[kskollections]

I am not a gamer, but, I would never have bought those ridiculous consoles! 🤣🤣

[Revcharge]

i would like to thank every youtuber on this list for using these KO items so that we don't have to.

I had a PSP knock-off called the PVP which played NES games and it was such a weird but also a fun device.
Of course I also had a real PSP as well.

The PolyStation: "It's just not a game anymore!!"
How true, how true lol

[rtyDFGaS]

Wait.. No Dendy?

The entirety of Eastern Europe has been playing NES/Famicom knock-off consoles with different names. The most famous one was Russian Dendy based on Micro-Genius consoles that are Famicom copies.

[DJTravTV]

My biggest thing is can't the actual developers (Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, etc) sue them and get them shut down indefinitely??? There's no way these knock-offs are able to ship massively

I'm glad they featured Retro Dodo ( Brandon ) in the video.
Big fan of his content 👍

LOL, this was one awesome list.

My local K-Mart had the Polystation. It was in the same aisle as the Sonny and Panamsonic TVs.
