Thank you Ugreen for sponsoring

I've veeb seeing lots of emulation handhelds and fake joy-con over on TikTok Shop. Mostly accompanied by misleading marketing, or just unfair prices.

Tiktok has taken us right back around to step zero on dropshipping scams. American adults had just moved past this and now they're trying to catch a vulnerable new generation before anyone can tell them otherwise.

Call scammers out! There’s nothing wrong with shaming shameless people.

I fall into the "I don't have a TikTok, but am just curious about this" and uhh yeah TikTok shop looks to be exactly about what I expected

[Resstario]

I'm so sick of these Tiktok shop ads, half my feed is just people promoting their shit man

[dudenamedclem]

The best way to avoid bad reviews on TikTok is to avoid TikTok completely.

[JessicaFEREM]

the fact that you asked them if you could advertise the website and not the app and they never got back to you is very suspicious imo.

They even have localized versions. On German Tiktok they were coming up in masses and even promoting their products in the style of: "F you, you tagged sony and nintendo so much under our posts that they now want to sue us. Nothing is illegal, the games are legal" Which is pretty funny, as they obviously aren't allowed to sell these things with ROMs preloaded...

i hope this video does well because i love listing to Bob telling people what grinds his gears.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one seeing how blatantly annoying the TT Shop ads are getting, this validated me so much. Also $110 for RENEWED? What is even happening in the Joy-Con market?

This channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Doesn’t follow the standard script of every other reviewer.

I've seen a few ads for low end handhelds that claim they can play games that they clearly can't by showing sped up footage. You can obviously tell because the game is shown running at regular speed but the thumbs are moving like the flash lol

[gharrison]

the blown-out audio on the sponsored segment had me laughing out loud 👍

[LaRyccia]

I noticed this problem the other day, the retro games tag is ruined because all you get are people promoting these stupid handhelds and emulators.

[kannalols]

as someone who uses tiktok and also supports emulation and retro gaming, seeing these scams are super annoying... thanks for calling these people out! even if its not going to reach them immediately, its still a great thing to talk about.

TikTok is the worst place to get good info about products

[BraxtonKovary]

Ah yes, I love to download the "R-O-M's"!!

[andrewsvids]

I think about this daily. I brought it up in the sbc subreddit and people were arguing that this wasn’t scamming and its essentially the consumers fault for overpaying and not doing the research.

[bgjck]

Wish, Temu, and TikTok Shop are all the same 😂

[swampat]

What's funny is that ad on twitter you talked about probably lost it's ability to make revenue. Corrected tweets can't make money if I remember correctly.

The saddest part is.. there are plenty of great indie creators trying to sell on TikTok, and they're getting drowned out by the scammers and drop-shippers. =( And unless TT bans dropshipping, it will only get worse.
