This thing of retrogaming is getting out of hand...

Ok, so "boss up" means "stop selling illegal console".

ROFL test out where souljagame.com leads to now. Hint, it was the name of the handheld Soulja Boy sold.
Edit: This year was crazy, where big companies failed and we got this Soulja Boy issue.

A bloke selling someone else's property for their own profit, doesn't seem entirely unreasonable that one could get into trouble for it.

Here is a review by etaprime on the SouljaGame handheld V2--Save your money !! LOL !

That looks awful. And the lag, even in the menus, is just nuts. What a waste of $100, let alone the $30-£40 you can get it from import.

@John_RM_70 Spend 40-50$ in a RS-97 device and you are happy with it. These devices are so easy to modify ;)
The best retrogaming experience is a Raspberry ;)

RS-97

I have 2 PSPs, 2 Vitas, and a Waveshare Gamehat with a Pi3B+, so no need for that RS-97 thing.

This is a great amount of devices.

@ByteThis Is he still selling consoles bundled with illegal roms?

ByteThis

@saccublenda He is selling this version 2 with no mention of roms in the sales listings, but from that video he is loading roms on it once again. I think he is going to be in HOT water this time with the big "N".

@ByteThis Will he boss up again?

ByteThis

@saccublenda Sure..when he is in jail..hahaha ! He can revisit his old rap songs with his fellow inmates..maybe have a sing-a-long.

Being in jail or having been there may actually help his carreer in the Rap music scene.

@Clyde I don’t know, going in jail for selling illegal videogames to nerds will make you look tough like 50 Cent?

A Former User

@saccublenda More like 5 cent

This is a real shame. Hacking is healthy for the game community. It shows developers what can be done with their own technology. It was like when the original xbox came out and people were running kodi on it (xbmc back then), microsoft were like "wow, that's really cool, maybe we should build a media centre", and they did. But the trouble with that is that it becomes a victim of it's own success, and without big names behind it kodi is in trouble, just as emulation is in trouble.
