>he's too poor to afford one
>he copes by saying it's a scam
Why is Yea Forums like this? When did the normalfag console kiddies take over?
He's too poor to afford one
This is worse than the ouya
It came out?
Why is your gameboy flat and have a crank?
Its the Quibi of videogames
I feel like people use the word scam to describe things that they do not like in general. Same thing with steam deck.
Although I have to say, yes it is way too expensive. Which is a shame because it's cool.
Wow cool happy meal toy you faggy little hipster poser
It's $180 for a piece of chinkshit with no backlight and a few flash games.
Fuck off pretending to be retarded
Quibi seems like something that was utterly clueless media executives thinking they nailed a mass-market product.
Crankboy is just pure cynicism to sell a couple hundred to game journos and permanently-online twitter videogame social critics.
thought the crank was a dynamo
turns out it's a gimmick control that looks uncomfortable to use on such a small device
it really is, twice the price of an ouya and at least you could just repurpose the tegra inside a it for something else
...
Most Yea Forums posters hve literally been trained like dogs to respond with hostility to stupid San Francisco marketing. They're literally mad that it's yellow, and the webpage is purple. If the webpage was white, and the device was colored "gunmetal" or something, most of the people triggered by it would have no opinion about it at all.
The ouya was a good console actually. Packed with real games not trash like elden ring.
Theres no actual point of owning one of these for any reason.
For the same price you could buy a refurbished Gameboy SP and 3 copies of Wario Land 4.
An original Gameboy was $90 and came with Tetris. Does this crank shit actually have any games? Or is it gonna fizzle worst than a Soulja boy console? At least those things can play roms. Any mobile phone in the last two decades had a back light and could at least play snake. What can this piece of shit do?
Who the fuck want to play old games on a used device?
You couldn't make me care about whatever this thing is.
It comes with 24 free games, and they claim more are going to be released for an additional fee. Also, there are public dev tools, so you might just have random jerk offs making or reproducing games for it for free.
why are these threads getting spammed on Yea Forums? is it the new fidget-spinners?
>YOU'RE POOR THAT'S WHY YOU'RE NOT WASTING MONEY ON TRASH
This thing is going to revolutionize gaming and all you guys can talk about is stale rehashed trash like elden ring.
What are these games? Anything actually substantial or is it just be a bunch of flappy birds and generic mobile trash games?
ok
Flash game teir stuff but monochrome and super "retro" in style.
Yeah, that's the problem with it. The color.
They're original games developed for this. Nobody's played them yet except journos, and even they didn't get access to all of them, as far as I know. At least one is long and story-based, and one's a sidescroller where you move forward and backward with the crank.
this is the pc redditors creed, it shouldn't suprise you at all
>NOOO WHY ARE YOU BUYING THE SILLY HANDHELD!!!
>IT ONLY HAS 2 BUTTONS AND NO LEDS ON IT!!
>THE CRANK DOESN'T EVEN CHARGE IT!!
>THERE'S NO BACKLIGHT SO I CAN'T PLAY IT AFTER BEDTIME!!
>IT ONLY COMES WITH 20 GAMES AND NONE OF THEM ARE HORIZON!! IT'S HECKIN TRASH!!
This smells like money laundering. Vidya review sites also keep shilling it.
>NOOO WHY ARE YOU REFUSING TO WASTE MONEY
>DON'T YOU WANT TO HAVE BUYER'S REGRET???
This thread was generated by an AI.
imagine defending this pile of trash for free
ffs this thing costs almost as much as a switch lite
I already have a switch. Am I supposed to buy another one because someone told you not to like the playdate? What the fuck is the matter with you?
To be fair, it's not "chinkshit" as the build quality is good and the games are well made. The problem is that the idea iitself is dumb, the thing isn't comfortable to hold and play, especially if you're using the crank, and it's just a dumb gimmick.
OP is getting cranky again
It's not even a scam it's just pointless like the knock off PCs. It adds nothing to the gaming landscape.
it is another ouya once the hype has died i will buy one for $10 from a flea market
One of the most pathetic shills I've seen on Yea Forums. Hope they at least pay you decently.
>believes someone told them not to like it
>they know this because someone told them to like the playdate and therefore they do so everyone must be like this
teenage engeneering are one hit wonders the op-z flopped hard, pocket operators are just nice toys, the modulars were doa and they almost doubled the price of their only successful product the op-1
A faggot typed this.
Normal people, user. Don't worry about it.
>$180
Man I would save up a bit and buy a Gameboy Micro + EzFlash. Miss me with shit with no backlight
And on a phone you have literal millions of free games with literal millions of indie devs.
Phones have zero games because even theoretically the ones that might be considered games cannot be played on capacitive touch screens because nothing can be, properly.
I actually sort of wanted one. The $180 isn't actually much, but the lack of back light killed my interest. I just can't be bothered straining my eyes over it.
Do you think I don't already have a phone? It's not like you think they're the same games. You must just be a complete fucking idiot.
A nigger with big lips and no money typed this.
?
I'd rather buy this new fancy GB advance for that money
osu would like a word with you
This is almost $200?
what does the crank do
you play the games with it
>$180
mono sound lol
POORFAGS SEETHING ITT
supposedly
reminds me of pic related
thanks but no thanks
I am sticking to my hacked 3ds.
You have to power it yourself because of global warming
>saw the ign review pop up for this
>same guy that gave the steamdeck 7/10 gave this a 8/10
indie bonus aren't rea-
It lets you crank that soulja boy
can I summon demons with it
