Top 10 Biggest Video Game Console Rip Offs 

Thanks to Retro Dodo for some of the footage used in our video! Check out his channel for more great videos! -> ru-vid.com

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 😂

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

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

What do you think of these ridiculous console rip offs! Any we missed? Let us know in the comments! Check out our Video Game Consoles playlist -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6IbI1v5hAOU.html

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

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

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

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

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!

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.

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.

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

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

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

These things were unusually common. Ebay, Amazon, dollar stores, and a kiosk at the local mall would have several of these.

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.

Did anyone really expect anything decent from Soulja boy...like ever? I mean at least there's no debate over whether these consoles are good or bad like his 1 song.

Some of them are good retro console games packed with old NES, PS1 and Dreamcast games. But i pretty hated those LCD ripoff consoles that imitate hot modern ones 😬

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

You really should include polish famiclone "Pegasus"

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. :(

I love how "Polystation" sounds like "Police Station".

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.

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

(2:24) I remember browsing a shop in the early 2010s that sold cheap household products, and they even sold that, with a demo device (that was connected to a small grey 14" CRT TV) having its fake N64 joystick broken off. At the time, the only Famiclone games I played were on Chinese ODM portable DVD players, so I didn't know the connector on the back of the main controller was for Famicom cartridges.

I got one of those rip off called Ali-com back when I was six years old. The exterior looked like old version of PS1 but it ran several built-in NES. Surprisingly tho, it could run the games pretty smoothly.

Whats sucks is I always wanted a minines but there's a lot fake ones look exactly like the original with really bad games I had to find a way to distinguish between them & thanks to RU-vid reviews I found that original have only 30 games while the fake one has like 300 I end up finding a original one in a pawnshop I love it

Seeing the Flame Decals in the Jungle Tac Vii's controllers- take my money!!!

The Super Joy brought my godbrother and I lots of memories back when we were poor kids lol. We stayed up all night playing those games on that thing until the wire got a shortage in it and kept resetting to the main menu. Then it became a contest to see how long we could play before the game messed up lol. We blamed it on the “wire guys” - some imaginary job where guys control the wiring to EVERY electronic in the city (mind you we were in Houston) and we thought they were disconnecting our game from afar just to mess with us. Awesome times. I even bought one years later as a rich champ just to relive the memories.

This video is like a tribute to Dr. Ashens

….I’m so happy my parents weren’t fooled into buying these

Love your content! Stay safe everyone 🌞

So instantly I'm just like yo Soulja Boy where you at

Polystation was my first console, but I had fun with it when I was a kid.

I’ve seen a Danger Dolan video that had about knock-off game consoles.

You guys laugh all you want, but the poly station made my childhood 😂😂

Super Joy was the only console my parents could afford and we built lot of memories with that knockoff.

That YOUUUU took me out😂😂😂😂😂

"Did you insert a memory card?"-sonic the childhood struggles were real I also remember him saying "Need more memory bud"-Sonic when you didnt have enough data to save

I knew I'd see the solja game and shit

I think "Rambo TV Game" is my favorite name, lol!

Oh yeah, good old Polystation... Ruined a lot of Christmas around the world 😂

Top 10 Video Game Prototypes that Look Way Better than the Final Game

Show more respect WM. here in Latin America Polystation its a legend

That PCP console had me laughing super hard! Some of these rip off names are just so funny, where do they come up with these names!

Watch mojo: makes a video about knockoff consoles Rerez: i’m the ghost of the money that you wasted on this fucking console

Polystation? More like Phoneystation.

You know what I did have the PolyStation once, it has a bunch of preload NES and Atari games and some knockoff games, a cartridge slot, and a lcd game on the consoles itself. The LCD part lasted the longest ironically, got me hook on Tetris, Bricks, and Snake.

Which ever ones have Pokémon and Final Fantasy games, I'm down to buy and play.

I heard the PCP uses the advanced LSD screen.

The biggest console scam was Dendi. Russia marketed NES for a few weeks in those times and then said "fuck it, let's have our own crap" and started to sell a pirated version of NES called Dendi. All the games from NES were also pirated and a lot of them had difficulty spikes if that was the case. I still remember how unforgiving Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game was with ordinary levels being hard as hell just to get to the immortal final boss with no chance of winning.

I came across a red Power Player Super Joy 3. It had a bunch of pirated NES titles preinstalled. Actually, some "games" were really just individual levels of other games. Some with switched out color schemes. The N64 style control stick is a fake and does not move period, and you could screw a joy stick attachment into the Genesis controller D pad. The system was trashed ASAP.

I like the reference for Soulja Boy "guess who this man was trying to scam....Youuuuu" a classic way to reference him. It's just kind of sad it's not a better thing to be referenced for 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Number 8 looked liked those old Tiger handheld games from the 80's and early 90's.

7:46 Roberto Artigiani ?! 😅 That man was the salesperson in Italy of the Power Player Super Joy ...

I thought my Superjoy smelled as if it were burning, as it was burning!

I have two handheld game devices, one of which is a knockoff of the PSP, called the X6. The other is called a D-CAT 16. The thing about the knockoffs is that even if they claim to have hundreds or thousands of games, many are emulated games that have duplicated game levels. They can say there's that many games because all of these duplicates have a different name.

I find it interesting how the Polystation box copied the original Nintendo 64 Box with those features on the side, using the same font even.

Ah yes,Polystation a PlayStation rip-off that no strange to Indonesia. The most popular ripoff in Indonesia.

I once saw a “Funstation” being sold in Trinidad.

Always good to see ashens in the lists

Number 2 has the greatest joke Watch Mojo has ever done 🤣🤣

My father bought a wii look like for like $125 for his grandkids, barely worked and they stopped playing with it in less then a hour.

Chinese companies: Ok we need to make a console that is Outstanding! Employee: How about a console with unique design and games that are official and new that comes with it? Company: Good one, anymore recommendations? Some random guy: get a box and install nes roms in it and name it to a similar famous console with the exact same design and add random things that doesnt make sense. And make the box of the console absolutely bad. Company: WERE PROMOTING YOU TO CEO, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE

Damn Number 2's opening critique... can't be better said 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Those Bootleg Consoles look like something that Batman would throw out of the Batcave because he got them at Dollar Tree.

Only plug'n'plays I could ever recommend were those Namco ones from the early 2000's that had their old arcade games on um. Those were awesome

My grandparents have the Polystation which I play a few time when I was a kid. Almost bought one myself on a school trip but I didint have enough money at the time.

Why aren’t these companies not sued into prison?

Can you do top 10 Sonic the Hedgehog characters who could have appeared in the Sonic Boom TV show?

Before I watch this I already know Ashens is going to be in this video a fair amount

Treamcast isn't a ripoff but a knockoff. It's pretty hotly pursued by Dreamcast fans as it has all the functionality of the original plus a built-in screen.

All that plastic used to make these knockoffs is just going to end up in a landfill or ocean.

Treamcast is the best knockoff ever lol

WatchMojo: The Ashens list.

I had a super joy console as a kid. Was playing it one time and there was a spark followed by a small little fire. The fire went out itself.

Is it wrong that I want all of these?

Ah, scams. They’ll never disappear until we start punishing those who make them.

#8 sounds like a place people go to take bad trips.

Legitimately thought I was watching a Retro Dodo and Ashens collaboration. As between them I think they accounted for most of the video

Fitting soundtrack 😂

7:24 those things are everywhere

I remember when my mom brought us a poly station me and my brother trying to hold in our laughter when we saw this hahahaha

OMG! You got "Super Mary!" XD

But do any of them actually work?

The Undertaker's 8bit theme at the end.

This is a reminder to buy real and not fake. Because ultimately it's you who will be paying for it in more ways than one.

What would happen if these video game consoles weren't rip off? Which one of them is worth buying?

Wow, sounds like we got a million facepalms?!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I dont care what anyone says, The "Golden China" console was king! 999999in1 cartridges FTW

The PCP killed me lmao.

I remember there was an Australian morning show on channel 10 in the early 2000s with Bert Newton and Kerry Ann Kennelly or something along those lines. They were doing one of those TV shopping adds during their show where they would be selling a random product or so. And they had on there an Arcade Emulator Console that looked just like a Nintendo 64, but it was playing all of those 70s and 80s Arcade games, some of which I believe were Roms from licensed games like Pac Man and Space Invaders for example. I don't know how but I never saw anyone during that shopping add ever say which companies they got the license from in order to get those Roms on that N64 looking console to play just Arcade games on there. I think it was called Arcade Classics or something and they were selling it for $60 Australian dollars during the early 2000s and there was like 100 games on one Cartridge for the base package, but if you ordered within the limited amount of hours you would get another Cartridge with 50 extra games on it. Looking back on it, I was sure it was one of those Chinese hack consoles. Maybe that Australian morning show on Channel 10 were selling Bootleg games long before Soulja Boy.

_Beware the grass mask._

I remember when I got a Superjoy variant from Keller’s Flea Market lol

7:20 "Did you insert a memory card?!?!" 7:22 "No I did not...." 😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣

Wow the "scream why" was so cringe. Ouch.

This is the kinds of stuff grandparents get their grandkids for Xmas. Horrible, HORRIBLE knock offs.
