It seems that 2018’s gaming hero has come up short, and big bad Nintendo has crushed Soulja Boy’s dream of selling video game consoles.
In all seriousness though, it seems that Soulja Boy finally got what was coming to him, and Nintendo finally served up some long-needed justice.
If you’re unaware, the rapper Soulja boy attempted to sale rebranded Chinese knock-off gaming consoles with completely illegal games included. Plenty of people bought into the consoles, although it seems that the majority of his sales were from people ordering the consoles to mock them.
Soulja Boy used his Twitter profile to mock the potential lawsuits coming his way by saying things like, “For anyone that thinks Nintendo is going to sue me you’re retarded.”

He also spoke out against the “haters” that mocked him for his obviously bad ideas.
Well now that Nintendo is doing playing around, it seems the actual potential of a lawsuit has forced Soulja Boy’s hand on the matter. SouljaGame.com no redirects to Nintendo.com.
I had to boss up, I didn’t have a choice. 🤷🏾♂️

Soulja Boy’s pinned tweet says, “You either crank that soulja boy or it cranks you”, but it look like Soulja Boy got cranked this time.
