"Nintendo 1DS" Spoof Site Lampoons the 2DS

[Olas]

How is that the 1DS? Shouldn't the 1DS look more like this

Or am I overthinking this?

Looks like a Nintendized PlayStation Portable, to me. Actually, it looks easier to use than a PSP. I wouldn't mind having one of those things, actually.

That's the funny thing, I honestly wouldn't mind having something like that despite the fact that it's a parody. XD

I have a feeling Nintendo will actually start a cease and desist soon.

Already on various news sites you have Nintendo consumers believing this is an actual thing to buy in stores at some point. Not good.

Would they have grounds to do one though as Parody is covered under the Fair Use Act of 1976, an act the really needs to be updated greatly. >.>
Plus it's sad because the parody actually looks very nice as well.
Anyway, the link to the site has been dead for a while, and if you try to go there all it is is a blank page with the word "Fin" at the top.

I believe it's under Fair Use as long as the consumers are aware that this is a spoof and not the real thing. However considering how a growing demographic of people thought this was legitimate I believe the Fair Use defense would crumble.
The person however saved themselves from a headache by taking down the link.

Thing in this case though is that there is only a small minority that actually believed that, and other sites have been reporting it as a parody so Fair Use is still in effect.
Believe me, I do LPs a lot so I know when Fair Use is and isn't gonna hold up as I have to defend myself on my LPs on a constant basis from Content Match IDs. >.>

Can this actually come out now please?

Sony is doing it with the Vita TV.

Or just make a 3DS, that has HDMI out.

I think I would actually buy this.

*cue 0DS, now with NO screens!*

And then a week later, Sony announces the Vita TV and I'm a prophet. Millions of Bajorans should be worshipping me.
