When this kid is given an anal probe by Microsoft, it will also be because of reasons.

This guy is gonna get a fucking hammer of legal shit coming down on him. Nintendo flew a man out to a small town that sold copies of Pokemon X and Y early and shut the store down and took photo's of everyone who were sold the game and had to return it.

That's just one game, this is a next gen console made by an even bigger company.

It really looks like an old VCR. Also is it me or does that controller looks like it is made with cheap plastic? Maybe it is me but it looks so much cheaper than the 360 controller to me.

Yeah, the kid sounds like kind of a moron, if I'm honest. And those videos were really boring.

They'll be fine. Millions of uncles who worked at Nintendo in the 90s kept their jobs after their nephews told everybody about their top-secret copies of Super Mario + Sonic for their prototype Super Duper Nintendos.

Yeah I like the look of the console but the controller looks kinda tacky.

The D pad in particular looks pretty bad

Which honestly wouldn't seem far from the truth, given the amount of legal trouble he's just gotten himself into.

I can't tell if he's from Northern Ireland or Ireland... He seems to flip between the two accents.

Not that it's important, but I think it's hilarious that the case is that big and they still couldn't get the power supply in it. Other than that, I feel really bad for this kid's parent. Hopefully since it's not unreleased information they won't get in too much trouble.

@cale:

Sounds like Derry to me, bit of Belfast, are there any microsoft places here? That might be a hint, if his parents work there

Edit: and yeah, it's a weird mix, pretty hard to tell.

Going by his accent, i'd say he lives within 60 miles of me.

Yep, definitely Belfast or Derry

So you're going to go and find him, right? Please do and tell us all about it.

Purely from the way he speaks, he is either an idiot or a PR person.

I feel that this is just really bad marketing, no one would make a video that just feels so off...

Maybe it's not his parents' in the first place and he's not putting anyone he gives a shit about at risk.

It kinda sucks they changed the controller just because, but at least it's still basically the same.

Also, wouldn't it be dandy if he logged into XBL on that thing? haha

@cale:
There seems to be one on Queens Road, The Innovation centre, that's what google says anyway.

@jjweatherman:

I would try to befriend him then steal it, but all there is to go on is he's young, he has a laminate wood floor, wears socks, and might possibly live in the same country as me.

I'll start knocking and looking at peoples hands in the morning.

The fact that they use Youtube tells me it's marketing. Youtube obviously has a broad reach and has the means to take it down after a while to control the way it is being marketed.

If shit was real they would be using LiveLeak.

Heh, one hour later, and the Youtube account is closed, and I'm sure some people will be looking for new jobs.

...How's this stupidly NDA-breaking?

If I had to guess...it may have went something like this:

"Hello Mr./Ms. Journalist or Industry person...here's an Xbox One Console! You agree to the following multiple pages of terms and conditions, in order to receive this hardware you must sign on all dotted lines and areas marked with an X with your own blood, in the presence of witnesses. If you breach the terms of this agreement, we will legally be able to kill you and your entire family. And your dog. Have fun with the Xbox One!"

They can't possibly fire anyone simply because this kid showed a thing that we all saw 4 months ago... can they? The dude who showed the dashboard was one thing, but this is nothing we have not seen before.

Even having the youtube account removed, I mean what's the point?
