The world’s first NFT games console is already a laughing stock online

In the worst idea since putting all your life savings into crypto, a company has just announced a new console dedicated to ‘Web 3 gaming’.

We hope you’ve got a strong stomach for buzzwords because this story has them all, as a brand new hardware launch has just been announced: the Polium One – a ‘multi-chain console for Web 3 gaming’.

The nonsense of cryptocurrency and NFT seems to be coming to an even swifter end than many predicted, but despite the value of crypto already collapsing Web 3 company Polium is pushing ahead with what may be the most low key hardware reveal ever.

All it consists of is the tweet below and Polium replying to a lot of highly sceptical comments from gamers, including a number who point out that the console’s logo looks suspiciously similar to the old GameCube one.

Polium has already vowed to create a new logo and have claimed that although they haven’t got any games to announce they are ‘in talks with different Web 3 game developers’.

‘We know that a console can’t be successful without games,’ they sagely say, while explaining why they haven’t got any games.

They also don’t really seem to have console, as the picture below is a render and they admit it’ll be ‘a few months’ (aka November) before they have a prototype.
