Clever name "nD" (indy).
Actually its pronounced nD(end).
Your proof of this is...?

In my experience, if a letter is capitalized in a name, you pronounce it (i.e. "dee"), making the name pronounced somewhat like "indy". I have seen nothing to the contrary.

iPod?
 
Looks like this could go 2 ways:
Bob's releasing an epic 16-bit handheld
The handheld's viral advertisement and he's still working on Bob's Game.

Just think about it, in the video it says "this is the nD"(end)
Which is similar to what he has done earlier saying this is Yuu(you).
 
Okay. Let's assume for a nanosecond that this is definetely real.

16-bit machine,

Faster cpu than DS.

It needs that extra cpu WHY?

Perhaps it will need it for pseudo-starfox/super FX or Sega SVP-like games

Oh wait, they only needed 21 (SUPERFX2) and 23 (SVP) Mhz. DS has, what, 67 in ARM9 and 30 in ARM7? Yeah, you really need more than 4x the highest cpu speed for the most advanced 16 bit machine processor, bob (I don't count GBA as that was technically a weak 32-bit machine).

Check out teh amazing polygons! ON A PORTABLE! IN 2011!

AND IT HAS BUTTONS!!!!!!!!!!

One last note, it has buttons will be a meme. It's just too exploitable not to be.

Disclaimer: since the last time the forum was up, I have personally had Bob and Tim in my house in the Bay Area to obtain the very first copy (signed) of the Get Bonus Ultimate DVD, and Bob did insist he is working on the game, with a plan for putting it on an Android portable WITH BUTTONS. Not sure if that is still the plan. This was back in Nov, and I have not spoken with Bob since.
Just saying, it's plausible that this could, in fact, exist. Although he probably got rid of Android because it's apparently 16-bit. I don't doubt that the nD is an in-game console for Yuu to collect, although Bob seems to be good at learning things as he goes so it's also plausible that he's really done this. Really, it sounds awesome. I'd love to see a new wave of retro games.

It could also be saying "this is the nD" (indy).

indy makes far more sense than end for the name of this "console" IMO. And there would be no reason to capitalize the D if it were pronounced end.

but this is all irrelevant because this is almost definitely fake and the guy seems quite stupid. doesn't seem to grasp the concept of business. "lets sell it for what it cost to make". great idea.

Except for possibly some aesthetic value.
Have you seen the thing? Clearly the man cares nothing for aesthetics...
I'm talking about the name, not the device. People have different opinions on aesthetics anyway.

I know what you meant, I was just using the design of the device to evidence that "bob" isn't too into aesthetics. And I know its an opinion, but his is wrong if he feels that the device is aesthetically pleasing
