This L.A Times typo has quickly become a buzz
Los Angeles Times wrote proudly today about a new device from Nintendo, announced fresh from E3: The white Playstation 4!
Yeah, that’s kind of embarrassing. They quickly corrected the mistake on their website, but for obvious reasons couldn’t do the same on the thousands of printed versions of the newspaper. Hilarity ensues, and the event triggered lots of reactions on gaming websites and social media.
I wonder if @Sony is aware of this interesting development ??? pic.twitter.com/L58N9w1C5h

Playstation Europe’s response was hilarious and a really good way to take advantage of this as free publicity. Kaz Hirai was kind of a jerk about it, though. ;P
Kaz Hirai’s acccount = fake account
Yeah, it’s a popular parody account, The real Kaz Hirai would never badmouth a competitor such as Nintendo, obviously
That account can make watching E3 conferences much more fun
Oh, haha, that makes much more sense. It seemed a little overly aggressive ;P
My first thought was that this is what could have happened if Nintendo didn’t go with Phillips way back when.
The added competition: Bad for Nintendo, good for us.
PS4 whose ? Nintendo … LMAO
Imagine if Nintendo had owned PlayStation even today….The PlayStation consoles would be just as unpopular as the Wii U…Or would they?…
LOL, Nintendo can’t make half of the PS4 in 20 years. 😆
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool this made me laugh so hard XD
yes but nintendo want sales of their new device with the refurbished super “mortal kombat” mario bros
Full Circle. History is a funny thing. lol Poor Nintendo Playstation. RIP
lmao! this is awesome. In fact, according to amazon. Most people buy their vita tv’s along with call of duty for xbone lol Glad everyone is doing their research!
