Father buys second-hand Nintendo 3DS that is full of porn

Richard Chester, 46, bought a Nintendo DS for £89 from a pawn shop in Plymouth, Devon. He took it home and got a surprise when he saw 30 explicit images and pornographic videos on the device.

A case of the wife finding the porn on his 3DS and him trying to pass the blame onto the previous owner!

[MRMagoo123]

he did buy it from a pawn store ......

I know it's a different word but it is still pretty funny when you read it

[donthate]

I don't. It's obvious pawn shop will just sell it to you as is. Why is the father surprised? Heck, why is this even news?

[TFJWM]

@donthate Ya not news at all. It is just like buying any storage device that isn't wiped...

It was prob stolen anyway that is why the owner didn't factory reset it

[nix]

well... imagine the time the kid saved on downloading/copying.

Porn is nothing but Animal Planet documentary with humans.

[darthv72]

I bought a 3DS XL at a pawn shop for $90 and I found no porn on it. I feel cheated now :(

[PoSTedUP]

nintendo's hand held 3 D'S

[NXSwitch]

The father could have taken steps to clean swipe the data for a fresh start. Or maybe returned it back to ask for a refund/get help on how to format the data. But he wanted clicks as I bet his kids use other devices at home to look at porn.

[Junior4565]

Even when I aunt buys things from auctions she wipes them down with this saying "because people are frisky and its just common sense"

[nitus10]

It is kinda funny when the guy says that the second hand 3DS had over "30 explicit images and hardcore videos". How did he determine that? 😉

[Deadpooled]

jerking off to each one?

[Deadpooled]

As soon as i read the title I knew it was going to be from the Daily Mail lmao

[MegaRay]

Im sure I read this article before lol

[Segata]

Yeah I think this happened to GS with PSP way way way back when.

[RosweeSon]

It's away in the "Cupboard" hope he wiped it down after he used it.

[mkis007]

For when your first hand gets tired

[Sykoticz]

Sticky keys

[Bahamut-Shin]

I like to think that the previus owner filled it with porn right before selling it, just for laughs.

[crazychris4124]

People are disgusting! Who downloads porn?? Stream it, less evidence

[Skate-AK]

Lol. I also feel like this is some prank by who ever sold it to the pawn shop.

[Aleithian]

So...it was his lucky day then.

[JustInTlME]

Should be thanking the previous owner. A subscription to Bang Bros aint cheap...

[jasonpugh]

It's used and at a pawn shop. Don't be surprised. Just check all used devices before giving them to your kids. Not sure how an article gets made about this. Kinda common sense which I know is lacking in most people.

[PhoenixUp]

The headline says 3DS, but the opening sentence says DS.

Make up your mind!

[Deadpooled]

Daily Mail proofreading at it's finest

[IceKoldKilla]

Less work. Free porn. FBI cant get you for illegally downloading. Just keep the receipt and proof it was like that.

[IceKoldKilla]

DailyMail, ugh.

[rocketpanda]

Typical Dailymail style, show the person or benefit family in the article looking slightly annoyed. Seriously, who the hell goes to the papers reporting that they found some porn on a device? Is it because they are trying to pass it off as an only kids device? God forbid kids have access to such images, even though most seem to have smartphones and tablets these days.

I bet this bloke cracked a few off before reporting it.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

That last sentence you wrote made me lol until I hurt.. good form :3

[NohansenBoy]

k, so delete it.

[Soldierone]

Don't you need external storage for a 3DS?

[XeyedGamer]

I totally thought I deleted everything. My bad

[audiocafe]

haha

[conanlifts]

The real question is whether he preferred it with the 3d slider on or off.
I think nintendo missed the boat though. Imagine the achievements you could get with this content and a wii mote.

[iTechHeads]

That's what you get for being cheap.

[SynestheticRoar]

Look at his face. He's suspect.

[WeAreLegion]

It's nice to see an uplifting story on N4G for a change.

[tdogg06051991]

Ha the porn is the problem here? Every parent should know the effect of 3D images on younger kids, so the REAL irresponsible thing is buying the 3DS. http://www.smh.com.au/natio...

[mch2011uk]

Then delete it

[Kerppamaister]

Father buys second hand 3DS for his son, finds out the 3DS is full of porn, keeps 3DS. What's the problem here?

[dennigo]

omg this is hot news let's definatly put this on n4g ..........

[Kallisti]

Would've been funnier if it had been 69 explicit images and pornographic videos

[Drithe]

Delete it and move on. Jesus people make something out of nothing to make a buck. OMG WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN!

[mEATgrinder]

Tell me you didnt think he had a quick one off the wrist

[Segata]

Didn't this happen with a original DS and PSP at Gamestop MANY years ago? Check it in the store before you buy. Jeez people. Do you not test the merch before you buy? Wipe it before you give it to anyone

[Lon3wolf]

Pawn porn.

[wars1986]

who tf downloads porn lol stream it off the hamster.

[Tzuno]

This is old news, i saw one alike if not the same months ago.

[DivineAssault]

This happened before at a walmart

[TRS_Gear]

Video Game "news"

[Theparanerds]

This is the third time i've seen these stories. These aren't stories that need to be shared. This has nothing to do with Nintendo or the console. This is just a thing that happens. The Dailymail will run with this and give Nintendo a bad name, or at least try to.

[NerveGearneeded]

"Mr Chester, who is currently unemployed"

lots of free time and unexpected porn whats he complaining about.

[mochachino]

I love these stories, I'll be sure to leave porn on every device that I decide to trade-in.

[SuperbVillain]

nice, score for pops

[kurochi]

Jackpot???

[sullynathan]

he better bust all kinds of nuts to those explicit images.

[gangsta_red]

Jackpot!

[TheCommentator]

Brings new meaning to the term handheld.

[its_JEFF]

When asked if he would be deleting said content, Mr Chester replied "and throw away all the time the previous owner spent searching, curating, and downloading the content, are you mad? that would be tantamount to spiting in his face. I would never!"
haha

[lizard81288]

I bet his son was...excited about it....

[zombie78rock]

you DO NOT buy electronics from a pawn store I beet they have HISSING cock roaches. crawling in the house now!!

[TheJacksonRGN]

This has happened before. A few years ago. Yawn news!

[Artemus]

Might wanna consider putting on some rubber gloves before touching that 3DS from now on.

[Dee_91]

Thats what I call.....
Jackpot

[mokkeyrg2]

loool

[3-4-5]

* Ahh another UK article trying to bash Nintendo somehow.

[Jag-T1000]

Consider yourself lucky.

[jojo319]

"Father is really lucky"

[Fist4achin]

I wonder if the porn was 3d?

[NXSwitch]

2 things. 1st the seller at the pawn shop knew about it because maybe he or she visited porn on it. 2nd this person must be a sjw that is out to end the 3ds so smart phones can take over the rest of the market by spreading bad images of Nin on the net.
