Look at this monstrosity. Just look at it. Virtual tat just doesn't get any worse than this, does it? Spotted on the North American PlayStation Store by the ever-aware Wario64, this disgusting dynamic PlayStation 4 theme is quite possibly the worst that's ever been made available. Quite the achievement when you look at some of the other horrors currently for sale.
For those lucky enough to not know what 'covfefe' refers to, allow us the displeasure of explaining. The president of the United States recently tweeted the nonexistent word - obviously some sort of typo - and people quickly turned it into an insufferable internet meme. It did the rounds for about a day and a half before everyone got really sick of seeing it.
And now, the since-deleted tweet forms the basis for a premium PlayStation 4 dynamic theme.
The world we live in...

Thank god we get less selections for themes in the EU.
Why would anybody want to pay money for this?
...........
@JoeBlogs you're my hero.
The North American PSN is overrun with lazy garbage like this.
Sweet, buying this when I get home.
This is something else.
What dose this word mean
This is like the ringtone ads we used to get in the early noughties. Utter trash.
Oh my god wow what in the hell is that?
Then again, PS3 had RAGE Comics and Nyan Cat so...hooray!
This is actually quite funny. Even more amusing is I feel it's likely there will be people who actually buy it.
@adf86 We have some terrible one here to. The best thing would be if every theme had a example some are downright a scam.
Beautiful. Will compliment the figet spinners on my PS4 nicely.
At last, something to replace my dynamic bacon theme.
Replace covfefe with supercharged and BOOM! Instant PS4 Pro premium theme!
Terrible article. FAKE NEWS. Just Sad.
To be fair, the aesthetics of the theme are fairly classy.
I'm not actually as offended by the theme itself as I am by it being published by an entity named "Top Rated." Y'know, so it shows up in the store as
Covfefe Dynamic Theme
Top Rated
Dynamic Theme | Released Jun 16, 2017.
I've never understood why people pay for themes & wallpapers anyway regardless of how good they are, I bought my PS4 to play games on not study a picture...
@Rudy_Manchego I literally LOL'ed. +1
@ZurapiiYohane it was obvious in context. He was trying to type coverage and passed out.
@Mega-Gazz Thanks to respected gamer Mega-Gazz for endorsement. Make Sony great again.
(Seriously, I could do this all day).
It's fine. I've got a Persona 5 theme that I really don't see leaving anytime soon.
...words fail me.
Well, glad to know for sure now what political leanings PlayStation has (I think both the extreme left and far right are equally insane) and frankly, it does annoy me. They can do crap like this but I STILL can't get a Lara Croft Rise of the Tomb Raider avatar? Screw off.
Presumably it's "disgusting" because it's related to Trump? Because other than not being very good, I don't see what's wrong with it.
Nintendo has lots of problems but I appreciate that only game devs can release themes instead of this... or the neogaf theme, or the 9gag theme, or the poop emoji theme, or just 99% of this crap.
With custom themes and Future Tone's photo feature I don't think I will ever need any theme, paid or not.
"Misunderestimated" still wins the prize for US President made up word though.
On the one hand, I love that folks are relentlessly making fun of President Trump. On the other hand, this looks like crap someone made in 20 minutes for a school project.
This too shall pass
I heard the halloween-type theme for October is going to be a large picture of Trump...hey, that would be scary enough, especially if Hillary was also shown in it!!!
@KitsuneNight just make new words up, then!
Hardly news worthy.
Online store in selling unwanted tat shocker.
This is what the inside of Donald Trump's mind looks like
Although this is not great the selection of themes and avatars is poor on the EU store. Also some of the avatars they get free we pay for.
the main question is, "why are people buying tat like this anyway now the PS4 has a custom background function"
you shouldn't need to buy a theme again really
