Come on now, if it really had been an April Fools joke by Nintendo it would have been pretty lame. You're supposed to play the joke on April Fools, not a damn week or two before it. That'd be like saying "Ha! Duke Nukem Forever was an April Fools joke! We so got you 15 years ago!"

Awww, fuck you Costello....

It seems GBAtemp is fooling us all. Not Nintendo.

Go and click the link that's posted in the article on the homepage.

I decided to listen to other people for once, and I figured it out quick too... about 30 seconds after I posted.

Always fun to have these and i salute the yearly tradition but yeah, never fell for it for even one second. I was expecting it of course, but Nintendo would NEVER prank their customers like that EVER. Nice try though, hope a more believable one comes next year. Surprised if anyone fell for it.

I fell for it until I clicked on the link. I'm so glad this was nothing but a joke. I am looking forward to the Nintendo 3DS.

I'm still waiting for some kind of "we're taking the site offline for good due to cease and desist letters". Complete with a blank homepage and the gbatemp logo shedding a tear. And yet, put a tiny little gbatemp logo in the bottom right for those who are smart enough and don't fall for it to make it to the real portal saying APRIL FOOLS! Next year Costello? Eh?
