Gnirfleo is online right now, he is deleting comments. I'm not saying it's real, I'm just saying check his blog today. He may post something "new" or an excuse for why he hasn't released his bricker yet.
 
Even if it is fake, this isn't even a good prank. Better things could have been faked than web browsing. I wouldn't call anyone who believed this dumb.
 
he must be a fake how would you work a browser like a book if theres only one side of touch screen, it would mean only one side of click able links


The Opera DS browser has a view option that allows you to have the image spread over the 2 screens. You just drag the link etc over onto the touchscreen to interact with it. So, it is possible though I'm not holding my breath on this one!
 
Hahaha, this is a throwback to the DS Linkup days

When two 15 year olds made a entire site that actually looked kinda legit, saying they were tunneling the DS. This was before Mario Kart DS came out. It was feburary/march of 2005. Then he put this little update up on April 1st:

Completely hilarious

And i'll say it again, as I have said ever since owiki was announced. If opera can't come up with a browser that is fully functional and fast, how can one guy working on a project solo?

Good point, and how can they produce it so fast, not knowing code like opera does.
 
Well, of course it's fake, what else did you expect?

On the other hand, Okiwi is pretty much real, but without extra RAM also unuseful.
DSOrganize 2.7 will also feature a basic browser, however that's as far as it goes with Internet on a DS.

Whoever is behind Gnirfleo is a loser. Quite clearly they're pissed that people with an IQ over 10 figured out it was a hoax and ruined it. The latest update is just pitiful. What a joke. And there's STILL people saying "I knew it wasn't fake!" THERE IS STILL NOTHING RELEASED! Dear god how can people be that stupid? Honestly, people like that make my brain bleed...

As for why folk want a browser... Well some people probably can't afford Opera. Plus Opera is fixed. That's all you're getting. A homebrew one would be constantly developed.

Regardess, if DSO just adds form support and gets a bit more stable (it crashes every 2-3 pages for me on my M3CF) I'll be happy. Was reading bash.org in bed last night. THAT was cool.

But I'll probably pick up Opera when it's released here in Canada. Though I have a horrible feeling, like everything else here these days, it'll be the Lite version only, and I can't exactly what the difference was. Hope it will work on the old style DS, since that's what I have. (And I can't remember the difference now.) I'd love a DS Lite, but that just ain't gonna happen, so hopefully Opera isn't going to screw me over.

I cringe at those comments. "Ohhhh please send me a copy, I be good." Like hell he will. Some people are just too gullible online. I'm tempted to send them one of those "I'm a Nigerian price" emails.

The difference between the DSphat and DSlite versions of the Opera browser is the size of the memory pak that goes in the GBA port. The DSphat version is universal, but the DSlite version will only work in the lite because the cart is smaller.
 
Cock... That's what I was afraid of. Well if they only release the Lite version in the US market, I'm screwed then. Peachy... *sigh* There you go, another reason a homebrew browser is important.

Just reading Gnirfleo's site again and damn, the people on there are dense. Tons of people posting their email addresses begging for the non-existent file to be sent to them. Spam harvesters must be having a field day... It's just staggering the people still believe. ANd now there's another. NDSMaxBrowser that is quite obviously another fake. And people are believing that too.

You could go to these people and do the Three Card Monte trick in front of them, with the cards face up, and they'd still fail to find the queen.
 
Sending the NDS file to a few people is a great excuse. Those who don't receive it will think it's still real and that they just weren't the chosen ones, and Gnirfleo can continue to perpetuate the myth that he actually made the program and his con job will continue forever.

If a few people do receive it, in due time everyone should have it, and if everyone has only heard of people who got it and not seen a real proof of it ever working, then probability lends towards it being fake.
 
Hah, I guess all is left is the question if we should call Gnirfleo a dumbass idiot for fooling us all or a little genious .. for fooling us all. heh

either way, the jokes old now and his newest blog entry sucks.

I'm sorry for not releasing the browser. I have other things on my mind right now. I will give another developer some rights to post on this blog as soon as she has time.

PS: I might send the NDS file to some people, but I'm still thinking about that. They will let you know if it's fake or not.

Seems to be fake after all.....
