ROFL! That was a relief!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO
OLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLZ!!!!!!!
I already expressed that I would not purchase a game system when the DSi just came out!
Not only is the joke on many Nintendo fans but Nintendo themselves!
They may have scared and/or provoked Microsoft and Sony to actually create/release new handhelds! That sure would be funny!
Oh, but that 3D "find the hidden object" game is real, the cart uses an accelerometer much like Kirby Tilt 'n Tumble...so...NO EMULATION 4 U!
->Now you can plainly see why I pirate Nintendo games and no longer purchase them, it encourages this kind of behavior.
GAYYAAHH!!
I got fooled! What would have made this work is if GBATemp said that they have video proof of Myamoto stating it was a joke on Youtube and it links to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ LOLOLOLOL!!

Its not as bad move by Nintendo. It's quite funny. Funniest because of those who get 'owned' the worse by the joke. (ie this site. lol) Plus the score is still ours. lol

Actually, the April Fool's Day joke is the idea of Wii third-party success. Zing.
I'm so clever. Patting myself on the back in 5 seconds.

Aww man, totally got me. Though really, I kinda doubted they would release something this big just to have it be a prank. Nice job though.

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
