R4 DS kernel v1.18

[spectral]

If it's an April Fool's joke, whoever had that bright idea needs to have their head fixed. If you don't do an April Fool's joke on April Fool's Day, it's not even funny anymore, it's just stupid. Someone here, and I'm not pointing out any names, may just need to learn how to read a calendar. How am I supposed to take this site as a credible source for my Nintendo-related homebrew news when they're tainting the information with fabrications?

As has been mentioned numerous times already IT WAS APRIL 1ST in Australia, which is where Opium lives. Why should he not use his own timezone just to please you? Why is yours more valid?

In a way this would be a sick joke but it makes sense based on the time zone.

A better april fools would have been to release the kernel....only to have it be a video RICK ROLL on the DS. Keep trying tho.

This is officially a joke!
Just got an e-mail from R4DS that they're still working on the 1.18 kernel

Good joke, Opium

You really got us

LOL dude you've got over 40 posts in this thread & none of them constructive

I agree, this post true or not true its really fu**ed up with your nosense comments!


You must be 8 years old or a really sick boy.

This kind of behave should not be tolerated in gbatemp.

Lighten up, he's just having a bit of fun. If you can't mess about a bit in a practical joke topic, when can you?

 

[DarkSpace]

The thing is that this thread should be removed since it's either fake based on a few posts and because it's (download) not here.

Doesn't bother me because I twigged April Fools before I clicked the thread

It's France

Well then everyone's Poisson d'Avril

It will be tagged as fake after April Fool's day I guess, to leave to place to a real release when it will happen.

April Fools at it's finest!

I was expecting something funnier for April fools, like a fake release of Mario Kart Wii or something like that

It's OK, they've made an attempt at another.

I would be so pissed off if this is an April Fools Day joke.

 

[pilotwangs]

Meh,this aint as good as the Gamespot one,still pretty funny though.

It made me a bit sad that R4 got a fix before cyclo and RTS on top of that. I just read the news and didn't care much to read on, anyway it was way before April 1st here and it still is so I really didn't get it. Not until the CNET news

, now my smile's back, you got served R4 users, cyclo's the s***

A 2203 fix wouldn't hurt at all tho.

 

[SavageWaffle]

April Fools, nothing on this on Official Website.

Tahts not funny ... I hope some people will feel a lot of pain!!

 

[D-Trogh]

Uff.. You almost got me

I've seen all the arguments for this April fools' joke-- that the Internet is international, yadda yadda.

Still doesn't change that fact that this was a cruel and unanticipated joke.

And hey, if US and EUR people are expected to know that it's April 1 in Japan and Aus, then I say the reverse holds true: Jap and Aus people should understand that it's NOT April 1 everywhere, and wait to post a joke.

Also, for anyone who downloaded Oxygen's fake file: Did you not read the thread at all? Dude gets pwned by Opium early on, realizes he got owned and then proceeds to "Oh HAI GUIZ I HAZ IT" to try and make himself feel better.

Pathetic.

Nice april fool's joke, though, totally got me. Just wish it had been something more innocent, not something malicious.
