I love this website and the wealth of knowledge it contains. When I decided to pay a visit guess what they had on the front page.

The Console, It Is A-Changin'
The Nintendo Revolution
Nintendo’s next-gen console will feature dual processors, wireless connectivity and controllers that you rub. That’s right –- we said "rub."

:lol
 
Anyone else taking the day off from surfing the net on April 1? I sure as hell am. This place is gonna be unbearable.

True, but then you'd miss the ridiculous, can't-bet-true-yet-it-really-is news like Square and Enix merging!
 
I really liked this site but I guess every one has their earth decending fiery crashing down fall once in a while.

Gyroscopic, tilt-sensing, track ball and pressure sensitive controllers.

Their Revolution controller mock up; just painful. If Nintendo or anyone hired the same "Artist" that designed those mock ups then what ever they come up with deserves to fail.

its going to be hilarious, especially if we get topics like "Nintendo to pull out of console race, revolution abandoned". This place will explode:D
 
I believed this story when I first started reading it...

I remember being really pissed off about it and wondering why they would go about replacing the N64-DD... I didn't really think much about the storage and space, probably didn't even think that way, I just saw the $400 price at the bottom and was outraged...

thank God it was fake...

blame the Covenant, it's made with their technology, apparently :lol
 
Only good thing that came from that article is that I realized Nintendo should use the Beatles' "Revolution" to market the console.
 
The use of purple is kind of funny. Nintendo would have to be insane to go that route again (though the PS3 mockup on the site also uses purple). And obviously a revolution in gaming means it has to look weird. I think the real Revolution will actually look more 'ordinary' than GameCube (if you could ever call GameCube ordinary).
