#AprilsFool 2019 recap

Not a lot of great funny April's Fool, this year. At least I haven't seen any remarkable ones.

Aside from...

A fun SHAZAM! teaser trolling AQUAMAN fans:



A fanmade fake Splatoon spinoff. A great well-made "Splatoon Island" DLC campaign, that had so much work put into it it actually seems realistic. Fantastically put together by Mike Inel:



I'd buy that!

And the Tekken team announcing a fake new DLC, HARADA himself!!!

A new champion is about to enter the King of Iron Fist Tournament! By popular demand, #TEKKEN 7’s very own Director @Harada_TEKKEN will step into the ring for some epic showdowns. Can you guess who he will side with in the war to settle the Mishima feud?

I know this is supposedly a fun goofy joke... but I could totally see this as real DLC. I'm sure fans (myself included) would love it. And, hey, it's not a goofier guest than, say, Negan or Noctis!

You win this year Tekken. And I only find the fan-made Splatoon one better by a small margin because the Tekken crew didn't make a video and just some fake screenshots.

#GamingNEWS Introducing... the Nintendo Switch!?

It's official!

Nintendo has officially announced their new system, the successor to the Wii U is already here! (Thanks "Wii U"!). And all the rumors are finally confirmed...

Introducing... the Nintendo Switch! Which is going to be an hybrid portable/home system console, Nintendo completely reimagining home gaming!

Their presentation even confirmed a ton of third party developers and a look at various proprieties like Mario, Splatoon and even Skyrim (!) to reassure hardcore gamers. Check this out!



Honestly?! I'm not really sold. At all. (Hey! I'm currently playing through both a Dreamcast and a PS2 title, I'm old school!) But the unveiling of this new system seems to be getting a lot of positive reception so far, at least from what I've seen online.

Wait and see...

#Ad - Wii U - Splatoon "Squid Kid" TV Commercial

Man.. that's the official ad for Splatoon in America?



It's... really bad. Like annoying-bad. Good thing the game's great!

#Gaming NEWS! New Splatoon gameplay trailer

Remember the upcoming Wii U game Splatoon? A brand new IP from Nintendo - that doesn't happen often these days!

Since the game's finally coming up soon, there's been a bit more information and trailers recently.

Here's a fun look at how fun painting-stuff-the-videogame seems to be:
