The internet showed its craziness running with it. Which with some basic checking showed it to be not from the actual site.

Are you saying that screens isn't even from the Nintendo.jp site?

STOP BEING SO VAGUE! Where did you take that screenshot!?

I am a software developer.
I wrote some code to replicate how the site looks.
I took some assets(images) from their site
Put them on my server
Ran my code
Took a screenshot.
Tomorrow(if I survive) I shall post my code if needs be (wife in bed and computer in bedroom) and screenshot the whole browser with my local address in the address bar.... hence why I grabbed a section of the screen (cmd +shift+4) on a Mac and not the whole screen.
Edit.
Why replicate?
So I could play around and send different

I said a few days ago in thread three i was going to send some shit to different places to get them to report it and show how easy it was ..... to which a few said I hope it works...lol

I hesitate to say that anything that reminds people of that movie is better

So it IS a fake. There is no more question about it, IT IS A FAKE!

yeah the song I like but I guess the movie paints meh over time

[DefectiveReject]

Lol what....
I've said its not real... but its also not doctored in Photoshop nor on their site.

[BY2K]

It's a fabrication, an image you did yourself to try and replicate something real and pass it as news.

[Smiles and Cries]

I really need some real news

that pic only confused me because the the 26

that is hopefully when we get a little news, if we are to have a new name which I doubt
it would be on the 26th

[DefectiveReject]

I posted an image.



.... aaaaah forget it.

I mean English in the middle of Japanese. With a logo which shows below it as something else.... also in a game release schedule in a different font.... against 26... which is when we know they are having a briefing...

[-Pyromaniac-]

I don't think the mods give a shit but I'm pretty sure you can get banned for falsifying something without making it obvious.

[udivision]

BY2K is goading you DR. The more this is mentioned , the greater likelihood that someone upstairs will notice. I wouldn't post about it any more if i were you.

[DefectiveReject]

It was clearly obvious to any non demented individual.

If this passed for this don't believe any news anyone posts from Vigil, Namco and a few others next week.

[Christine]

DefectiveReject, that image was in poor taste. It's well established that human beings are biased towards rapid information transmission and against rigorous fact-checking, so whatever point you were trying to make is largely redundant. The information quality is bad enough right now without people actively trying to degrade it.

Please don't do it again.

*waves hand*
These are not the documents you are looking for.

On another note has Tim Cook ACTUALLY been seen at Valve.... or just reportedly so??? ;-)

Apparently, people from Apple are there quite often, asking for advice and such... and nothing comes from it.

You're doing it wrong. You are supposed to open a thread about the "Steamed Apple Box" being basically confirmed :o

[Gospel]

Damn, they got 'em :/

[Log4Girlz]

Ouch, I wonder how long a punishment this carries.

[Hero of Legend]

And DetectiveReject is gone, no surprise why. I'm shocked he couldn't see how bad of an idea this was. The rules aren't hours of reading worth, it wasn't hard to miss the fact that you shouldn't create rumors and make them as facts and try to spread it for shits and giggles, that's called taking advantage of people's need for info, and trying to look like some big hero. But why, what could he have benefited from this?

This is like WiiWillRockYou when he made the phony Layton NOA Twitter account.

[-Pyromaniac-]

I guess they do give a shit lol. They've always been strict on this stuff though. I got banned the first time I ever made a topic because I forgot to post (rumour) even though I edited it in 1 minute later.

Good times.

[Anth0ny]

[duckroll]

He won't be around during E3 at least.

[BY2K]

He had it coming. That's all I'll say.

He won't be around during E3 at least.

Oh snap.

[udivision]

<_<
>_>
Good riddance. As diplomatic as I was trying to be in this last page I can't say that I didn't want this to happen.
I'm still unimpressed with all the people who ate it up though.

[ASIS]

Oh wow, it seems like this thread is moving faster with each version :/. Finishing 10% of the thread in mere days is crazy!

Anyway, anything interesting happening? Other than the DetectiveReject fiasco of course.

[BY2K]

Well, there was a bit of a scene going on with me and others trying to argue with someone that doesn't completely understand what a fake is.

[EviLore]

Upgrading to perm.

That seems rather harsh.
The ban was inevitable, but I don't think that wishing it to happen is all the prudent.

Though, I agree. How anyone thought it was real is just...

Upgrading to perm.

Damn...

[Shurayuki]

Upgrading to perm.

And I was just about to say "a perm wouldn't actually be harsher than that".
The ranks are thinning *pours one out*

[Vinci]

Upgrading to perm.

DAMN

And this is one reason why I just respond to stuff on this forum. Not taking any chances. Haha.

[SmithnCo]

Woah. The banhammer falls swiftly.

[BY2K]

To be honest, if he had taken the time to put it in Japanese, it could have been pretty convincing.

Upgrading to perm.

Ouch.

[axisofweevils]

While you're here, mods, can you please close the third thread.... ?

[AceBandage]

Well, DefectiveReject, if you're reading this. Good luck man.
=/

[Diablos54]

Ouch, that's what you get for creating fake news I suppose.

And some people thought he was safe.

Fake Edit: And now perma'd? This is why I don't fuck around on GAF!

[lordfroakie]

Awesome! The go..mods have listen!

[-Pyromaniac-]

Upgrading to perm.

lol that post plus your avatar made that funnier and more sinister than it really should have been. I am now ashamed of myself for giggling, poor guy.

Anyway does anyone know when the 26th thing is exactly? Is that on the same day for us as them? 1 day earlier here? I always get confused with japan time.

[Shurayuki]

To be honest, if he had taken the time to put it in Japanese, it could have been pretty convincing.

It would have made even less sense then.

Really? that's a harsh way to go...

At least Uber had an amazing show when he went....actually will he be back? In the light of this...

[BurntPork]

It would be late on the 25th/early 26th for us. Not sure of the exact time.

[-Pyromaniac-]

they're ahead of us by 12 hours or something right? So it would be late 25th I think...but I guess we wont know if there is any info unless that guy on twitter live tweets the thing. I think that's how we got everything last time.

[SmithnCo]

I think it's an earnings presentation? I refuse to get hyped for it.

[Anth0ny]

I think it's an earnings presentation? I refuse to get hyped for it.

Last time around we got a pretty solid amount of information. I think we'll get a few juicy tidbits this time around as well.

[AceBandage]

I think it's an earnings presentation? I refuse to get hyped for it.

They'll also hype up investors as to why they should be excited for the coming year.
Won't be anything big, but there will be something.
