Lots of silly shit is popping up now. If you want to make a thread for a particularly high effort joke, mark that it is an April Fools thing clearly. Otherwise just dump all the curious garbage that isn't worth a thread in here.

No one likes being a fool. Don't try to fool other people here, or you'll be the banned fool. Now I'm going back to Zelda. Bye.

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD THEMED JELLY BEANS ADDED TO MY NINTENDO

Nintendo has announced its first physical giveaway on My Nintendo. We haven’t had one of these since Nintendo dumped Club Nintendo!

Cooking is a huge part of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Nintendo are bringing all the best goods you can cook up in the game, in jelly bean form. There’s Toasty Hylian Shrooms, Hearty Meat & Mushroom Skewer, Energizing Honeyed Apple and of course there’s Dubious Food bean as well. There’s even some more… wilder ones.

Most importantly there’s also one single bean in each box that has the flavour of a Nintendo Switch cartridge. It’ll look just like a regular bean so watch out. Here’s all the flavours included;

The beans on My Nintendo will set you back 1417 Gold Coins, that’s pretty pricey. They will be available on My Nintendo all around the world on April 1st.


The sad thing is, that I actually want this. lol
 
Just as a note, MEGATONS almost NEVER drop on a weekend. So it should be pretty easy to dismiss any megatons dropped on a Saturday as an April Fools

Does anyone know of any gaming April Fools jokes that eventually actually became games?

Google map's pokemon joke being the basis for Pokemon Go is the only one I can think of

TH IS THIS TIS IST JUT.

THIS IS WAY TOO MUCH FUCKING EFFORT FOR AN APRIL FOOL's JOKE, GODDAMN IT.

This has to be a tech demo that they developed recently, but probably canceled?

This has to release either way. LET'S GET THIS THING TO KICKSTARTER!

The Jelly Beans actually are quite an interesting idea, I'd bet we would all love some game flavored jelly beans, however it's clearly fake because they would have a Switch-Cartridge-Flavor one in it if it was real.
