I really hope the Shearer thing is an aprils fool. It's such a huge mistake.

In other news, my girlfriend told me she was pregnant. It's an oldy but a goody.

I called it Steel... I called it.

IGN's this year's SSBB gore thing isn't nearly as good as Zelda trailer from last year but the end of the video was well done.

This is going to be hard to top. Japanese website Akiba Blog has run a post saying that Dragon Quest IX went on sale.

According to Akiba Blog, over two-thousand people lined up at midnight today for DQIX. Midnight. Today. Today is April 1, and Dragon Quest IX is slated for release this July.

Very cruel considering the number of times Dragon Quest IX has been delayed — and how many Japanese gamers are impatiently waiting for it.

Still, don't be surprised if frazzled individuals are running around Akihabara, frantically looking for DQIX. If you happen to see any, be sure to let them know the game is sold out and new shipments are expected shortly.

This is just one of many April Fools jokes circulating on the Japanese internet. Website Canned Dogs has a great round-up of today's pranks. Stand outs include a Queen's Blade live action flick, SNK announcing Star Radish and a retro version iDOLM@STER.

Hahahahahahaha.

Okay, that was fucking awesome. Best idea ever to draw out millions of DQ fans only to say April Fools. Best fucking thing ever! XD
