Luckily I was able to grab this before the Magic Box link got corrupted.

Good one Nemo! Even after reading JP's PS2 thread, I still fell for this.

That would be a vicinity attack. "Dylan Punch!!!"

Apologies in advance, Dylan1CC.

Since I think April Fool's joke crap is the lowest of the low as well, perhaps everyone would enjoy Japanese Gaming's only April Fool's joke.

Has nothing to do with shmups, but in the spirit of this painful thread, it might lighten some spirits.

If Nemo had been really mean about it, that pic he linked to would've been of an amputated penis.

Hah. Some of the responses prove just how quickly people here believe assertions with no evidence. And a joke playing on people's game fantasies "painful"? Wow, sensitive.

It was a great joke - especially the "magic-box" pic link. It was an obvious joke even before opening the thread, but I was curious about the link and clicked it, realizing a bit late that the link was different from the link title...haha...

That was great, Nemo!

(Kind of a wake-up call, too. I'm a huge sucker.)

That mockup PS2 cover art does look good, though.

fell for it too, because i read it today (the 2nd). which is apparently the day it was posted?

fucker. i got excited for this. kinda funny now, but you should have seen me for the 30 seconds before it set in. i was pretty much my same ole jolly self.

"it'd probably be a crap port, like the GWG port?"

That's totally different; GWG port was Taito's first experience porting a Type-X game to the PS2, and this game is not a Type-X game.

And calling people "girls" when they get ticked over a false announcement of a shmup port is hardly appropriate. They're were plenty of angry folks here back when the fake GWG cover made it's appearance. Just being sad that it's not true doesn't make someone a "girl"; lets not start machismo on this board.

It's amazing how anal people will get over a joke, especially a joke about a game.

dave4shmups · Post by **dave4shmups** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 7:25 pm

This was a joke about a game that many would like to see a home port of. Still, that fake cover looks exactly like what Cave would choose if this game ever does.

Perhaps Kosh and I did get too anal, but that's no reason to resort to insults like calling people "girls". That's nothing more then machismo crap; and I call it like I see it, and that's my last post on this stupid, outdated thread.

yojo! · Post by **yojo!** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:47 pm

Nemo, that was plain stupid. You re an Ass#@!%

Rob · Post by **Rob** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 9:29 pm

Nah, Nemo's cool.

Since it's a day old it'd probably be a good idea to lock it now. I mean, who really cares about Mushihimesama when Trizeal is out in a few days?

Quite a few people actualy, but I agree. Better lock it now before more forum members will be out for Neo's blood.

Nemo · Post by **Nemo** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 11:19 pm

Wait, the link doesn't work??

I don't get it

April fooled ya!

My apologies to the people whose hearts exploded the instant their excited fingers clicked the link, but it's all in fun and if it wasn't semi-believable it would have been lame. So I think it's time for a >GROUP HUG<.

umi · Post by **umi** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 11:22 pm

The only reason I could think of for people here acting like girls just because someone pulls a great April Fool's Joke is that... somewhere, sometime in their dank, dark childhood... someone pulled a joke that scarred them for life. Or some old guy at the park asked them to sit on his knee... who knows.

It's funny that people seem to literally be getting angry (not just sad) :P I hope life doesn't throw any real misfortunes their way.

p.s. Have you watched the videos (or played the game)? Do you realize how many bullets Mushi throws at you? Trust me, I hope they CAN port the game WELL to PS2. That would be awesome.

Argggg.... You got me, Nemo!

Cigs, that mockup boxart in your post is brilliant. Hopefully the day will come when I see something similar come in a UPS box from NCS- for real.

Darkcomet72 · Post by **Darkcomet72** » Sun Apr 03, 2005 3:30 am

I don't really hate April fools day, but Last years joke was Much Better.

This one is C+ at best...

Perfect joke Nemo...

At least the Mods didn't pull this Text-Filter joke on April Fool's

Super Laydock · Post by **Super Laydock** » Sun Apr 03, 2005 3:52 pm

Well I fell for it before clicking that link...

I thought it was quite hilarious!

And another supportive vote for the great April 1st joke from Nemo!
People complaining: get a life and don't be TOO serious!

PsikyoPshumpPshooterP · Sun Apr 03, 2005 3:57 pm

It was funny but let just say what if Nemo was one of the tricked...would it be really that friendly coming from Nemo?

The PS2 has no trouble with "Arrange Mode" in Espgaluda, which also has a butt-load of bullets. I would think it could handle Mushi. Even if they dropped "Maniac Mode" I would be happy.

Blade · Post by **Blade** » Sun Apr 03, 2005 5:04 pm

If it can handle the Warzone stage that was in Zone of Enders 2, it can handle Maniac Mode of Mushihimesama.

And again...

Dandy J:

Wow, Dylan you are really lame.

You know, there are people who post April fools jokes about people dying, and you get pissed because someone posted about a fake port of an arcade game?!

Wow, Dandy J, you are like..so perspectiveless. Making a joke about a fake game port is LAME. Tricking someone into thinking someone died is just plain STUPID. But to each his own.

IlMrm: That would be a vicinity attack. "Dylan Punch!!!"

Apologies in advance, Dylan1CC.

lol

BTW, WHO is that beautiful Japanese girl in your avatar? I have to know.

Your all wussies, I fell for it, clicked the link.. Realized It was a prank and just went on with my life.

Did somebody die?

dave4shmups · Post by **dave4shmups** » Mon Apr 04, 2005 4:10 am

Sorry I took that too seriously Nemo. It's more important, after all, to maintain a good community then it is to try to be "right" all the time.
