Title: April fools - Did anything get you 2026
Post by: BLUEVOODU on April 20, 2026, 03:53:47 PM
I know this is a bit late, but I really did not see much in the way of April fools jokes on or offsite this year.

Honestly, I thought @retro junkie's post about the Neo Geo was going to be a late April fools lol:

* note... I am glad it was not!!

However, for 2026, did you get tripped up on ANY April fools jokes, posts...etc?  If so, what were they?  post it up!

April Fools didn't seem like much of a thing this year. The kids didn't mention anything about it, I didn't see anything at all, my mother didn't call me with some crazy "I saw on Facebook where Elon Musk colonized Jupiter"

All in all, I'm a bit disappointed!

This was the first year that I can recall that it passed without any acknowledgement, no pranks, no jokes. I almost forgot about it and remembered late at night what day it had been.

I'm with you both @targetrasp and @retro junkie - this year has been eerily quiet!  And Not to mention... a New Neo Geo AES product?!  What is this world we live in these days?!  ;D
