Such things always remember myself about Gamespot's April Fool's Joke of 2006, where a fake analyst explained in detail why the Wii would succeed. It go laughed off for about 250 posts and then came the release... and the following 150 posts where mostly about lauging off those guys who where laughing before launch. Too sad it's comment section doesn' exist anymore, was always a great read. The best part: Every single point of the fake analyst did come true at some point during the Wii's lifespan - exept that they didn't take until 2010 to become market leaders |
I remember the ultimate irony in that article was the Chrono Trigger comment as the Wii eventually got CT on the VC, Gamespot for the good part of 7 years got destroyed over the article as not only was it an unprofessional article but a heavily fanboyish one. The comments section can still be read if you click the comments button.
