April Fools! Today will actually be great :3

For me, the worst thing about April Fool's day is that Think Geek shut down in...2019? They always had a great joke products on the front page, and every once in a while they'd actually make and sell some of them.

Think Geek shut down? Man it's been 5 years and I didn't even notice

2019 was 5 years ago?

I almost got got by the Palworld one that came out late yesterday. They are Japanese so it caught me off guard when it wasn't April 01 for me yet.

IGN did one about Nintendo announcing a Virtual Boy Pro that you slot a Switch into a la Google Cardboard. That one almost got me, until I got deeper into the article and saw some of the more ridiculous quotes.

But they did literally already do that with the Switch, with the Labo VR kit. I remember even seeing some bits in Odyssey that used it IIRC.
