Ten April Fools' items that would break Wii Fanboy's heart
Well, it's that magical day of the year again where the internet lights on fire with speculation and fake news. April Fools' Day often strikes the gaming sector hard, with fake announcements and "leaks" running wild for a 24-hour period. Well, we're taking action.
What we've done is compile a list of the 10 things that would absolutely break our hearts if we read them on this fine first day of April. Why? Well, why not? So head on through and check out our list, starting from the least severe on to something that would surely kill us if we read it. Oh, and tell us some of the things that would break your heart if someone tried to report them as true today while you're at it!

The only one that broke me was #6...
#1 I respect the Wii Friend Code. I've been online too long with annoying 14-year-olds, short-tempered adults, and look-downers... The Wii Friend Code is a blessing in disguise.
#2 ...so? Why would a highly-graphical game go to the Wii? - (The Wii cares not)- If anything, they should make another version of RE only for the Wii (Other than RE:OC)...
#3 Meh... I can wait to see if anything happens...
#4 It's not like it won't be able to in the future.
#5 ...I guess, but I don't play Rock Band. :(
#6 ... :((( I WISH!
#7 Meh, mine's just fine for now
#8 I'm not out of space just yet
#9 I can wait
#10 *shrugs* I've seen better games go without a sequel... it'd be nice though
You know what'd be a heartbreaker? Voice Chat.
I don't need it, but a lotta' people do.
Oh oh oh, even worse... ultimate connectivity... the ability to connect to any wireless device and make use of it. Why? Because the Wii's just too cool for itself... O_o

If they release a Wii 1.5 in the next year of two I'll probably buy an 360. We don't want to see Nintendo take the Sega route of ditching newly released hardware before their time. Do we?
And I'd love a NMH sequel. I'd do many things for a sequel. Many things.

The Rock Band one is especially heart breaking. I want that downloadable content! I guess this is related to the hard drive.
Besides No More Heroes and Zelda, I'm eager for news that Red Steel 2 will greatly improve on the first game. VERY eager. Don't play with my heart today.

I agree with Soshikitai, most of these seem a bit too far out
Except for the HardDrive one, there have been hints about that, even in the face of Nintendo's official denials, floating about

# 6 was a joke ?!?!? i read somewhere about 5 days ago that there was going to be a DLC channel for SSBB and Zelda and stuff ... :(( :(( :(( a rumour on http://www.n4g.com/wii/ ... darn it

And you seriously believed it? *sigh*

Ooh... here's some good let-downs I made up:
-That fly-swatting game from Mario Paint, as a cheap Wii Ware game ... (what? am I the only one who would get that?)
-Or even simpler: Mario Paint for the Virtual Console, with WiFi trade ability
-though not Wii: SSBB for DS! ... yeah, it'd be limited, but it'd be SO fun for a handheld tournament
-Wii being able to use the DS as a WiFi extender! (because I so need that sometimes)
-N64 controller for the Wii (for those of you who still love it)
And er... that's all I've got for now.
SoshiKitai @ Apr 1st 2008 7:23PM
OH OH OH... and my gf said a really good one:
-Earthbound for the Virtual Console out THIS WEEK! ZOMG!
Mr Khan @ Apr 1st 2008 8:05PM
Mother Compilation for DS: Mothers 1, 2, & 3 all on one cart and localized
That would be a soul-crusher
