My OperaApril Foo'
Sunday, April 1, 2007 12:53:25 PM
For April Fools', the site I work at (http://www.witendofi.com), a Nintendo WiFi Connection site, has dressed up as an Xbox fan site.
The site has over 10,000 members, most with DSes and many with Wiis. A few are totally shocked, and slightly angry, and one moderator has threatened to leae the site (not sure if he's joking or not, but I think he is now that I think about it).
We've changed everything around. There are word censors on the forums, turning Wii into Xbox 360 and DS into Xbox. Game forums' names have been changed: Mario Kart DS has become Halo, StarFox command has become Star Wars KOTOR II, and so on.
The site used to be a blue-orange-white mix. Now it's a green-silver-white mix.
WiTendoFi's famous Wificards (like Microsofts gamertags, but for Wii and DS) have changed their look to that of the Xbox's gamertags. Also, on the wificards, admins and mods had little tags that said 'Administrator' or 'Moderator'. We've changed these (I'm 'Master Chief', but most others are real Microsoft developer types, not characters).
I also help run an unoffcial blog for WitendoFi, at http://www.thehappyrobot.com/blog/. It's also made the change.

I was kind of hoping Opera Community would've turned into Explorer Community or something... but at least I did my part and changed my blog into something else
