April Fools Day and games go hand and hand. Every year games media has a field day making up April Fools Jokes beginning back in the 90's with stuff like the Sheng Long cheat code in Street Fighter 2 or the infamous Tomb Raider nude code all the way to present with the phony Legend of Zelda Movie Trailer or fake Nintendo Direct videos like: "Everything coming to Switch". Starting with old retro magazines like Electronic Gaming Monthly ( EGM ), Nintendo Power, GamePro ( LamePro ) all the way to IGN, this is a look at some of the most memorable gaming April Fools Pranks of the past.
