Have you checked your calendar recently? Look what today is! Who could have predicted such marvelous technological prowess in this day and age?


I was aware it's April Fools, so was aware this stuff was going to happen. But when I saw above posts saying "wow" and etc, that threw me off so I thought it was genuine =P

Yeah… That's part of the joke. :psyduck: It happens in almost every joke thread here.

Now with more Androidy goodness!

This is an official Cease & Decist notice. Your Android app "Sonic Retro" infringes upon GerbilSoft's "Sonic Retro App" by being almost entirely a carbon-copy clone. You must cease publishing this app and pay damages of $599 US DOLLARS, plus an additional $640 to the Crapp Foundation.

My crack team of expert lawyers stayed up all night formulating a legally-backed, thorough rebuttal to your cease-and-desist notice. I present it to you now.

No one's posted about the obvious hidden feature yet, so I'll give a hint:

Don't know what you are thanking me for, it's literally just the mobile web site with an icon in your launcher.

it makes it quicker to check the site when I'm on the go, because I am lazy? I dunno.

That's, uh, that's pretty sad if you can't just make a bookmark for sonicretro.org. :X

Oh, I could. But you made that a pointless effort. :eng101:
