RPG Maker 2000 Value Released!

[Milennin]

I had a feeling this was fake. I'd instantly buy this if it was real. I love RPG Maker 2000/2003, and would gladly pay for it.

 

[Sharm]

Ah, I remember when all the tutorials for tile sets were about how to make tiles for this.  Back when the internet was young and I had no idea how to pixel art!

 

[B.Ultimus]

Why you do this.  ;-;

[Panda]

Oh, well played. Well played.

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

[Seacliff]

Oh my gosh! I tried it on Linux and it WORKED!

 

[ShinGamix]

OMG this is way too funny!!! I suspected it was an aprils fools joke!!

btw this is my favorite forum day of the year.

<-First language guys!! read it!! Been that way for over a year!!!

The graphics look like they came from an NES.

SNES you mean. NES looks a lot worse.

On a side note, I have my old 2000 project I spent 4 years working on. Now I'm tempted to see if I can recreate it in VX Ace, using Ace's RTP instead for 2000's.

RPG Maker 2000 gem ahead

sick April fools joke with links to a sad 80's music video on youboob i was about to buy a copy if it was available for digital delivery

 

[seita]

Keep clicking on the link until it comes true. Seriously, this would be an instant purchase for the nostalgia factor alone.

 

[Xeveniah]

we need to start demanding it I bought a brand new factor sealed copy of rpgmaker for the playstation garage sale fo $25.00usd

 

[Sharm]

People have been demanding the older makers for a while, that's part of the reason for the joke. If we could figure out a way to make it available to everyone we would, but the background work is more complicated than it seems and most people wouldn't be willing to pay the price point we'd have to set for something that old.

I definitely fell for this one, but I was thinking more "Hmmm, seems odd to release an entirely new game when the current one is going strong."

The strangest April Fool's joke I've heard was when the BBC, in its usual matter-of-fact deadpan delivery calmly remarked that the spaghetti crops weren't going well this year, so the spaghetti prices would go up.  They showed workers taking cooked spaghetti off trees.

A fairly large number of people fell for it, because it was the BBC pulling the prank, and at the time, in the UK, spaghetti was mainly distributed in cans, so many didn't really know where spaghetti came from.

I don't know if the reason "Why" is true, but that was an interesting April Fools joke.

 

[Ellie Jane]

I know it's a joke but you'd make an absolute fortune if you actually did this. I'd buy it.

 

[Happy]

Oh you had me for a while. I was so amazed, and then the harsh reality of things strikes in. So cruel.
