Nester Joins Super Smash Bros. Roster [April Fools' Day]
When Game Informer's news hound Mike Futter assigned me to this story, I questioned its legitimacy as an April Fools' Day prank. In my opinion, Nester joining Super Smash Bros' expanding roster makes more sense than Wii Fit Trainer. I'd also take him over King Dedede.
This April Fools' Day joke doesn't come from Nintendo, but website Operation: Power Up. A good amount of effort went into making this joke look like the real deal, including a Super Smash Bros. web portal that links up to Nintendo's site.

We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk.
