Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo Ships With Nier?
Update: Obviously...April Fool's. Nothing else needs be said. ;)
Original Story:
What we're hearing doesn't really make much sense, but it sort of gels with past news.
A little while ago, Square-Enix vaguely mentioned the idea of a Final Fantasy VII remake at their official Twitter page; after which, the place exploded. Then, S-E president Yoichi Wada finally confirmed they'd "consider" a remake of the beloved role-playing classic, which is the best news we've heard yet. But perhaps it's all a facade; perhaps they haven't been gauging interest and teasing us...maybe they already have a certain project going, and we'll get a sneak peek with the upcoming Nier. The latter is an action/RPG that, as far as we know, has absolutely nothing to do with the Final Fantasy universe. However, according to an inside source, who reminds everyone that he's not "confirming anything," it seems there will be a big surprise in the Nier package. Here's what he said:
"People will probably want Nier, if only because of the FFVII stuff."
I had to ask for some sort of clarification but the response was a little vague:
"I can't be sure myself. They won't really tell us, but it has something to do with FFVII. Don't know if it'll be playable or not."
Many years back, we saw a tech demo that really got everyone talking, and then we got the movie, "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children." Some time has passed since then and all of a sudden, they want to drop a glimpse of something related to FFVII...into Nier? Why? Wouldn't it make more sense to put it into Final Fantasy Versus XIII, or something? Or are we only talking about another tease? Or bad information? No answers anywhere right now but even so, it's a little exciting...

Just so you all know, which I'm pretty sure you all will know, this is purely hope and wishes from a FF junkie, nothing to be taken to lightly haha But the possibilites are there, and Sony and Square Eniz should know the amount of potential customers they have here, especially with many being introduced to the series in the west. All those possible console movers and video game shakers...I highly doubt Sony hasn't considered this.
But again, just being your typical, hopeful fanatic of the game haha

I would sooner believe that Ben and Arnold were going to Vegas tonight to tie the knot! :P
I would sooner believe that Microsoft was going to add compatibility to play PS3 games on the XBOX 360, while Sony removes compatibility to play PS3 games on the PS3.
Any and all BIG news here till April 2 is false news!

I was fooled a few years ago when the FFVII remake was "confirmed", and a little entertained. But since then the whole April fools tradition has really just made me think less of all the gaming sites participating.

Although it should be known that all 13 voices in my head live in a land of subterfuge, mystery, and deceit. So they always twist every statement into some conspiratorial theory.

LOL ok my mind went a little far with that but please don't let this be a cruel joke. Sounds like not many people falling for it if it is anyway but I am a newb here and I WANT to believe.

The last "good" April Fool's joke I remember was PSMs Valkyrie Wylde story, the one where the female protagonist was nude (with the exception of boots and twin holsters) through the entire game. It was obviously fake, having used retouched Tomb Raider graphics and giving April 1st as a release date. But what was so immensely hilarious was when I saw it on the nightly national news in a story about parents being upset that this game was being made. Looks like Fox News isn't the first network to run a story without validating its credibility.
