SNK’s fake April Fool’s Day game becomes real

This year, in our list of April Fool’s Day jokes, you may have seen SNK’s Star Radish, which was a fake Neo Geo game. No one was fooled by the webpage for the salad shooter, but some said that they would love for Star Radish to be a real game. Now it is…kind of.

It turns out that this vegetable-packed retro shooter will live as a game within a game. SNK has wedged it in the next in their line of inappropriate touching DS titles, Doki Majo Plus, letting you take a quick break from stylus actions that would normally have Dateline’s Chris Hansen knocking at your door.
