- Rhine23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I dunno, whats funnier the fact that they believed it, or the fact that GWN has lost all credibility EVER. I was a bit suspicious when Iwata was wearing the same pink tie and was in the same conference room.
- cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Oops
- kaiyraa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4GWN has apparently taken down their postings from before.

The event hasn't even really started yet. See:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=118984&page=17 - pingviini, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Well, this sucks.
It must suck to be GWN right about now.
But on a side note, how did they make this big of a mistake?
Is it a cruel joke? I could see the humor in it.
I'm not even upset, really just blown off my feet by the sheer improbability. It's just amazing. - achoo5000, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5It would suck to be a GoNintendo too, seems like all they can do is copy/paste.
- achoo5000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3No one is doing their own reporting?
- JerMe, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5how the HELL did this make it to the front page so late? GWN was blogging the correct info since 10pm pacific time. Get this crap off the front page. marked as inaccurate.
- Dgen_X, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1who is talking about conspiracy? they were given a link to a streaming video (which had a timed end....and had the ability to fast forward...) and were reporting it as current event
other websites were doing some amazing copy and paste work (even one that said they had an insider reporting FROM the event) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1no, at first they were taking their info from an old video from last year, but 15 minutes into it they realized this and postponed their live blogging till the real thing started at 1am EST
- hollismb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yup, it was pretty funny at the time, as if they were blogging that they were there, then admitting that they were watching the wrong conference.
- jfujita, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3lol worse than Joystiq
- mynameisjack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1the things people do for publicity
- CornStarch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Inaccurate, the info they're getting is in lock step with the other live summaries. Apparently it was just an honest mistake and not the conspiracy theory some people were making it out to be.
- bdude, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Dugg down. Inaccurate [old] and link to a blog. When will people learn.
- NeoRicen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Are you stupid? GWN WAS Live Blogging and old video.
