On A New Laptop!
Posted by Solyx on July 25, 2009 [8:50 eastern time]
 
I actually have a reason for this latest delay in the updates. My other laptop didn't really like me recently, and I've actually gotten a new one. This one isn't so bad, but I had to cut down on spending a lot due to the economy, so even though I got a new one, its not even an upgrade really. But believe me, I'm not complaining, I understand things could be so much worse.

In the meantime, I've done a lot of thinking about the site. I've talked to some of the staff too. To be honest, I think we're all unsure where we want the site to go, and where it actually is going. Unfortunately when I started the site, I didn't know the struggles I'd face in my personal life. And from the perspective from the staffers, it seems as though its hard for them to really set their sights on the site when they don't know how I'm going to be.

This is not to say we're shutting down or anything! I just wanted to be honest with all the visitors! But on a better and final note for this update, look at what we've added below!

Let's Try This Again...
Posted by Solyx on July 10, 2009 [2:07 am eastern time]
 
...Again?

We went through another update gap again, but this time there's a reason. My parents told me about a surprise trip halfway across the country 2 days before we actually left. I had internet there but it was so awful that I couldn't make a simple text update!

Pin the others on me, but this gap I couldn't help guys! In all serious though, I apologize for the gap. I recently returned home, and will be adding the remainder of the soundtracks I promised. I had to go quickly far away for something in the family, I didn't have a choice!

In the meantime, we have made our own Youtube Channel! We'll probably be adding some Nintendo videos there soon!


Forever Nintendo's Soundtrack Month / Redesigned Forums!
Posted by Solyx on June 13, 2009 [3:00 am eastern time]
 
Forever Nintendo is having another one of our quote/unquote "specials" again! Everyone can thank Swirl Guy for convincing me to do a soundtrack month. Despite being 13 days into the month, we'll be adding at least 1 soundtrack a week for the next 4 weeks.

We know everyone likes soundtracks, so it'll be nice to have. I'm not entirely the sure which ones I'll be adding and in which order they'll be added in. I guess it just depends how I'm feeling at the time!

We also redid our Forums! They now have a new skin with new graphics, and they've been improved a lot. Everyone sees to like it more, so we hope that you'll join and post with other fans!

E3 Screenshots And Artwork!!
Posted by Solyx on June 5, 2009 [3:00 am eastern time]
 
I'm sure people were wondering if I was going to update during E3, and I wanted to, but I'll admit I'm guilty of soaking all the coverage up myself! I was absolutely hooked to the computer for all of E3. It was definitely the best one in years - for Nintendo and for gamers in general!

But along the way I definitely got my hand on some screenshots for all the major series that saw new games come to life! And of course, they've all been added to the site! Personally, I found Metroid: Other M to be my highlight. The game looks absolutely amazing and I love Team Ninja's Dead or Alive fighting series!

Unfortunately I am a terrible newshound and am not the type to constantly update every minute when news breaks. The way I have things set up it's just too hard to do, so that's why covering news is left to the big guys while we continue to add game info and media!

But there's something else I've been working on in the meantime. Nothing is for sure, but it would be something that would be huge for the site, but I got to find out all the staff's thoughts about it first! Until then it's a secret! As for regular stuff, I moved all the old updates into the Update Archive

Oh yeah, one last thing. There was no Zelda announced at E3, but Shigeru Miyamoto said there is one in development and had 1 image to show people - a piece of concept art. Well like other sites we have it, but definitely check it out. Nothing says "awesome" like a super high-res poster of it! Yep, we got one!

Awesome New Server/New Email/New Buddy/Blogs/Pics/Vids/More!!
Posted by Solyx on May 24, 2009 [7:56 pm eastern time]
 
We have a big update today! I know a lot of you are probably thinking that I didn't update cause of everything going on, but that's not the case! We had another server problem and now we're totally migrated on a new platform. It's faster, more space, and more bandwidth! Maybe the fans don't see it right now but from our end, it was worth the wait!

Outside of that, we have a bunch of new stuff. First and foremost, we have a new Buddy! It's a great Pokémon site called Pokémon Omega X! They have a lot of info and the latest updates on everything in the Pokémon universe!

Another new cool thing we have is a new section on the navigation menu called "Awesomeness." Underneath that section, we have 2 new pages called Cool Pix and Youtube Picks. Give those a look over, they're really fun-type pages! I have also added a page under "Everything FN" called Blogs. It's pretty self explanatory in itself, but just to say it anyways, it's a link to any staff member's personal blog. I made one recently on Wordpress, so give them a look over!

I have also gotten a new email address. It's changed on all pages, and I can get all emails again now!

Lastly, we're really looking for some people to join the Forums. They're a bit down right now and we really hope we can get an active community going!

FN Is Still Alive!

Hey everyone, it's been a long time since the last update! I almost forgot how to do this! Not really but hey I may as well make a joke about it...even if it sucks as a joke...

Anyways we're back up and running again. For those who know me or a staff member, you might know what's been happening to me lately. Unfortunately I had to go through some things that I would never want to go through, nor anyone else to go through. I'm not going to explain it here, so I wrote a nice little note:
