wiinintendo bday

I held off on a domain name until the name “Wii” was announced 1 year ago today. So, WiiNintendo.net and the name “Wii” share birthdays.

So um… party on!

Before I launched this site, I would post gaming news on my freelance site, basicfunction.com. I started a pretty big rumor when I added flames to a theory that the new Nintendo console was named “Nintendo Go”. I made a fake video that found it’s way throughout the interweb that caused quite a stir, have a look at the video and the story from the (Pre-WiiNintendo days):

I’d like to thank GBAtemp.net, GBAdev.org, and MaxConsole.com for being great forums for me to talk Nintendo for the past 5 years, before I had my own outlet here on WiiNintendo.

Here is a look at WiiNintendo’s first article, 1 year ago:

    word, i found this site the day that the trial internet channel came out. I've checked back everyday since. Keep up the good work and have a :) B-day.
  • reticuse said it all for me. I was searching up the Zelda Retrospect DVD and found the site. I was stunned by the layout theme which, little did I know, drew me back to check up on the news everyday.

    I know I wouldn've come upon this place eventually. \:D/
    I'm happy for WiiNin.
