Default How Nintendo changed my life and the acquisition of NSider2

If you are anything like me, a late-generation Xer, Nintendo changed your life. In 1989, when Nintendo came out with the Game Boy, I went from tortured family trips with my three siblings to harmony and peace as we all sat transfixed and somewhat in awe of the ability we now had to take our video games with us on the road.

Nintendo has come a long way since then but they came an even longer way to get to that point. Founded in 1889, Nintendo was a game card company for the first 90 years. Knowing they wanted to expand, Nintendo tried out being a taxi company, a "love hotel" chain, a TV network, and an instant rice company. Fortunately for all of us, these ventures eventually failed, and after the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, playing card sales dropped, leaving Nintendo with 60 yen in stocks.

The mid-1970s spelled the change for Nintendo with the advent of their electronics products, culminating in their early 1980s release of Donkey Kong. The lives of parents on those long road trips would never be the same. Since then, Nintendo has evolved, creating games and gaming consoles including most recently (and notably) the Wii.

Gaming sites attract people ardent about discussing the current games on the market as well as older games. However, according to Wikipedia, "on September 17, 2007, Nintendo of America closed its official forums, the NSider Forums, indefinitely due to a major overhaul of their site."

In the wake of this, some members of Nsider Forums founded Nsider2. NSider2, or NS2 as it is commonly referred to, has grown to become one of the leading gaming sites with 13,000 registered members and traffic of over 2 million monthly page views, according to Google analytics. NS2 is more than just a forum, it is a resource with current news, product reviews, podcasts, blogs and more. It is a location to discuss and to learn about everything Nintendo.

We are excited to add this forum to the Crowdgather network of online communities and we look forward to seeing this site grow and thrive.

Default Good article!

This is just a list of some of the changes made from Trilogy and the original releases. The refinements certainly outweigh the shortcomings, but it's still strange that they're there. Below, I'll list everything I've noticed and will update as I continue through the games. If anyone wants to add anything, feel free.

Thumbs down the change of my financial budget

i used to spend all the salary every month and even apply many credit card before.. it is very terrible for me . i am very confused for my spending habit. it makes me sometimes loss the sense of safety. i worry about my personal financial situation ..

however, last month , when i was surfing in the internet and found out some good online shopping website. i compared their commodity prices with the local shops. it is so so cheap and can help me save so much money every month.

i buy three pair of shoes and one sun glasses of CK. but it is only costs 10 dollar ... it is so unbelieveable. the link is www.hahbuy.com. i compare it with ebay and found out that there are more cheaper commodities here.

so i share this good online experience with all the online friends.
