Oh definitely Gamespot....err I mean...Nintendo Life for sure. But in all seriousness, I like Gamespot and many of the other gaming media sites as I'm of the thought process that you can never have to many opinions on various games. The more the better I always say.

Plain old gamer :)

I go here for nintendo news. And I AVOID the forums on gamespot. same with IGN. IGN is horrible about forums. Just a bunch of fanboys screaming at each other. Not like here, where an opinion is actually valued

Since I'm mainly interested in Nintendo, I prefer NintendoLife. And the site really has developed well, I started visiting it regulary in the VC-Reviews/WiiWareWorld times and I was really skeptical about the change to a full Nintendo site, but you really impressed me. NintendoLife instantly turned into the best and fastest site when it comes to Nintendo related news and the focus on VC and Wii/DSiWare is still there. It's great and I'm visiting this site on daily basis.

Larger gaming media sites like GameSpot or IGN are just dull in my opinion. There's too much spam and Wiihate and too many fanboys from all directions. (But of course I'm mostly annoyed by those so called "hardcore gamers", who believe, they're hardcore while playing FPS games with analog sticks and that HD graphics are all that matters to make a good game. xD) The community on NintendoLife looks way more friendly, even if the opinions are still varied.

i like the forums here... gamespot is biased in a too obvious way.i ranted about this,but to no surprise,there wa no change.it was even more surprising how many ppl agreed /w me.

But i should point out that the dsiware reviews from nintendolife r abit dissapointing.They gave Real Football 09 an 8/10.Did they even play this?the bugs are everywhere in the game - this is simply unacceptable.no updates either...

On the other hand,Nintendolife has the most friendly people and fanboys/girls giggles i ever saw
nice and funny debates too.what NL needs is a rumor section - just to brake people`s hearts when it comes to Flipnote Studio because deep down,all of us here are EVIL.

FB app is even more evil...

I prefer 1up.com for my non-Nintendo news. NL is great also, even if I think they tend to be a little generous with the review scores.

well i think well get an obvious answer ON ONE OF THE TWO COMPARING SITES! you have to take a poll on this outside of gamespot or NL.
well in gamespot the articles just seems so generic and like its written by a computer. yes the forums suck. and you may consider this a pet peeve but I HATE IT WHEN YOU CAN PUT BANNERS OR IMAGES IN YOUR SIGNATURE!!! theres always more in your sig that you even write in your post!

I agree. I've onlyposted a handful of times on IGN, since their community is mostly full of flamers, spam-linkers, and lunatic fanboys...

I prefer Gamespot for general gaming coverage (obviously) and Wii news, though Nintendolife has the edge in retro reviews and community.

I don't really like GameSpot, but I do like IGN and MobyGames (Go check it out!). Of course I like NL.

I prefer IGN over GameSpot. They have more news and I like their people more.

NintendoLife trumps both, though.

I say nintendo life because Gamespot is too stricked, I got banned about a year after I joined and I know people who got banned only weeks after they joined.
