I've wondered, if this site's been around since 2006, what did it look like? Did it look similar to the layout today, or was is dramatically different? If anyone has any screenshots of the original site, that would be awesome :)

I didn't know the site back then but I understand that NintendoLife actually was created when several sites like VC Reviews were merged.

Probably getting a Vita with LBP soon...

Nintendo Life was around before the merger, Roopa. The merger brought it to life though :D

The word "Gem" is overused.

I was around for VC Archive. Before everything got too commercialised. Just a small bunch of gamers with a fondness for retro gaming on the Wii. No forum, no accounts, just pages for each game released on the VC with news articles for each new VC release and that was it.

I can't wait! I really hope they change the name though. Revolution seems kind of...corny. Oh well.
That 4GB hard drive for the DS looks cool too.

Ehn, so long as they don't change it to a name that'll make everyone laugh for a year or two, I'm happy.

I remember finding VC reviews, then I somehow found Wiiware revews through that. I went to the site fairly frequently to read the reviews and see the news. Then the murger occurred and everyone was confused. Soon after I decided to join.

wait so VC reviews, wiiware reviews and nintendolife were 3 different sites. I though VC and WW fused to make nintyLife

This is a fantasy based on reality.

Nintendo Life existed before VC Reviews and WiiWare World. I wrote for NL before I even realised what those two other sites were :P

I am not ignoring you. I just do not post much.

I had read Nintendo Life even before I joined VC-Reviews and later moved over to WiiWare-World. We just kinda combined them all together to make one super site. :)

This, although I didn't register until VC-Reviews and WiiWare World merged into Nintendo Life.

The way things are now is quite convenient (thus my decision to finally register), but I kinda miss the quietness and closeness of the older websites.

So how long until Movemodo and Nintendo Life merge into one big general gaming site?

Awesome Sonic Forum!
I'm a LONG time reader of Virtual Console Reviews (and I mean a LONG time - long before The Virtual Console Archive had its name changed), reader of WiiWare World since its launch.

I think it would be better if Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, whatever else were kept together. Potential trolls are more likely to travel between sub-forums than websites.
I also never knew about NL before the merge; not that I can recall anyhow.

I was never on the original NL, but I was a member of both VC-Reviews and WiiWare World before the merger. Man, that felt like ages ago.
