Please update your Wii console to the new address if you wish to receive emails from the service.

Thanks!

The past few days, you may have noticed that the number of news posts I’ve put up on the site has dwindled. This has been because I’ve been very sick, and just sitting at the computer has been an arduous job. For the most part, I’ve been resting. I’m starting to feel a bit better, so I’ll attempt to post more news. Moreover, I’ll start doing regular updates again shortly.

Anyway, that’s the situation with the site. I thought some of you would be interested to know about what’s been happening.

Over the past month or so, our contact form was down. This was due to a minor glitch in the system. It’s back up now, however, so if you need to contact the guys behind the scenes, feel free to use the contact form. We also accept any news tips that you may have.

Hey folks,

Wanted to give you guys an update about a few things. I received the impression that many of you wanted a new design for the website. However, a number of you wanted the old design as well. Well, I’ve managed to come across a compromise. A new design has been put up on the site, but you can change layouts at any time. Personally, I’m enjoying the new design a lot, but the old one isn’t too shabby either. I had hoped to integrate the red color a bit more, though it really wasn’t fitting in with the new design. I hope you like it nonetheless! The theme changer is toward the bottom of the page.

I’d also like to introduce the forums. These forums are new, so I encourage anyone who is interested to join. I do not expect them to grow at an exponential rate or anything, but hopefully in time, it can become a nice, compact community. It will really be up to you – the visitors – to make the forum something special. I do plan on changing it a bit, and making the necessary corrections/additions, but I think it will do for now.

Once again, I encourage anyone who is interested in the forums to join!

I’ve been struggling with this decision for quite awhile now. Some readers have reported that the text on the website is too light and in some instances, is difficult to read. With a site redesign, I would aim for more of a Nintendo-look in terms of colors, and of course, I would try to make text easier to read. However, I’ve heard different things from different people. Some want me to change the design of Nintendo Everything, but others want it to remain the same. As you can see, I really need some input from you guys. Please use the poll below, since I would like to make a decision based on the opinions of the readers.

For the past half hour, you may or may not have noticed that NE had a bit of down-time. This was mainly as a result of a server update.

The site usually isn’t down, and if it is, it isn’t for too long. So thanks for bearing with us!

I came across an issue where if you clicked on the textbox to perform a search, you would get redirected to our vs. feature. However, this has now been fixed, so please feel free to search to your heart’s content!
