Post How did you come across the Nintendofuse forums
I was just thinking about how I came to Nintendofuse a few days ago. And I thought it would be interesting to see how some of you people came across it. I was looking for facts and rumors about wii u, and I came to here after 3 other sites and my computer froze for a second and so I was shaking my mouse and clicking then when it unfroze I was at Nintendofuses forum. I had absolutely no idea of what forum was (that's why I didn't know what trolling was) and I was reading some topics and I wanted to become a member as well.

Post a reply!

Probably searching for Wii stuff?

I had followed NintendoFuse on Twitter and saw a competition untitled "NES Ambassador Competition" or something along those lines. Wanting to show my worth in the realms of both Zelda games, Mario 1 and Wrecking Crew. I did make quite an effort at the other 5 of the 6 games (absolutely hate that NES Open game). So I had to join the forums to participate and stuck around. Took first in both Zelda games and had tie-breakers for the other 2 which I took second in the end.

Back in 2010, I stumbled across the site from another gaming site. There was a contest to win a free copy of And Yet It Moves on the WiiWare service. I entered the competition and was one of the winners. From there, I stuck around on the forums and noticed the staff was looking for someone to review games. I contacted the site owner and he brought me on board. I've been here since.

I was writing for the site, so I thought I'd join the forums too, so that I could get to know some of our active readers. I was also looking for a place to talk games, since the original NSider Forums closed down.

Post Re: How did you come across the Nintendofuse forums
Was writing for another site, was not working out so I left... started my own blog for a little bit, but eventually stumbled upon WiiNintendo. Spoke with Mickey and he asked if I wanted to come on board so I did. Then it was a no-brainer to join the forum as I love message board communities, they can be fun.

I was referred by Wishale, one of the dozen or so administrators we had at the time.

Actually it's ironic, he linked me to a specific thread and when I expressed an interest in joining, he begged me not to. Can't imagine why.
