I probably won't be sticking around. I may pop in every now and then, but I run my own site that needs some care right now.

With all the shock that everyone is expressing, I really doubt that anyone saw this coming.dragonflamez said:

Nintendo's ******** and is killed their fanbase.Gengar said:
Hence, NSider goes down.
I image they'll add some crappy Nintendo Homeware thing to replace it.

Oddly not. I thought that it would at least stay open, maybe deformed, but at least stay open. I mean, the mods and sages are doing their job for no pay, and the forum software can't be that much considering that they are RICH. They had no reason.dragonflamez said:
I know I didn't. Certainly everyone knew it was probably a remote possibility (as it is with any site on the web), but just pulling the rug out from under all those users without an ounce of notice is pretty stunning. I still can't quite fathom it.DemiseofGanon said:

I love what they wrote on the announcement:
"Remember also that the unique features available with Nintendo DS and Wii give Nintendo the opportunity to communicate directly with fans, while also enabling fans and friends around the world to communicate with each other."
Since when can I do that on this Wii when I'm not suppose to share friend codes with any fans from NSider. Its not XBox live or anything

Hey Demise, you were the first one who found his way here. Thanks for making the thread; I probably wouldn't have posted if I hadn't seen a thread related to this already.DemiseofGanon said:
I just sent another message to PapaSmalls telling him that we're gathering here. I hope he joins us soon.
Well guys, I got to go. I'm running late for class.
Exactly! That's just what I thought when I read that, too! So we can't trade friend codes via the forums, but we should continue to converse with the friends we made on the forums via the DS and the Wii which require friend codes for use ... my head hurts ...LegWinstonSmith said:Since when can I do that on this Wii when I'm not suppose to share friend codes with any fans from NSider.

I know this happened because of Lithium (and expenses in general). They've indirectly mentioned how expensive it is for a while... and I'm sure that's why there was no Camp Hyrule (and NSider gets bigger and bigger everyday, therefore more and more expensive everyday). Unfortunately from the perspective of a big business like NOA, they wouldn't look at other alternatives like free hosting. I mean it may sound weird, but there's always IF/ZB. Or they could just put ads on the forums.
But I hope this isn't total bad news yet. I mean let's say they have something else planned... they SHOULD have started it right after closing NSider, but it doesn't mean it won't happen if they didn't. Maybe they'll design their own forum software... who knows.

I wonder, who the last member was? I mean, there were over 200,000 users. I'm gonna get some stash from the other members, me, and a few other things there. Still, it's gonna be lonely without my friends there, but we'll meet again.Bulerias said:
The sheer amount of volume would probably preclude the free stuff, but I can't imagine a company the size of nintendo can't field their own forums. The Wii and DS print money nowadays ...stormcommander said:
