Title: Would you be interested in a Nintendo racing game fansite?
Post by: RABicle on September 27, 2003, 09:27:56 AM: I've been thinking about this for awhile now and seeing as GBA-AU died due to matters out of my hands, I need a new website to occupy myself with. And I thought I could make some kind of fansite of a similar mould to many Zelda sites based around Nintendo's racing games. This means Mario Kart, F Zero, 1080°, Wave Race, Excitebike and any other Nintendo developed racing titles (ie. Kirby's Air Ride)

Now all of this is thinking aloud but would any of you guys be interested in such a site and would you consider contributing?

Contributing? Some of the most coherent stuff I write is "With a walrus down his pants, the two toes jump to safety just in time. Thank the burgers St. Nick was there to catch them. "

I don't have any website making experience/software/desire, but I'll help in anyway I can. But even if I don't, go ahead and make it since Nintendo Inc. has, like, nothing to do with Nintendo anymore. :\

I do one for F-Zero X, F-Zero AX, F-Zero MV and Mario KArt 64. Wait till GX comes out and that wraps my F-Zero involvement.

i thought the site was doing well, cause it even had it's own forum!!!! how did you manage that??
I tip my hat to you for your efforts, Rab and other-guys-that-worked-there.

Post by: RABicle on September 28, 2003, 06:34:46 PM: Well I didn't expect much positive feedback but hey, mabye I will actually start making this site as opposed to thinking about it.

GBA-Au died because our hsot suddenly stopped paying for his own domain name so it all just vanished, we were planning a new layout and all kinds of crap too, oh well. They reckon they will get it all back up in a month or so but I'm not interested in it anymore.

Reviewing these racing games wont be a priority seeing as if your visiting the site you've probably got an interest in them to start with. But feel free to write them if you want.

What was probably going to be the main focus of the site was offering a large amount of detail on the game, running fastest lap time contests, etc. Listing shortcuts and strategies for courses and stuff.

Covering Unirally is a great idea, I cant believe I forgot about it, which is bad seeing as I own the game :s

Any other ideas, thoughts?
