Title: Planet GameCube is dead
Post by: MEGAߥTE on November 17, 2006, 11:55:40 AM
Long live Nintendo World Report!  As many of you may know, I not only work on this site, but I write for Planet GameCube.  Or I used to, because Planet GameCube relaunched yesterday with a new design as Nintendo World Report.  You can read my Mario reviews and impressions here, but I also write about many other games.  I know many of you enjoy my reviews, so go ahead and check out my other articles, including the two reviews I posted today:

I don't like the name at all.

Whenever I read the name I always think a report about Nintendo World.

I think of an odd combination of US News and World Report, Weekly World News, and The Colbert Report.

I didn't like the name either. I don't like the initials nearly as much either.

I like the name a lot. Very professional.

I'm sure everyone'll get used to it--like you did with the Wii, the name you were born with, etc.

So, M?:  As a writer/trivia king, what sort of input did you have with the new name?

I had zero input on the new name or design; that was closely guarded by the senior staff.
