As you probably know in a recent NP issue NP hinted on thier plans to open a new forum, however starting with issue 222 Future US took over as publisher of NP. In the new Holdiday issue editior Chris Slate writes in response to this message straight from the magazine.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE[/b]
After making sooo many new friends,
having discussions about games,asking
and answering questions, and helping
one another out, it is such a shame that
Nintendo closed its forums. Why did
they have to close so suddenly? Please
bring back the forums. I really miss
them.(I'm sure I'm not the only one)
Skitty18
(My former NSider name)
......Since Nintendo has closed its
forums indefinately, there isn't much we
can do right at this moment. I would
personally love to help put some forums
back out there for nintendo fans to go
to, so you never know, maybe we can
help make somthing hapen in the fu-
ture.
I paraphrased it to remove the messages regarding to the sections removed because the forums were closed. What do you think about this? The way he talks it seems like they wont be bringing them back soon, discuss.
It's already been proven in another article that it's coming in 2008. ;D
January biotch
We should just flood them with our URL, and see if they publish it. :D

Yeah, because once they see how many members are idiots and are whorey pervs, and how messed up the boards are, and how many cuss words are allowed to go uncensored (bad since cussing is prevalant there), they'll turn them down pronto!

Why, thank you! Man, we should tell Future US about that before they announce that NS2 is the official forum and have kids go there and possibly get exposed to stuff they shouldn't be exposed to...
I've even been tempted to E-Mail them about that and make NSF.net the official forum...
Guys, do you seriously want this forum as the official one? If this happens, FutureUS or the brass at the Big n's legal will want to impose their own rule sets and restrictions on us. Also, for the most part, members are fairly intelligent and rational here. If this becomes official, we inherit all of the scum that was corrupting the original nsider in the first place.
Let them make their own 'official' POS, or let the concept of one official forum die.
:D

srsly the mods here are actually human and are cooler ;D
thats why i prefer this nsider than ns2
I don't know what proof there is concerning Nintendo opening a new forum in '08, but they don't necessarily have to act in conjunction with Nintendo Power. It sounds like the two are pretty far apart now... and while NP most definitely won't open their own official forum, that doesn't mean Nintendo won't.

And making this the official NSider replacement will put a real good image on Nintendo :-\
This place won't ever become the "official" forum. Neither of them ever will. IF they do, they'll be so warped and twisted to meet certain "regulations," they'll be completely different forums anyways.
And spamming NP's inbox not only makes this place look unprofessional, but it will probably push them NOT to include it rather than the other way around.

This is Nintendo. There's no way in hell they are associating themselves with either of the forums. They have the strongest privacy policy in video game industry and NS2 has talk of a program giving out people's addresses. The lack of censors, the lack of intelligent discussion, and the fact that the place is ran by banned users is enough to convince Nintendo otherwise. I would be shocked if the place recieved a mention, so we can rest easy about it being the official forum. I'm sure Nintendo is remaking the forum, but it's being remade to appeal to the casuals. That means stricter rules, yay! <(@^-^@)>

This is the "proof" And Yeah just because NP isn't, that doesn't mean that NoA won't.

Probably not if its being completely rebuilt. However, if our forum profile's details are associated with our Nintendo accounts, it's not farfetched.
