Your probobly thinking...."woe nikon you conceded bastard, your acting like a egomaniac dickwad with that topic title" WELL actually I know I am right on this one so I can't help but scream it out loud.

I AM RIGHT!!!!......NINTENDO?....IS OH SO WRONG!

What am I talking about? Nintendo.com's site interface. It's a mess. I like where it is going however there is nothing to ancor the content to the ground. It all looks like its floating in a universe of whiteness. It makes it incredibly hard to distinguish anything. Wanna see how right I am? Check out this screencap of the big N's site......shown along side....my alight alteration. All I did was add a colored background. Amazing difference huh?

Yeah, you are right about being right! Smile

It seems like Nintendo has trouble with anything online, even their site.

YES!

I knew there was something about it that annoyed me. It does feel like its floating in white space. Good eye my friend. You seem to have a natural talent for design, I think OC is designed very well. It's weird how such a small difference can change so much. Every page on Nintendo's site is llike that too. I think it makes the links harder to find for some reason.

Looking at your alteration its like comparing air to water (pun intended)

I do like Nintendo's new site, such as the content and message board .However, It does look like they could use a new web/graphic designer. Whoever did it probaly got paid very well too.

Hmmp... maybe they like the color white? Or maybe they're just lazy to add a touch of blue.

Hell any color would do. I just picked blue cause it was in the sites general theme. They could add gray, black, purple....uhhh red...anything. Anything to ancor the site down so your eyes arn't wandering all over hell for a fixed position. So hard to read that site. I think imma email them and just tell them to fix it cause.....I can't browse their site its too chaotic.

I agree. Even a nice light grey would calm it down considerably, and it wouldn't even look that different.

Oh well.
