@Gamer83 - That reminds me of when people jumped all over me on NL for saying I was getting Ducktales Remastered on PS3. How dare I not get it for Wii U and support Nintendo...
And since I have a Last of Us avatar that makes me a Sony fanboy even though I have owned pretty much every Nintendo console they have put out.
Yeah, you're asking for trouble if you have an avatar like The Last of Us, especially if you're making a comment that isn't full of praise for Nintendo. I wish I could comment over ther more often because as a Nintendo fan I believe there isn't a better Nintendo-dedicated website than NLife.
My main problem with most popular Nintendo sites is they become dens of fanboysim. Hell I love Nlife and I rarely comment on articles since people try and Flame me, despite me being a member of the site longer than most. (my user name probably doesn't help.) I mostly stick to the forums since most people there are familar with me and even then I've been mostly sticking to the Wii U and Pokemon related threads.
I really hate the Nintendo can do no wrong attitude and defending stuff like lack of a unifed account system. Also I find most nintendo fans passive aggressive these days having a persecution complex while attacking other fandoms. I find it pretty ironic that Sony/Microsoft are creativly bankrupt when Ninteno probably has the least diverse line up this holiday season.
WAT!
Hey check out my awesome new youtube channel shingi70 where I update weekly on the latest gaming and comic news form a level headed perspective.
On the topic if the sites traction, I think were going to see a bump in users this holiday. I'm seeing a lot of Nlife guya and gamers in general being interested in the PlayStation ecosystem.

Unfortunately, the general rule is that whenever something becomes more and more popular, it attracts more and more...erm, 'unsavoury' users.
Even the Miiverse on Wii U has suffered because of its balooning userbase (the Smash Bros community in particular has been invaded by trolls).
With that said, I like Push Square. It's my favourite PS site, because of the relatively mature community and great (non-biased) writers like Sammy.
I'm a Nintendo fanboy, true. But I'm certainly not one of those crazy ones that defend every stupid decision the company makes (No unified accounts! Software droughts! Region locking!) Nor do I wish death upon the Playstation & Xbox brands - and anyone who plays them. Anyone who thinks like that has serious mental issues.
Heck, I just dumped the Wonderful 101 (I don't really like it so far), in order to play Killzone on Vita!

Buy pikmin 3.. Wonderfull 101 has some flaws but that is that sort of game. Platinium games always made games like this. I love it but sometimes the drawing ( for like a example a sword) is flawed

Hate to break this to you, but fanboys will always flame regardless of whom they support. I've seen plenty of examples of Sony and Microsoft fans do the same thing.
To be honest, I preferred Nintendo Life when it was much smaller. If Push Square gets just as big, it too will face similar problems.

I think everything will be ok as long as we get a mod for Push Square.

Speaking of which, if any of you are interesting in moderating Push Square, please send me an email on sammy [at] pushsquare [dot] com. It's actually a position that we're looking to fill.
Thanks for all the kind comments on the community by the way. I'm really happy with how the site's grown over the past 12 months, and while I'm eager for things to grow, I definitely want to try and maintain the friendly atmosphere we have here.

Are there any special requirements for the mod position? Age, Country etc..?
I'm interested on the position, just want to help make Push Square a better place.
I have to say I hope the atmosphere stays friendly. Thats one of the reasons I like all 3 sites and they are my go to for Nintendo, Sony and MS info and why I let my son visit this site as well.
I am sure that this site will grow alot in the next few months.
RetiredPush Square Moderator and all around retro gamer.
NL just has waaaaaaay to many fanboys. They tend to argue against anything that makes nintendo look bad. (I just left NL, I'm tired of getting into arguements).
I would love to be a moderator here i check this site like everyday, i love it here more so than Nintendo life,as i would love to be a mod there too but not as much as i would here. I love the writers and community and sammy is tha bomb diggity

Is Des in charge of the community here as well?
There is another Des!? I thought I was the only one lol
YOu know I hate to jump on this bandwagon as well but honestly the last few days I have been on Nintendolife and I don't know maybe its me but the maturity level over there has gone down alot recently. Dont get me wrong I love the site but I see alot of people poking fun at other users and just generally out right insulting people when they disagree. Not sure why that is but its actually kinda sad to see it happen to a site I really enjoy.
And I have to agree the fanboyism is really bad over there. I love how useres there believe that because its called Nintendolife that the only thing we can say about Nintendo is positive. I have even seen them go after writers of articles like a rabid dog whenever they post article about Nintendo not doing so well.
I really hope they get things back on track over there cause if they dont I hate to say it but at this rate it will become like IGN in a few years.
