This has been something discussed already, but if we're interested in having a potential new forum be anything beyond some place all the remaining regulars here migrate to, we'll need some kind of hook. I'm not sure if just being specialized will cut it (or even be something that the members here necessarily want, though I can't speak for everyone).
How we brought in new members in the first place was, basically, through David's videos and blogging. I don't think the promise of being a comprehensive community in regard to a given topic really means much without something backing it up. I don't think someone would be inspired to join a single-console-focused forum without a guarantee of some sort that it will be the best, most thorough place for discussion on that topic. I have trouble thinking of what it is that inspires people to join and stay active in one place over any other, but whatever it is, we'd need to figure it out imo. |

I would like the blog/website to be community driven and feature reviews/articles from our members. I've been learning a little bit about web design so I can handle that side of it at least. I'm not sure if David is all that interested in actually running a gaming blog/forums anymore so I might just talk with him to help us set up things. |

Great idea! I would love to see such a project come to fruition. It will need someone/some people with David's determination to make it successful, however (i.e. regular news updates/videos, occasional opinion piece, etc.)

I was thinking something that was primarily Nintendo "NX" focused- but not necessarily exclusive. (We can talk about games on other systems too if we want.)
More community based- where anybody can contribute instead of only having one or two people write articles. |

It allows for a more diverse amount of content- more often. Plus, I think it would be fun! |

I like having a proper forum set-up but I don't want to turn it into a microblogging mess like Destructoid has become. |

I like this plugin
It would allow you to use your social media account to login. Would make it less cumbersome for new users to join. |

The community run blog idea sounds fantastic. It'll give me an excuse to write on the internet like I would at school, which could be an enjoyable way of stretching those analytical muscles, so to speak.

I talked to Seph but it looks like he's already working with people on an NX site.
I guess I'll go ahead and draw up a layout for how the website would be formatted. David will be back from his hike in about a week so I can talk website stuff with him then. |

I might just go with IPS in the end. It's just less hassle. |

IDK.
I sort of feel like I should go ahead and start seriously setting up a new website/forums sooner as opposed to later. This place is on its last legs. Should we just say: "If NX isn't officially revealed by X date, go ahead and make new site." |
