CMR | 522 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 nesguide.com was a great site and database of NES games, but then it just seemed to vanish. There hasn't been any updates on the site's social media either. Anybody know what happened to it? https://web.archive.org/web/20230128233519/https://nesguide.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,890 Administrator · Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Hopefully just a server issue or something; hate to see resources, especially free resources, disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,958 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I looked it up at least 2mo ago and it was dead, ended up having to backdoor anything useful finding their companion youtube account to look up a video I was after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH | 5,013 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Well, the WHOIS record was updated on 6/17, created 7/24/2005. It doesn't look like the domain expired and someone snatched it up because, I think, that resets the Created Date, but I could be wrong. Maybe it was an old hobby project and the guy wants to keep it up but he needs to shift servers, and isn't motivated to be fast about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMR | 522 Posted July 13, 2023 Author Share Posted July 13, 2023 It was pretty complete for a hobby project, and the site had even been adding videos to the game descriptions. I hope you're right about him just being slow to shift servers. On 6/29/2023 at 3:47 PM, RH said: Well, the WHOIS record was updated on 6/17, created 7/24/2005.
