Nintendo magazine. Enjoy!

2002:
Added an introduction page, and as you've seen The NES Fountain has received
its first award, being The
Warp Zone's site of the month! There's a new article (rant) at the
Articles. I've also changed the 800x600 index site a bit. There is also a
relatively new NES site online, EightBit
Online, be sure to check it out, it can also be found at the Links page.
Last and also least, some small changes in the 'We didn't made it' list at the
Europe Section. Expect another update soon.

New design! What's updated: added some manuals, updated collections to .txt
format and added Rad Gravity NSF in the shrine (thanks to Memblers!).
Updated the PAL-only games list, added screen shots to the Rad Racer review,
and updated my beaten games list with the SNES games Asterix and Lucky Luke.
Furthermore I changed some little stuff, not important enough to mention.

2002:
The NES Fountain has been moved to Silius
Networks! Please update your bookmarks and links to http://nesfountain.silius.net.
Nothing has been updated, but it sure looks better without ad banners and
pop-ups!
5 November 2002:
Added Mega Man 5 (PAL) box art.
Thanks goes to eBay user suicidekiller
for these scans. In the pirate section I added pictures of the actual carts to
the already existing articles. In the Europe Section, 'Different name, same
game' and 'We didn't made it' have been updated. Also updated are the links
page, all my collections , my beaten games and last but not least there's a
new version of the Australian/European SNES list online.

September 2002:
Europe section and pirate
section were updated. At the Europe section the different
name, same game page was changed and the PAL-only games
page is online. Also the Club Nintendo page is online,
which also includes some cover scans! At the pirate
section there are two articles online about two different
NES multi-carts. The accessories has been updated, and
the Links page is updated as well!

July 2002:
Update! New scans added to
the box art section, mainly euro-only. Review of Rad
Racer is up. Collections updated, and the different name,
same game page over at the Europe Section, Super
Adventure Quests added. I got that game today, yay! And
the early version of the European SNES list is now
online! Now I have to hurry, because I'm going to France
for a week, and I'm leaving within two hours, see you! (I
hope I find Dragonball in a trashcan over there :)

May 2002:
Due to some troubles, this
update took a bit longer than planned. Updated the Rad
Gravity shrine, with the Rad Gravity and Planets section,
and added a background to it. Please don't use the
animated GIFs, if you really want to contact me first
about it. Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! review was added,
screen shots will be added later. Beaten games list was
updated, as well as the 'We didn't made it' list in the
Europe section. Some links were removed and added a few.

April 2002:
Yay an update! First I added the Vehicles and Credits sections
to the Rad Gravity shrine. Second I updated my collections and beaten
game list. That's it. Third I updated the 'We didn't made it' list in
the Europe Section. This time thanks go to Klarth for giving me
information. Next time I will update the links. It sucks to update that
section all the time, especially because of those 'mongolen' of the NES
Fandom.
26 March 2002:
The 'we didn't made it' list in the Europe Section has been updated.
Some games on the list were released in Europe, like Star Force, Tecmo
Cup Soccer and The Terminator. I got also some information about
Iceland. Thanks goes to Oyvind Sundstrom from Norway and Sverker
Johansson from Sweden. I also added the (bit outdated) complete NES list
from Millert. Bad news is that my scanner couldn't be fixed. I really
begin to hate these things.
21 March 2002:
This is not an update, but just to let you know I'm very busy
at the moment. However my scanner will be fixed within a few days I hope
and I'm working on a review.
22 February 2002:
In this week's update I added the Bosses section of the Rad
Gravity shrine. I also added two links to the Temple of the NES and
Yoichi's Temple of Fiends Revisited.
15 February 2002:
Another update. I added box art for Krazy
Kreatures, Mermaids of Atlantis and Venice Beach Volleyball. Thanks to
TRM from the great NES site The
Warp Zone for the scans. Oh and I saw that my background wasn't on
the top 10 article, I fixed it and it's there.
14 February 2002:
Happy Valentine's Day. Especially for today I made a Top 10 NES
Valentine games. You can find it at the Articles. Also updated some
other collections.
13 February 2002:
The Rad Gravity shrine opened today with the Enemies. Added a link to
NES World Wide and fixed the link of the Blaster Master shrine.
8 February 2002:
Ok, I fixed some faults in the site today. I also added NES
Chedda, NES Horsemen, Grand NEStral Station and NES On Ice to the Links.
Added 2 accessories in my NES collection: Terminator 2 joystick and a
Batman joystick. Also added Mike Etler's rarity list.
Oh, and please link to me :)
6 February 2002:
Finally my
site is back, with a new look! As you may know the one before didn't
really have a "NESish" look. I think it has now! I'm sorry but
my banner has become wet due to the flowing NES Fountain. Another
problem with my old site was that the menu did not always work, I don't
use frames now anymore, because of that I now have a banner on my site
instead of an irritating pop-up. The goal for this site is to inform you
about the wonderful Nintendo Entertainment System.
