Calling it nintools is just going to confuse anyone who plays final fantasy 11 due to you using nintools in the game if you are using the ninja job class lol.
 
I do like the idea of a centralised news system, however. Homebrew releases usually fall off the front page of the forum within a few hours (once again, help @QuarkTheAwesome in his quest to re-organise the forums) unless the homebrew happens to be REALLY popular.
Those curious about the endeavour should check here. It'd be awesome if you replied as well, we're falling down the list over there ;D

Yes, I like this idea. I say make as many Nintendo trademark, intellectual property references and similar things as possible.

Also ROM downloads is a great idea. Also a community where you can ask and share roms would be cool.

I don't want to create ROM sharing , just homebrews sharing.
There is already a website for share roms with forums , and is name is erdgtfezcukriczkjjgdces

Drop the wiiu and 3ds ideas from the name. Instead, focus on "homebrew". If you had no knowledge of what homebrew is and someone said "hey you should should check out this homebrew", what would you think they're talking about?

Probably beer.

Japanese famous beer? Kirin. Home Kirin Brew, HKB. NinKirindo. Chime in at this point... think beer. Don't think "hacks" and try to avoid being specific about WiiU or 3DS. You want the focus to be "HOMEBREW".

Honestly, the "message" is more powerful than the "method". In this case the site would have more of a message about "hey check out this homebrew instead of playing those other games because..." instead of focussing on "we do this, that, some of that, this, oh yeah, and not that".

Forums aren't bad, but really what you would want is a site that does something new to help people collaborate in making not just their game, but many games AND theirs. You help us make ours, we help you make yours.

I know for a fact lots of people have scripts and stories and game ideas they'd love to see made and distributed. Problem is, coding. Art. Time. Money, or the lack thereof more specifically.

So instead of just a forum where we dump our junk and get nowhere, there should be some sort of bartering system for coders, artist, musicians, writers, heck, even play testers... etc.

Don't get me wrong, GBATemp.net is awesome and everything, but really in the end we're either all working towards the same goal or pretty much keeping up with each other on how to get what we all want in the end.

The new site itself needs to break that from the start. Instead it should be, here, try a game. Now, you want to make too? What can you do? What can't you do? How do you accomplish your goal, while helping others accomplish theirs?

Otherwise people will just go off on their own tangent and nothing will ever get done. Instead, encourage people to do what they do best, for others. Then magically things you need will get done by others who also need you to do that thing for them.

How will the site maintain itself? Kickstarter. Once every year the kickstarter funds that get raised will go into a competition where everyone's game gets put up as is, and then players rate it. Winner gets promotion and some funds while rest goes back into maitaining site and helping support the entire community. Thus you encourage people to share their work, and who knows, maybe even the bad broken game nobody thought would work will get noticed and then they win and everyone pitches in to complete that game by a certain date....

That's how comic book companies hunt talent. Same goes for SxSW and whatnot.

Everything else will fall into place. The distribution, file sharing, forum, chatroom, etc.

Then, how cool would it be for GBATemp.net to take the winner, showcase it in an article and help this community connect to a creative community... thus two site doing two things instead of the same...

Just brainstorming here.

Do you like more AIO or WJ44.ML or Loadiine.ovh for base of Wii U exploits hosting ?
 
But i am 12
Oh, why am I not surprised?
Also, do you even know anything about what it takes to host a website? Because just that can be big enough of an issue that might stop you from making your site, at all.
