    What is NGEB?
    NGEB is a site dedicated to all things Nintendo. The name stands for "Nintendo GameCube EarthBound". We aim to take a creative approach in educating the masses about Nintendo, including plenty of media, in-depth reviews, and a bit of insight into Nintendo's amazing history. If you want to know more about the site and our history, check out our Site History page.


    How do I use the layout?
    TOP
    The blue words, "NGEB", link to the splash page. Along the bottom-left are links to pages of information on each of Nintendo's consoles and portable systems. The grey buttons in the middle take you to our Guestbook and Forums. The buttons along the bottom-right take you to either of the two main site sections, Reviews and Features, and our two main sub-features, a section devoted to information about the EarthBound/Mother game series, and Fanboys, our webcomic. In the upper-right are links to the Home news page and news Archives section, and finally a link to the Site Info. section you're currently browsing.
    BOTTOM
    On the very bottom of the page is the copyright information for NGEB content, as well as an "eject" button to bring you back to the top of the page without annoying scrolling. Enjoy!


    Can I use NGEB's files on my own website?
    It depends. If there's work that wasn't produced by NGEB, you can basically use it unconditionally. But if it's something we've put together, please ask us first. We'll probably let you, but it's best to let us know.


    Why is your site about Nintendo?
    Well, it's hard to say. Nintendo just seems more friendly and enjoyable for everyone. Their games are usually more fun and interesting to play, and it seems they're always on-top of the game as far as ideas and innovation go. Sony, and especially Microsoft, tend to have bad business ethics that we really don't appreciate.


    Do you cover any Sony or Microsoft news?
    Yes, in-fact. We do welcome reviews of any kind, regardless of the system or publishing company. Games are games, and that's that. As far as information coverage goes, though, we tend to only report on subjects that directly relate to Nintendo in some way.


    What's GameCube?
    The Nintendo GameCube is Nintendo's current home console. It launched on Nov. 18th, 2001. Its official abbreviation is GCN. To learn more about the GameCube, check out our GameCube section.


    What is EarthBound?
    EarthBound is a fantastic Super Nintendo RPG that was released in 1995. In Japan it was part of a series called the "Mother" series. To learn more about EarthBound and the Mother series, check out our EarthBound section.


    Where can I get EarthBound?
    EBay's a good place to look for it. You can also find it used at a lot of videogaming stores. It's really more common than you'd think.


    Why don't you have ROMS?
    Because we don't want to end up in a lawsuit, or paying a big fine, and ultimately, the site would get shut down (again), and no one wants that.


    I need help with a game, can I get it from you?
    If you need help with anything, you can e-mail us any time. We're really that bored. ^_^
