The nesvideos site is now 1 year old. I decided to make a post about it. Taking a review back, we've had quite a big share of complaints of harming this and that. So, what happened to competitive gaming? Did it suffer, like some loudmouthed individuals predicted? At this day, November 27th 2004, we have had about 340 publications in total. Almost half of them have been obsoleted by better versions, and today, we have 188 active movies, totalling to ~10.8 GB of downloadable AVI files. Our 10 biggest contributors so far are: 1. Walker Boh with 44 accepted movies (25 active today) 2. Bisqwit with 30 (5 active today) 3. Arc with 22 (8 active today) 4. Phil with *22 (12 active today) 5. Genisto with *18 (14 active today) 6. Sleepz with 10 (6 active today) 7. Frenom with 10 (4 active today) 8. Exim with 10 (3 active today) 9. Michael Fried with 9 (1 active today) 10. Phil and Genisto together with *9 (12 active today) The numbers were calculated from the filenames in the movie file repository. *) These numbers are inaccurate because all of their movie files aren't properly named after the authors. Discussionwise, the 10 biggest contributors are, at the moment of this posting: 1. Bisqwit with 1299 posts 2. Phil with 831 posts 3. Michael Fried with 699 posts 4. Bob Whoops with 597 posts 5. Walker Boh with 525 posts 6. FODA with 471 posts 7. Boco with 466 posts 8. Feitclub with 465 posts 9. Josh the FunkDoc with 416 posts (NesVideoAgent has 433) 10. Deviance with 399 posts [Edit: Need not to be an announcement anymore ann ann.]

I had been under the impression that it had started around Febuary of this year. Guess not :p Maybe I should start making movies again to get on that first list by this time next year. Watch out WalkerBoh, I'm going after your spot! >_>

February 2004 was when I started writing the changelog, but the site started earlier.

This site was founded on my birthday. Weird. Congratulations on one year. May it be the first of many. So I can get at least one movie up. ^_^;;

Interesting, this site started almost exactly on the same day I heard about Morimoto's 11 minute SMB3 run last year ... yet I've only been here for about 2 weeks, but having fun working on my own runs since then. Well, congrats for 1 year!

Cool. I haven't been here that long either. I've made two runs (one more or less unserious) and kept my self active in the forums. Hopefully I can continue to contribute to this site. It all depends on spare time. Great site! Keep it going. I would like to see a new submission every day next year. :D

I remember back when there was less than 10 movies here. We've had loads of improvements since then. Also interesting to see how many movies since then are still around today. Mega Man 2, Gradius. Although the former should be beaten in the near future.
