This project originated after a few years of looking at a certain videogame company and his response to fan projects, since it was less than ideal and specially after never improving despite fan outcry. After being influenced by killed by Google and a few videos about the subject that I highly recommend watching since they illustrate the issue with the company pretty well, I decided to make a compilation of news and events this videogame company has caused over the years to make sure we don't forget the story we lived in hopes that one day, we won't repeat it. The list of videos I mentioned can be found here:
- Sacrifices to the Church of Nintendo
- How Nintendo disrespects its most passionate fans.
- The Game Nintendo Wishes It Never Made
- A History of Nintendo and Anti-Consumerism
If you'd like to edit or host this website on your own, I highly recommend using a webserver on the machine you are going to use for this. The first thing you want to do is downloading the repository, to do this you can use git (if you already know how to use it) or download the files as a zip (the green button above the contents of the repository gives you the option).
You can use your web browser (chrome, firefox, brave, opera, edge, etc.) to open the website by dragging the index.html into a new tab. But if you do it that way, any changes to the .css, .json and even .html files might not be reflected since the browser opens a cache of the file and not the current version. For this reason it is highly recommended to use a webserver (you can find more about this here). I use webservers made on node since it makes things easy for me, so if you want to use them you can download node here: https://nodejs.org/en/. If you don't want to use node or use some other webserver, you can do so but it's up to you to set it up.
Now you can deploy the website and open it on your browser. If you used your own webserver or you downloaded some other program then you need to follow the instructions for that web-server. If you downloaded node or you want to use node then there are two webservers you can use, http-server and reload:
This is a simple webserver, to run it simply open a console on the folder where you downloaded the repository and type:
npx http-serverNode will automatically download the server and run it for you, after a few seconds a message will appear prompting you to open http://localhost:8080 on your browser, if you do it the website will appear there and you can edit files freely, reload the page and see the changes.
This webserver automatically reloads the website when it detects changes to the files, to run it simply open a console on the folder where you downloaded the repository and type:
npx reloadNode will automatically download the server and run it for you, after a few seconds a message will appear prompting you to open http://localhost:8080 on your browser, if you do it the website will appear there and you can edit files freely, the server it will reload the page and you can see the changes.
