GoNintendo 'End of Day' thought - Thanks for your E3 support!

Thursday is here already? This E3 news really keeps things moving fast! I'm more tired than usual, but the new details that come out every day make the lack of sleep worth it! It also means I have to get every hour I can! See you in a few, short hours.

This E3 was a big change for me. I wasn't actually attending the show this year due to Nintendo's lack of traditional press conference. That, factored in with the lack of multiple roundtables and cost of trip pushed me into covering the show from home. It was the first time in the 8 years of GoNintendo that I haven't attended.

I certainly did miss attending, but working from home made it much easier to keep up with the flow of news. There was certainly no shortage of info to cover, with details from the event still pouring out. It was hectic in a completely different way, but I did the best I could do and sure felt the certain type of E3 stress, even though I wasn't anywhere near California!

None of that matters, though. That's just my bit of backstory to lead into my purpose of this End of Day thought. I wanted to thank you guys and gals for supporting the site during E3 time. The week of the show saw a massive boost in traffic. We always have good numbers, but I'm so happy to see that even more of you came by for the E3 madness. Knowing that you feel like GoNintendo is a good place to visit for E3 news really makes me smile.

Even better, more of you are sticking around after E3! I'd like to thank you all for that continued support. From fans that have been here since day one to newcomers that just joined us, I want you to know that I appreciate the time you spend here. You could go anywhere on the net you want, but some of that time you swing by this old joint. It's humbling to say the least.

I can't believe I've been doing this for as long as I have, but it's all because of the great group of people that visit GN. I've made great friends, and hope to make many more. You're a great group of people. Every corner of the net has some bad apples, but the wonderful lot of you far outnumber any riff-raff that shows up. Thanks for being you and being awesome.
