NIWA can have quite a few more members, though there are not any ones developed...

I created this a few weeks ago, and I am the only user to make more than a few edits. When it grows big enough, I plan to move it to independence.

It took a few weeks to hunt down all those wikia links at Nookipedia.

Well, it is not dead. They just added the forums recently, so at least they are taking a big step.

Ice Climber - I would love to see a new Ice Climber game on the Wii/3DS. It only had three games, Ice Climber [1985] (NES), Ice Climber-e (E-Reader/GBA) and available as one of the "classic NES GBA games" (I cannot remember the title), all are based on the original NES game.

Startropics - I don't know much about this game and have never played this or the sequel; the last title was in 1994 - Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics II.

Clu Clu Land/Devil World - These were basically Pacman style games, I've played Clu Clu Land, but not Devil World. Of course, some elements from these games were incorporated into the Super Smash Bros. series; the unused Tamagon trophy in SSBM (which was removed in the PAL release), a Bubbles trophy and the inclusion of the  Unira item and Devil assist trophy in SSBB. Neither Clu Clu Land or Devil World went relatively far, with the NTSC Devil World suffering partly because of religious concerns. Clu Clu Land has had three games; the original NES game (1984), Clu Clu Land: Welcome to New Clu Clu Land (1992) - a Super Famicom game (JPN only, but available on Animal Crossing as Clu Clu Land D) and a port "Clu Clu Land-e" of the original Clu Clu Land available for the Game Boy Advance as an E-reader game (2003). Bubbles is an unlockable character in DK King of Swing. Devil World has only had one game released in Japan for the Famicom in 1984 and Europe for NES in 1987. It was never released outside of Europe and Japan because of strict religious guidelines; RE: its inclusion of the Devil, the Bible and Cross. I don't even recall it making one small, minor cameo appearance except for the unused Tamagon trophy and Devil assist trophy in the SSB series.

R.O.B - "R.O.B games" included Gyromite and Stackup. I never played any of those games and never got a R.O.B, but it would be interesting to see remakes of the original games.

Balloon Fight - There was Tingle's Balloon Fight as late as 2007 but it was only available to members Club Nintendo [JPN], other than that the last game was Japanese exclusive Balloon Fight GB (2001), a graphically enhanced version of Balloon Kid (1990-1991). I've only had the chance to play Balloon Fight and Balloon Kid. Balloon Kid unlike the original Famicom/NES Balloon Fight was a side-scrolling adventure style game instead of an arcade-style game like the original. It was only released outside of Japan until the release of special edition Balloon Fight GB though there was an earlier Famicom version Hello Kitty World (1992), which replaced all the original Balloon Kid characters and some of the objects/enemies =/.

Drill Dozer - Released for the GBA in 2005 (JPN) and 2006 (US). It was never released in Europe. Rather nice gameplay, developed by Game Freak.

Duck Hunt - I'd like to see a Duck Hunt game on the Wii, but I don't know whether it would go too far.

Space Fever - A very early game series based on Space Invaders released by Nintendo in 1979 (JPN) and 1980 (NTSC).  It would be interesting to see a revival of the series but it would probably be too similar to Star Fox and X. The series included a special edition "SF-Hisplitter" and there was one cameo appearance; a game called "Space Fever II" built into the Game Boy Camera (1998) and at the end of each 'stage' you would face a boss with one of the GameBoy Camera developer's faces or your own.

Probably deserves more attention outside of Japan

Starfy - There hasn't been even one Starfy game released here in Europe, not even the only NTSC title in the series, "The Legendary Starfy". Starfy has had three Game Boy Advance games and two DS games, with only the latest DS game being released outside of Japan (in fact even before the Japan release itself). Apparently the other games were rejected by Nintendo of America for being "too Japanese".

Earthbound - Last game was a port of Mother and Earthbound released only in Japan, June 2003 and re-released as a Value Selection game on February 2003. I'd love to be able to play at least one Earthbound game =[.

Captain Rainbow - Only released in Japan for the Wii (2008), is an adventure/action game.

Shin Onigashima - I don't know much about this game but it was rather successful, albeit a little hard apparently. Series has made various cameo appearances,

Sennen Kazoku - A life simulation game only released in Japan for the GBA (2005). Basically, by orders from God, Cupid watches down on a family. They will live on independently but their actions can be changed by firing arrows to change their emotions. The aim of the game is to keep the family going on for many generations to come. Rather strange, but I like the concept.

X - The original X was released for Japan in May 1992, gameplay is similar to Star Fox. A spiritual sequel, X-Scape was released in May 2010 for DSiWare. It is called X-Returns in Japan and 3D Space Tank in PAL regions.

Tomato Adventure - Developed by Alpha Dream and released for the GBA in Janurary 2002. The Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga game engine is based on this game IIRC.

Doshin the Giant - Released for the 64DD only in Japan with an expansion and later for the GameCube in 2002. A GameCube version was released in Europe but never localized for the US. A life simulation game with potential but reviews were mixed, it was a hit game in Japan but not so successful in the UK.

Fire Emblem in the Japan section. There are 13 games in the series, with only 5 worldwide releases. Yet on still has time to come out worldwide. And I hope the Sin & Punishment N64 translate was not just a one-time thing.

I really want to play EB, but I can only find it for $150... or more. Is the game really worth $1000? I doubt it, but I am willing for 150...

WAIT!!! I just realized, I have $98! Now, I just need to wait until my mom has cash...

I too will be leaving. I will check the forums periodically, but my role will shift from an active poster/contributor to a passive observer. You can still contact me on Palutenapedia if you have anything to tell me. I will be spending some more time on that wiki along with Torchickens's Balloon Fight Wiki.  If any members create a new wiki on wikkii.com, I will gladly help them out (please relay this message to any new members who join after I leave). Whenever possible, I try to match whatever investment (as far as time and effort goes) they put into the wiki.

As a final contribution before I leave, I would like to tell you guys about an independent video game wiki network that I found. Some of you may have already found it, but here it is just in case: Wikitoria. It has a Soul Calibur Wiki, a Tekken Wiki, and a meta-wiki hosted by the alliance. It centers around fighting games, so maybe Smash Wiki could join. I was waiting to announce my discovery until after they finished the work on their homepage, but NIWA is entering a transitional period that I'd rather observe than take part in. I do plan to return after everything has settled down.

On a side note, I am working on a top secret project that I think will help NIWA. If things go as planned, expect an announcement in late February or early March.

OMG! I just started a new wiki today!

TTYD; best VC game...well, technically it's the only one I've got but meh, I think it's the best.
He's talking about the original Paper Mario. TTYD was for the Gamecube. They're both pretty great, and my favorite Mario series for sure!
I know, I was talking about another game; the most awesome (IMO).
Jake, I would think that a Mario Wiki staff member would know what system a Mario game is on...

Anyways, Mario Kart 64 is awesome. I wish Earthbound was there, because $300 is too much for the game (so say my parents)...
