Planet GameCube is a Nintendo-specific website that covers all of Nintendo's current consoles, including the GBA , Nintendo DS , GameCube , and upcoming Wii . HISTORY Planet GameCube began its life as a small webpage run by Billy Berghammer in his spare time in March 1999. This site was merged with friend Justin Nation's Nintendo site ''OPN2000''. The newly created name, PlanetN2000 , lasted until the unveiling of the Nintendo GameCube, upon which the name was changed to the current Planet GameCube. Shortly after Planet GameCube's fourth birthday in March of 2003, Billy Berghammer retired as Director to become an editor at ''Game Informer'' Magazine's new online branch. Taking over as Director for Berghammer was Jonathan Metts, who had run his own Nintendo website years prior with ''The Nformant''. CONTENT Games reviewed at Planet GameCube are judged based on the following criteria; Graphics, Sound, Control, Gameplay, and Lasting Appeal, although the final score is not averaged from the prior sections. Besides reviews, PGC also features previews, editorials, and other articles dealing with Nintendo's involvement in the gaming industry. WRITINGS STAFF Planet GameCube sports a staff of twenty writers who have appeared in publications such as''N64HQ, 64 Source, Next-Generation Magazine, Nintendo Gamer (Australia), America Online, Fusion's Intelligent Gamer, Prima's N64 Guide, AOL Critics Choice, GamePro'', and many others. They've been cited in major publications such as ''USA Today, MSNBC, CNN, CNN Asia, Famitsu, 64 Dream, and BBC Online''. REFERENCES
