Vooks is 15 years old today – be part of the celebration

Fifteen years ago, half my life time ago the site you know today as Vooks came to life.

You know the story of the website, you’ve been here a while just like we have. You know what we do, the news, the reviews, features, guides – but most of all the community.

But the community of Vooks isn’t something we do – its you – the person reading this right now and the person who visits our site, reads and watches our content. Over the years we’ve had forums, we’ve had chat rooms, we’ve had actual live interactions at events and parties. With social media we’re closer than ever before, we’re all here because we love Nintendo so we all get along too.

So for our 15th we will be running some competitions for you guys and gals, we will be looking back on the past and toward the future of Nintendo but first we thought we would celebrate the community.

Help us create an awesome 15th Birthday card

To that end we want to create a birthday card of sorts for the site. One of our readers – one of the Vooks community Kieran came to me a while back with some new logo designs. Those designs are now part of the site in the form of the bookmark and social media icons, and its also going to be part of the birthday card.

We’re going to fill the square around the V with you. We want pictures of you playing Nintendo, your Nintendo collection, your cosplay, your event photos, your favourite Nintendo moment – from whenever you like.

We’d love for your to share your photos on Facebook, on Twitter or you can email them to us if you prefer. Don’t worry about image size, the bigger the better and we’ll put it all together. Hashtag it on Twitter and Instagram with #Vooks15 so we can find it!

Before you go just a reminder there are some Vooks shirts to buy if you’d like to support the site, otherwise there is our Patreon as well. All funds from these go back into running the site.

Thanks for reading the site and being a part of the community. Look for more 15th Birthday fun coming over the next few weeks, it’ll be fun!

So from myself and the rest of our awesome team – thanks for being a part of all of this!

Thanks,

Daniel ‘VOOK’ Vuckovic and the team.
