Nintendo Wiki (N Wiki for short) is a website where you can essentially gather info about Nintendo ranging from mainstream info such as the games, and people who work for the company, to the most obscure info like patents, and interesting trivia. It was set up using MediaWiki technology; this means that anyone can edit the Nintendo-focused encyclopedia upon registering.
