    you might want to launch a more general site targeted at the gaming market and then have a wii section. just an idea to help broaden your potential audience.

    Site design is good but horizontal scrolling should be controlled. other than that good work with content and layout.

    Yes...You should be able to make money with that site. As to how much it all depends on if you're getting qualified traffic.

    You can definitely make money on that website. I suggest you blog much, much more and write lots of quality posts. One tip could be to write a "cheat-post" for every game you talk about. Zelda: Twilight princess cheats (kind of) and you link it from your post. Sounds good to me... :)

    You can make a lot of money if you have a lot of traffic.To have a a lot of traffic,try posting "hot" topic like latest games or cheats.Don't forget to seo your site.

    You have a nice looking site. If you can match customers with products and out compete your competition then you are in. But you're in a competitive niche.

    I like to say... it's the carpenter not the tool. What can you do... I dunno.

    The competition is quite large when it comes to Wii fansites, but if you try your best and promote the site daily, you should be able to slip by. Traffic = money.

    I think you should try Google Affiliate Network. It has much more advertiser than anybody else... and it's Google we're talking about. They pay you to your adsense account. Try that out!

    When somebody clicks your referral link, and they buy the product you're promoting, you get paid like... 12% of what the game costs. One more thing... edit your signature. Instead of having "Here are MINE!" as the text, edit it to "Top ten Wii Games or top ten nintendo wii games".

    The site has a lot of potential, I can see it growing nicely in a timely fashion. What have you been doing for promotion?
