Vooks (pronounced like books with a V) is a labour of love for all of us here.
A love of all things Nintendo and gaming. All of the team here are dedicated to bringing you the best Nintendo news locally, here in Australia and from around the world. Our review team has hundreds of reviews between them and are all committed to bringing you, the wonderful site visitor, the best of advice on what’s worth spending your money on and what’s not.
The Vooks team is comprised entirely of volunteers. None of us are in the gaming industry, we just love games. Since 2000, we’ve been bringing you the news and reviews in our spare time. So whether you are a long time Nintendo fan, a newcomer to Nintendo, or a lapsed gamer who has picked up a Stylus or a Wii Remote and wants to get back into gaming, we’re here to report.
While many other Nintendo sites have come and gone in Australia we’ve been following Nintendo through the highs and the lows and we’ll be here for a while yet.
So if you visit because of news, reviews, our active community, or listen to our Podcast we hope you enjoy your stay.
