I know these news are kinda old... still... pretty sad. I really liked her articles and reviews and she was overall a very cheerful editor.

IGN has no longer a Nintendo Team.

I really wonder why all the Nintendo writers for the site left.

I LOVE ICELAND!

Was not a fan of her at all to be honest, felt her reviews had a lot of bias in them, especially when she would criticize games on other systems for mechanics that she would praise on nintendo's systems.

I thought IGN hadn't had a dedicated Nintendo team for a while now? The Nintendo subsections brought in a downright pitiful amount of the site's total traffic at one point (something on the order of 2-3%), so it would make sense...

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Well, in her case, she got a really awesome job. (Localization in the Nintendo Treehouse)

Wow, that's awesome! Good for her.

I always found her not quite grounded enough as a reviewer, but she seemed nice.
