The posts may have stopped, but Mario’s greatness lives on.
Thanks for bothering to have a peek here at Coin Heaven, the little corner of the internet where I allow myself to indulge in my lifelong obsession with the Mario games. This, however, will be the last post. Simply put, this blog took up too much time, and between my job, my personal life, and my personal blog, I didn’t have enough hours in the day to do Coin Heaven the way I wanted to.
Apologies for letting this effort end with a whimper instead of a bang. As I’m sure readers have noticed, I stopped posting weeks ago. (And on that note, I’d like to thank joeymartin64 for valiantly keeping tabs on Smash Bros. Brawl goings-on. He’s been the solo Coin Heaven correspondent as of late.) However, the posts will remain online as long as I’m around, so what’s been put online so far will forevermore be available to Mario fans as a resource and a time capsule indicating what Nintendo’s star was like in 2007.
In case readers are interested, I know write a weeklyi(sh) column on Nintendo matters for The Tanooki, a great gaming blog that I could only aspire to with the limited abilities I brought here to Coin Heaven. I’m also continuing to write at my personal blog, Back of the Cereal Box, about all manner of pop culture minutiae — including video games.
Again, thanks for stopping by. This blog may one day be revived in some form , depending on what I’m doing in the future and where I stand with video games. Until then: see you around.

It was always a pleasure to find a new post when I turned on firefox (your site was my homepage). I loved reading your articles, they were about something I loved, well written funny and insightful and Im sad to hear that your stopping at Coin Heaven. I'll follow you over to The Tanooki and hope to see more from you. PS your awesome
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
so sad, a Coin Heaven was great news when i opened my Google Reader to check for new items.
i'll follow you in your other blogs, but that's too sad that CH dies in such a sad way.
however, thanks a lot. you rock!
NOOOOOOOO..
I´am brazilian, but see the blog every day.
PS: Sorry, I learned english yet.
Awwww yeah I'm in colorado read this every day.... So sad I want to do something about it.. I'll post here if I do, maybe start something... But I'm not as good a writer as this site
Well thank you, all of you. This is a nice message to receive. I feel bad if I've disappointed anybody, but this was just too much work in its current form. The bright side is this: the columns I will be writing for The Tanooki will be much along the same lines as what I wrote here, only without the shorter, less significant posts draining my time. And, of course, there's always Mario-related projects that current Coin Heaven staffers and fans may start.
Your site had the best articles on Mario, I'm oddly infatuated with learning about rare/obscure Mario characters and I loved your articles on them. I'll miss opening your site to find new posts, but I'll always have the old ones to read.
Ack.. I just found out about this site and read through them all.
Hope there's to be a renewal sometime in the future :(

It's kinda depressing this site is closing, what with it being one of the nicest and more intelligent Mario sites (Waluigious being the other). I hope it gets revived some time in future, if only because these articles give me something to reply to on my own blog.
