Nintendo World Report began its life as a small webpage run by Billy Berghammer in his spare time in March 1999. Berghammer's site eventually merged with friend Justin Nation's Nintendo site OPN2000 to become PlanetN2000. The site operated under this moniker until the unveiling of the Nintendo GameCube, upon which the name was changed to Planet GameCube. The November 2006 launch of the Nintendo Wii console prompted yet another name change, this time to the platform-agnostic Nintendo World Report.
Shortly after the site's fourth birthday in March 2003, Billy Berghammer retired as Director to become an editor at Game Informer magazine's new online edition. Taking over as Director for Berghammer was Jonathan Metts, who had run his own Nintendo website years prior with The Nformant. On November 16th, 2006 the site announced that Metts was stepping down as Director, transitioning to a more scaled-back role as Reviews Editor. Long-time staff member Steven Rodriguez assumed the role of website Director
