The Four Parks Update and Possible Name Change or Closure

Okay I'm in need of some help. Recently the website has become mostly gaming related and I was wondering what you readers may think of going solely gaming with a few non game things thrown in for good taste. Also if I do that I'm going to have to redesign the logo and I will change the color scheme. Also If I want to change the name I will have to buy a custom domain or else I will lose readers coming hear from  thefourparksandmore.blogspot.com URL. Also with that domain I need a new name and I don't don't what something Nintendo related could be. Please tell me what you think. Big changes may be coming but I'm going to take it slowly. I used to average at around 400-500 views a month but now it is over 1000. One last thing, I'm not sure I want to continue working on this blog and I a feeling a little lost. I'm not really sure if anyone likes this blog so I'm thinking of just Any advice would be helpful and thank-you for your continued readership.

Super Mario 3D Land Review

An outstanding game

The tanooki suit is both helpful and super cute.

"Super Mario 3D Land is not only the best game on the 3DS, but one of the best games ever.
Super Mario 3D Land follows the story everyone knows: Peach is kidnapped and Mario saves her. As always the characters and levels themselves are charming and Mario in his tanooki suit is just plain cute along with fantastic environments that provide fun platforming challenges..."
