Update: Since this piece went live a short time ago, it has been confirmed to us that the Forest of Illusion's removal from the internet is not related to any kind of copyright takedown.

An official statement has been published on Archive.org:

"As we reach the end of a 6-year journey dedicated to game preservation, we must regretfully announce the closure of Forest of Illusion. We've come to the decision that we can no longer keep the site running. This is for a few reasons, but is primarily due to not being able to provide the necessary time and energy needed to maintain our cherished platform. We express our sincerest gratitude to our supporters and followers. Thank you for being part of this extraordinary adventure, and thank you to all past and present patrons who helped us get to where we are."

Original Story: Forest of Illusion, a famous site devoted to documenting and preserving all sorts of Nintendo history, has seemingly vanished from the internet (thanks, Lost Nintendo History).

The site has gone and was briefly joined by its Twitter account, which has almost 50,000 followers; this was later reactivated. togemet2 – one of the people behind the site – has said that it's unlikely Forest of Illusion will return.
