First Impression
"I like everything below the header...and the black background actually clashes. Who knew?"
Design
The main page is brilliant. I love how clean it is, and I love Yoshi at the bottom. Very nice job. Here's my main riff. Let's start with the background: It doesn't match. I know black goes with everything, but there's just not enough of it in your design to use a black one. I would say, go for blue or green, depending on preference. Or heck, get a game sponsor and put an ad back there, gamespot style.
Now, the header could use some love. It just doesn't look as nice as the footer. I'm not a fan of the font. The graphic is cool, but not quite "there." Spend a little more time, I'm sure it will look awesome. Remember that you need to brand your stuff to grow. Right now you aren't.
Content
Nice grammar. Your about and information pages are all in tact, and that makes me happy.  Now, just link gather. You have a limited amount. Perhaps provide links for free with recipricol? The price is extremely competitive. ($1/1 month? Sign me up, I've got twelve bucks!) Just work hard and I'm sure it will grow.
Would I Use It?
I don't have a game site, but if you make one for webmasters, hook me up.
Overall
The presentation is awesome, but fix up the header and choose a background that pulls the whole concept together. A little more work and you'll be fine!
