That's awesome. Is it out on newstands yet?
I think I want that.
Shyeaaah i need to go grab that.
At least it doesn't have Pokemon on it.
Looks like it's out December 11th.
Yea, I'll walk to bookworld to pick that one up. :)
I stopped getting Nintendo Power when it was nothing but pokemon bullshit, otherwise I'd have that! RIGHT NOW
I'm getting that as well. I haven't subscribed in years, but it is still sad to see it go.
I remember when I subscribed I got Dragon Warrior for free or real cheap and when I finally got to play it that was just an awesome day.
Edited: for spelling
I wounder if i will get my subscription copy sooner, than the store print
Great send-off...
That is a very cool send off. I've had subscriptions to Nintendo Power off and on for years. My first gaming magazine was the issue of Nintendo Power with Links Awakening as the cover. I know the internet is quickly replacing print magazines as the primary source of up to date information, but there is just something about holding the magazine that I will always enjoy. To see Nintendo Power leaving the print world it really makes me wonder which of the remaining magazines will be next.
I had a sub from around 91-96 and I will be picking this issue up.
I loved NP :)
It's sending it of like it came in... Not bad
I picked up the last few issues of Nintendo Power for nostalgia sake. The magazine is quite frankly awful. I have a really hard time reading it cover to cover and there is typically very little I enjoy anymore.
With that said, I am sad to see it go. The Final Fantasy guide was probably the most used hint book of my gaming life. I will definitely be picking up the final issue, reading it with disgust, and then sadly saying goodbye to an old friend.
Wish I knew where my original Nintendo Power was. I think I got it for free because the Nintendo Fun Club magazine(or whatever it was called) was discontinued, so they gave me a free copy of the first issue of Nintendo Power. Reminds me of how I'd really like them to do a sequal to Doki Doki Mario Panic!
I read and re-read the original issue of Nintendo Power a billion times back in the day.
I love the final cover. Quite à propos.
Has anybody seen this in stores yet? I went to Barnes & Noble last night and they didn't have any. I went across the street to Target and they only had the second-to-last issue.
Any luck?
