may not have been able to get us interested in reading, but damned if
Nintendo couldn't! Nintendo Power was THE magazine to have. When that
first issue came out with the in-depth look at Super Mario Bros. 2, the
decision was already made. I would subscribe to this magazine and live by
the words contained within it. Full color maps, letters from completely
obsessed gamers (no, I never wrote them), game popularity rankings,
previews of upcoming games, posters, and advertisements for more Nintendo products
in just about every paragraph... Nintendo Power really had it all.
