Nintendo Power



Nintendo Power is Nintendo's official magazine in America. It covers all of Nintendo's currently active systems (and some inactive ones, if there is any worthy news), and all of the games on those systems. Nintendo Power contains strategy guides, previews, reviews, and exclusive material not made available to other sources.

Nintendo Power (or NP) recently celebrated its 200th issue in February of 2006, and had a major design overhaul in late 2005.

On Monday October 15th 2007, Nintendo of America sold Nintendo Power to Future USA, a magazine company that produces videogame magazines. The magazine will remain the same except for a few small changes
 * Nintendo Power will not be making the Official Guide's any more
 * Prima will be making the official guides
 * You will not be able to choose a free gift when you subscribe. They choose the gift for you.

Below is a gallery of almost all of the NP covers that Mario & Co. have appeared on. However, many of the newer issues are missing. If anyone has any other scans of ones we do not have, please let us know.
