The first ever issue of "Nintendo Power" |
When I was eleven, Nintendo Power was amazing. In fact, I liked it so much that a couple of my friends and I created our own version using "Print Shop" on an Apple IIGS. We called it "N.E.S. News," and I think we even managed to sell a few copies to some other kids in school for about 35 cents each. I was our treasurer, and I kept our finances in a Pringles Potato Chips can. There is also a very good chance that when our reign of publication came to an end (after either 2 or 3 issues, I can't remember) I embezzled all of that money from my two buddies, somewhere in the ballpark of 6 or 7 dollars. I feel a little guilty.
Moving on, this clip is pretty cool. I actually remember all of the covers for the first 35 seconds or so. I must have stopped renewing my subscription in 1990...
