The New Nintendo Gamer Magazine - it's retrotastic!

[RetroBob]

Ok so I've read a bit of it now and I have to say it's nice to read a magazine that has some personality and fun in it (RG another example of course) - it's making me wonder why the censored I still have a subscription to gamesTM. I'm not a massive Nintendo guy, but yeah, I''ll buy it again... Nintendo Gamer gets a thumbs up from me.

Is anyone still buying/reading this?

I've picked up every issue since the relaunch and am still liking it.

[RetroBob]

Yes I am, definitely a convert to this mag - I love how retro the mag is without being specifically a retro mag! I think it's just down to the staffers knowing their history.

Thinking about subscribing but I'd rather wait for a freebie I'd be interested in than Metroid: Other M.

Yep, still buying it & still enjoying it. I wonder what the sales figures are. I'd hope that they're on the increase as it's a fine magazine with heaps to read.

I hope the revamp has lead to an expanded readership, it would be absolutely criminal if Nintendo Gamer dipped below the 7,745 (an annual circulation figure) that audit bureau ABC published in December last year.

Still doesn't approach N64 Magazine though. That was a one-time only publication (that ran for five years, yes, but you know what I mean).

best off getting a sub when theres nothing 'free' as its normally a lot cheaper, the think one i got is £9 every 3 issues, although im on the verge on cancelling it as the post man like to snap spines!

Started reading the last few issues and it's ok, a big step up from ngamer at least. The latest issue is a bit sparce, they'll have trouble until the wii u is out and there's something to talk about. Nintendo must have relaxed their policies, i thought non official magazines couldn't use nintendo in the title?

I'm waiting to subscribe as I already own Metroid: Other M and the Wii bag is not something that I would ever use. I'll wait until a decent free gift comes along or a cheaper offer without a gift.

I'm enjoying reading it so far, the Timesplitters article was good but the top 25 lists they do leave a lot to be desired.
