Nintendo the laziest company? I mean they haven't made a new original game since 1985

From what I remember, the magazine stopped being produced in-house ages ago. NSider was also somewhat linked to NP, so I'm also angry at them for closing that down. In short, I don't give a fluff.

The closing of NSider was due to Nintendo Power being sold to Future US. At least that's what I always figured.

You're right that they were linked. NSider was basically the forum of Nintendo Power, not Nintendo.

That's a shame. I've still got my NP magazines from the 90s.

I got the magazines as a younger kid D:

I still have some from the like 2008's and 2009's.

I've probably got a box worth of the more recent Future ones and a small handful of older ones. :/ Never could get my parents to subscribe me to that even when I gave them the money for it, so the few older ones I got I cherished reading.

 

[Prof Gallows]

I think he meant does the US have a Nintendo magazine anymore. I would assume not, since Nintendo Power was the only one.

Gallows said what I meant.

Wow, that's unfortunate then.
I'd hate to see Official Nintendo Magazine over here die out..
Then I'd have to resort to -shudders- Nintendo Gamer.

I buy Official Nintendo Magazine and Nintendo Gamer every month.
