Title: Re: Nintendo Power to close it's doors Post by: Crabmaster2000 on August 22, 2012, 06:20:46 AM Sucks to hear, but I cant complain to much since I didnt do anything to help the magazine over the last couple years. The only issues of NP I've picked up over the last 5 years have been Issues 20-100, lol.

Neither did I. I was more bummed when they stopped printing the Weekly World News in hardcopy. None the less, I still have an affinity for the printed page, and while I understand why periodicals are gradually disappearing in hardcopy, I still don't have to like it.

I'm surprised GamePro is still kicking....isn't it? Last I heard they were going quarterly GamePro called it quits at the end of 2011. http://www.gamespot.com/news/gamepro-shutting-down-6346883 Title: Re: Nintendo Power to close it's doors Post by: a_hub10 on August 22, 2012, 04:09:19 PM Well this sucks. I wasn't a subscriber, but I would pick up an issue from time to time.
