How many of you have seen, bought or have this magazine which weighs a pound and has 90 Reviews of NES games.

 

Its a very nice piece to have in your collection...

 

Im in the current process of buying one and I would like for somebody who has this to run me down some of the titles in this Magazine??

I have 2 copies, one which I bought from Toys R Us when it was out and a second coopy I got a few years aho. The first copy was well worn and well used it's got tapes to hold in pages. The second copy is near mint and still has the original sticker sheet intact.

 

I can't remember where they are but some of the games I remember includes: Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros, Metroid, Goonies II, Rygar, and Pro Wrestling and several more games. Plus they did a short review for many more games near the end of the magazine. Despite the numerous typos, it's still fun to read them once in a while.
