    Is that price per month? No thanks!

    Wish I still had all my Nintendo Power magazines. When I finally stopped subscribing in the mid-90’s I had every one except the first three.

    For those who don’t mind digital versions a certain Archive has the full set.

      The price is a bit steep but it goes towards critical archival work so I can forgive them for it, especially in this economy.
