Some of the chatter on forum posts have questioned what PNM can offer that is different from other online gaming sites. We want to reassure you that we do have official support from Nintendo to run PNM. We have full rights to use the name, and we are working closely with Nintendo's legal and PR teams to guarantee that PNM will feature plenty of exclusive content not available anywhere else.
Many fans have also mentioned that one of the things they disliked about NP was that they didn't focus enough on third party content. Because PNM is "by fans, for fans", third party titles and game studios will be featured just as prominently. We already have contacts inside several studios developing titles for Wii U and 3DS, and are working hard to gain more.
Thanks for all you do, and please continue to spread the word!
Just don't give it to anyone that posted about how print is deadI went ahead and pledged. I really think the reward tiers they set up are unappetizing. They really need more at like the $25, 35, 45, 70 levels.Glad you chose to sign up. I saw your - quite astute - suggestion about having an $40 level so you could treat a friend, and how they implemented it. Nice
Yeah, well, now I have an extra PNM subscription and no idea what I'm going to do with it! LOL!
Oh wait, no one here said those words. I was thinking of another site.

I think the only problem with this kickstarter is the dollar amount to get it funded and perhaps how much time is left. These types of Kickstarters need to get lots of exposure and I am about to look around right now to see where exactly where it has been posted. I know when it started it had a month to get it funded for that amount so judging from that I guess that it hasn't been spread around much.You're right Maxi, they're running out of steam and also running out of time. This is what kinda baffles me. I mostly frequent NinTemple.com (where you know me under the same name) but I took the time to start threads at two other sites (here and at Neg World). I looked around some larger sites and and don't see anything. Why wouldn't PNM start threads at some of the bigger video game forums out there? I've only checked a couple of sites but they would've been the obvious choices. Oh well.
To be honest I've been considering subscribing to other Nintendo magazines now that NP is ceasing publication. I was actually looking at importing the UK's NGamer/Nintendo Gamer a while back, but even THAT magazine isn't printing anymore!!!Yes the price for imported Nintendo mags are truly high. All the more reason to support Pure Nintendo Magazine. Plus PNM has added some new rewards for people that support this project. Please check it out and support!
What magazines are left guys? I'm now contemplating importing the UK's Official Nintendo Magazine...
Great googoo-moogoo the price to import these things will give me a heart attack...
I personally think this is a good idea for a few reasons. Websites can get pretty messy if you are looking for something very specific and from something very old. At times many articles online have been erased from existence while that can't be true for magazines.Agreed.
As for the messy part you have to go through so many links and such to find what you want and thinks aren't as organized as they should be I feel.
I proposed something like this be done back when it was announced Nintendo Power was going to be shut down. No one even responded to my proposal.Well I guess these guys agreed with you. Good idea!
Unlikely, but possible, future Wii "swan songs":Faith in GameStop managers isn't waning is it? Ya gotta keep believin' man!
Pandora's Tower
hope for the best! 
Ah, I'm so excited for this. Though this comes only a year after Kirby's Epic Yarn, I'm really happy to see another Kirby platormer on a Nintendo home console. Kirby's Adventure is one of my favorite games for the Nintendo Entertainment System, and I hope this Kirby game for Wii will live up to it.
Yeah, but McDonalds is a multi-billion dollar international mega corp so they can afford it. Gamestop may be great to their employees (I never worked there, so I have no idea), but its not a good thing for consumers. Supporting the small shops promotes competition in the market place which puts pressure on gamestop to change their ways, and if they don't then consumers now have another option. So that's why supporting small business is a good thing.
[/size] [/size]its always morally better to support small business
It's as objective as the original statement of "it's completely worth it if for the magazine subscription alone."
Everyone defending GameStop is wrong. Everyone saying they suck is right, it really doesn't matter what your reason for saying they suck is, because they do. Period.
[font=helvetica, arial, 'liberation sans', sans-serif]First off, a print subscription to a gaming news magazine is not worth $15.. or even $5. Bleh. [/font][font=helvetica, arial, 'liberation sans', sans-serif]
