And has I had never picked a NP up, I was majorly disappointed by the magazine. But, I looked it this way. I bought the Zelda Collecters Disc for $20, and got a free magazine subscription.

One of the strategy guides in the first "new" issue of NP is Killer 7. I guess they are also growing up a bit as well.

BTW, if you have three games registered with Nintendo (which just about everyone should have, to have gotten the Zelda bonus disc), you qualify for a free three-issue trial subscription to "the new" Nintendo Power.
Hypothetically, if I have 4 games registered at Nintendo and I use 3 to get my free issues of Nintendo Power and then in 2 months Nintendo says anyone who has 2 games registered with us will receive a free so-and-so, will I get my so-and-so, or will I only have the equivalent of 1 game registered because I used my other 3 to get Nintendo Power?

For instance, Nintendo offers a new Zelda bonus for having four games registered. I register four games and get it. Later on, Nintendo offers a Metroid bonus for having eight games registered. I just have to register four more games to get a total of eight.

To get the Zelda bonus disc, I think you needed to have "a GameCube and 2 games" registered with Nintendo.
To get that Metroid bonus disc that they had, you needed to have "a GameCube and 5 games" registered. That meant that if you had gotten the Zelda disc (through registering games), you just needed to register three more games to get the Metroid disc.
To get these free issues of Nintendo Power, you need to have "three Nintendo products" registered. I'm pretty sure that means that anyone who registered in order to get the Zelda disc is already qualified (because a GameCube counts as a Nintendo product).
I was already pre-qualified, but I have more than three products registered, so I can't say for sure.
Here's the link to the new Nintendo Power website.

But slowly and surely it made itself more and more commercial and I lost interest. Advertisements filled the pages, original comics were replaced by still-frames of the cartoons, and the strategies which had once seemed so cool to me stopped being cool because I learned that playing games without them was usually more fun. To some degree I just outgrew NP, but to some degree it lost what made it fun to read even though it was basically a big, biased advertisement for Nintendo. When they didn't have any renewal offer that interested me around the time the Cube came out, I quit.
But hey, free magazines, can't beat that! I'm interested to see what the "new" NP is like...I kind of doubt that it will appeal to me, but I have to agree that it's a good thing for them to at least try to change.

Hopefully they'll include the other two Zelda trailers as well, for spits and higgles.

Just checked, Volume 98 has Star Fox 64 on the front, while 109 does have Banjo Kazooie on the front... so yes, I do have both as well.

Store.Nintendo.com offers that as a "back issue" for $5.50. No clue if there's a CD in it though.
Post by: TMW on May 30, 2005, 09:58:27 AM
But, if I had to hazard a guess as to whether or not I'll be getting the CD with the magazine...I'd say no.
It will still be cool to read up on Smash Brothers "before it was released", ya know?

QuoteI may have them. I stopped subscribing to Nintendo Power sometime during the early N64-era. If I do have them, I'll send them to you if you still need them. Only problem is, they're at my parents' house, which I won't be visiting for at least 3 weeks.

Those two issues had my artwork printed in them. My Dad decided to take them to show to others. As Months and Years came to pass. He lost them. So Please help me. If anybody has those issues please tell me and maybe we can work something out.

However, I did a quick eBay search for Nintendo Power Magazine and I came up with a ton of hits. You can usually get at least 12 issues at a time for around five bucks. This one has the GoldenEye issue. This one has 70 issues for $10, and includes both the issues you're looking for. I'm sure you can find on deal on here.
Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

I received my first of 3 free issues the other day and, yes, it included the Zelda E3 trailer DVD. I haven't had the opportunity to watch it yet, but it is there, inside of the magazine. I believe the issue I received is the August 2005 edition of Nintendo Power.

Pheonix Wright Ace Attorney was the one that really impressed me... and Hello Kitty looked a lot less insipid than I expected.
