The impossible 4 finally United! Only person in the world with all 4?

 

Amazing Jeff!  Phenomenal feat in itself. 

I've got these printouts form an old Zelda Universe website with walkthroughs for Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons.  Anyone want them before I feed them back to earth? 

Shoot me a message and cover shipping and they are yours!  About 60 pages of information. 

@RH 

If you chose select, you're looking at 6 months + likely on turnaround time.  They may have scanned it in accidentally.  Turbo is taking about 60 business days with maybe a few extra days for finalization and shipping.  Speed runs are pretty on point for 15 business days with maybe one or two extra days to get into a FedEx truck and on its way I've found the last few.  Warp Zone, I'm sure they are always on top of given the high dollar amount.  

I personally am happy to see them halt to re-evaluate their processes and hopefully simultaneously get caught up a little bit so they can get everything squared away for the new year.  I am also hoping they can permanently open up the DS / 3DS category soon too as I know I've seen a few pop up here and there but it is so short lived.

Were these the absolute first books Prima published? Or were there other video game or non-video game books before this?

There were others before.  They did a full run of four books for NES as well.  

Very cool!  Thank you for sharing this.  The Sega Genesis volumes are a little interesting as the Volume 5 dipped out of the traditional Sega Genesis secrets to capture some Sega CD action too.  

They also published a Prima Sega CD (secrets of the game) which only made it one volume I believe.  Kind of random

In an effort to get this list back up and available.  Please see the revised / updated / NEW Newsletters list of the past.  This list is specifically around the NES / Sega Genesis / SNES / N64 era.  We didn't quite get into old Atari or anything mid to early 1980s.  That can be a discussion for later.  

Unfortunately no cover pics yet either.  Still have to work those in as thumbnails at a later date.  If you have anything to add, please comment!  WOuld love to know about other issues maybe we don't have listed or you have seen and can help develop this master list.

Yeah here is a pic of the cover below. I am guessing maybe they included it with late-run premier issues AND issue #2. Also, any thoughts on including the 7 issues of Fun Club News that pre-dated the debut of Nintendo Power? They really were the beginning of the magazine.  

Very interesting picture for sure!  I'd say your right as it probably was very near the end of issue one / beginning of issue 2 for that to happen. 

I am hesitant on getting the Fun Club News issues in here as they were Newsletters and I still need to get a formal newsletter list going.  Which probably I should just do now I suppose.  Be on the lookout!

I recently rediscovered my NP magazines, and I found two posters loose. One of them I identified as the mario poster from issue 260 with the help of this list, but I can't figure out the other one for sure. It's a metroid poster with a 2010 copyright, so I'm guessing it came from issue 255 with the other m cover, but there's no posters listed for that issue. Does anyone know? 

Here's the smoking gun image we can reference now ... sealed issue of 258 shows sticker for Other M poster (Rivin wins!)

Just ran across this site while researching different things about Nintendo Power. Not counting all the variants, just issue numbers, I only have like 17 issues of Nintendo Power left to find, and the first 3 issues of Funclub News. Just to start off, I think the Funclub News issues should be included as they birthed NP...any thoughts? Also, I have the premier issue of NP in quite good shape except the 2 inserts and poster/map are not attached (but are included) and the poster/map and Players poll insert have some carefully placed tape on them...BUT I also have a really beat up premier copy with the poster/ map and 2 inserts missing and that one has a Mario sticker on the front that states “Insiders Calendar”. I notice that this item is included as a variant of issue #2, but I believe this shows it also came with some issues of volume #1. Just my 2-cents for now, curious to hear thoughts.

Interesting.  I had always assumed it was with volume 2 and never had seen a sticker on volume 1 for the calender.  Can you post a pic of this? 


Also, updated my table above for Issue 251 .... Gold Lightan's counterpart is PTX-40A Ivan. 
- For what it's worth, I don't know if my table will hold up as being 100% true.  Can anyone send me a message with a formal list of characters from the game?  (Tatsunoko vs Capcom)

ME here as well.  Love any tips as I'll be taking the PE exam in February likely.  Just starting to study and get ready ..... wish it was over already!

Glad to see you sharing the info @mideast!  I want that Earthworm Jim strategy guide, though.  I don't have that one yet.  That thing looks awesome.  

I also have noticed this card getting up there for value.  That graded one sold for over $500 a while back too.  It is pretty crazy seeing the overlap that is starting to happen between the different disciplines and this is a prime example.  

PAPER FOR LYFE!

Thanks for the tag @Foochie776!

Hey guys! After looking for this same list that was on NA, I realized that website is gone now! After a little bit of searching I discovered this site and just joined it. There is so much good information here.

Glad to see some others taking interest!  Well the good news / bad news.....  I've been working on getting these card variants worked through .... I believe there is a total of 14 variants for the card.  Given that there are 28 characters in the game, they all have a character pairing:  one from Tatsunoko and one from Capcom.  

I have confirmed 10 so far and still need to see the last four to see if my theory proves true.  @MiamiSlice@doner24

If anyone has any that aren't green, I'm a buyer! 

Everytime I come back to this thread I be like .... 

You all are getting crazy up in here. 

updated sold and added a few WATA titles.  HMU!

I considered going along with that, however, we may want to except a general sized box rather than priority.  Paper is media, ergo, it can be a media mail box.

Depending on how many people sign up, it could be a box that makes it way through the list over a six month time period.....

Paper box could be a good idea 

Always a great idea!  

I'm in !

A cart variant I did not see on your list. You have to look close to see it!

Ah yes, the infamous you(r) mom version.  

Love it Jeff!

That's right!  Well he probably should gift you a bottle to gift to me then.  Sounds like the right move for him

ETA:  I feel like this will be my nickname when I get older... GhostWood  

@Reed Rothchild - I expect a hand delivered, hand wrapped small box from you with a bottle of whiskey.  That's all I want for Christmas .... the box can be empty.
