mideast | 144 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 (edited) Calling all Super Power Club members! This post is intended to be supplementary to @Bubbapauls's Nintendo Power Trading Cards thread. These are hi-resolution scans of all cards in my own collection, as well as scans available from Nintendo Power issues on archive.org. There are 27 cards and 4 variants that are missing. Just as Nintendo Power advised their readers, trade with your friends! Submit any hi-resolution scans that are missing. The Super Power Club Trading Cards started in Nintendo Power #41 (October 1992) as a contest every month to give away up to 500 Super Nintendo games. The fine print actually says “This Game Pak will be a Super Nintendo title that may have been used in a Nintendo display at a retail outlet; Game Pak may say Demo-Not For Resale.” A winning combination of three trading cards would be announced every month to send in for the free SNES game. The trading club cards only came in Nintendo Power issues through the mail, not ones bought in stores, since you became a Super Power Club member by being a subscriber. Cards 1-72 were put randomly in a sheet at the end of the magazine until a year later in Nintendo Power #53 (October 1993) when they announced the second set which would start with number 73. They also eliminated the monthly SNES contest and removed the contest rules from the sheets. There was no further announcement, but I’ve noticed that issues 65-69 contain cards 140-170. I haven’t found higher number cards before those issues. The cards were discontinued after Nintendo Power #69 (February 1995). Click on the thumbnails for a link to imgur albums in groups of tens which include the front and back of cards. A full list of cards is at the bottom, cards that are missing hi-res scans are in bold. UPDATE: Thanks to @BlueBombers we're up to only 1 card missing (Marble Madness) and 4 variants!! 104 from my collection, 43 from archive.org, and 26 from BlueBombers. Fun Fact: Card #85 says The Legend of Zelda was released as a launch title in October 1985! (OOPS!) Card #150 which is also The Legend of Zelda corrects this.

Are you planning on finishing your collection ? Thanks! Just 104 of the cards are from my own collection. The others I found on archive.org. I'm actually keeping them mostly still in sheets attached to the Nintendo Power issues. So I was hoping to get them scanned so I can have them on my computer. Do you happen to have any missing ones you can scan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBombers | 6 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I definitely have some missing cards but I don’t have any way to scan the them, only way would be to take a picture of them. Here is an example of the best I can do. I’m still learning how to post/ navigate these message boards so if I do something wrong let me know, I appreciate any help.

Gloves | 11,776 Administrator · Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 FYI @BlueBombers I highly suggest using some external image hosting for this. VGS compresses your images - they will be downsized to a set maximum width Youll eventually run out of space for uploading images on the site (you get 200mb) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBombers | 6 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Sorry if I did something wrong, all I have is my smart phone and I barely know how to work that some days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong or anything, just some suggestions. If you're taking high res images, just know that they won't be as high res on here. I saw hi-resolution in the thread title and figured you were going for that. You do have plenty of space to store images, really, so the second point might be moot - I'm unaware of how many of these you plan to upload. If you can manage it, I'd suggest installing the IMGUR app on your phone, uploading your images there (for this thread), and then sharing the link to the bucket of images. You CAN keep going with what you're doing and likely nobody will mind. These are just potential improvements I'm suggesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mideast | 144 Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 @BlueBombers That was great!! If my calculations are correct you added 23 of the 27 cards that were missing. Honestly, I'm happy with the image quality. They look really good considering you're taking photos right? The only one I'd like you to retake if you're able to is Tecmo Super Bowl, all the rest look superb. As for the image space, maybe you can ask @Gloves if he can delete the images for you to make more space on your account? I already downloaded them all and am planning to upload them to imgur myself to add to the original post. And I'll credit you for the additions!!

BlueBombers | 6 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Yes I did just take pictures with my phone, I’ll be able to retake that picture no problem. I’m not sure about the image space your talking about, is there only a limit to the amount of pictures you can put on the messages? And why/how do I ask @ gloves to delete them?

Well like he said you get 200mb total upload space, so eventually later on you'll run out of space. And I already downloaded them so we don't need them on the comments section. He'll either reply in the comments, or maybe click on his profile and send him a private message? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,776 Administrator · Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I'm always available, you can message me, @ me, whatever works for you. That said, @BlueBombersyou've used 4% so far. It really comes down to if you plan to upload photos often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
