Nintendo Power!

Nintendo Power has done it again! Never before did I know this!

We've all heard about the whole "holding down Z at GC startup" thing, but did you know that if you hold down all 4 Z buttons on 4 controllers, it does a THIRD sound!?!? I kid you not.

Also, it seems that they hired new people from the last time I cared enough to read one of my monthy NP's. Now it seems like they have somewhat cooler people in the message section. Check it out.

"I'm writing to tell you that one of the reasons I like your magazine so much is because you're not just a bunch of fanboys/girls ranting and raving about how Nintendo is the best thing ever. I get so fed up with magazines dedicated to the Xbox and PS2 because every single one of them seems to spend half the magazine explaining why their console is better. I don't buy a magazine to have my opinion swayed to like one console more than another. It seems that if someone is buying a magazine dedicated to one system, they probably already own that system."

and the NP's said:

The Playstation 2 eats small children and the Xbox will give you brain trauma if it falls on your head.

Me: They seem to be getting closer to the people at Adult Swim. I think that's awesome. They used to be all, bla bla, yap yap, dribble dribble dribble!

Here's another one.

"I have one big problem with Tales of Symphonia! Why do the characters look like they just learned how to ride a two-wheeler? The hand-drawn promotional art is great, but what's up with the in-game art? What kind of "responsible" adult would give children swords and knives!?! The gameplay is terrific, astounding and amazing, but I think a small child running at you with a sword is scary yet confusing."

NP:

If a child runs at you with a sword, just feed it to the nearest Playstation 2.


Yay Nintendo Power!!!

By the way, ever since my lunch period at school, I've worn this tag that says Jennie O. Tender Brown Turkey. And I'm priced at 2.15 a pound. I weigh 180! HAHA!!! I'M WORTH A FORTUNE!!!

Isn't this the Scratch Wall, not the Gaming Forum?

Nintendo Power isn't a game. It's a magazine.

Maybe we need a new forum then, for the discussion of gaming discussion? :D

(Would talk about The Way Magazine be off topic in Estrana?)
