About the author
Nintendo Power
91 books20 followersNintendo Power was a video game news and strategy magazine published by Nintendo of America, first released in July/August 1988 as the company’s official North American print magazine. Initially published in-house before transitioning to independent publication, it was later managed by Future US in December 2007. Running for 24 years, it became one of the longest-running video game magazines in the United States and Canada.
Nintendo announced the magazine’s closure in August 2012, with the final issue, volume 285, published on December 11, 2012. However, Nintendo Power returned as a podcast on December 20, 2017, hosted by former Editor-in-Chief Chris Slate. The podcast remained active until 2023 and is currently on hiatus.
The magazine evolved from the Nintendo Fun Club News, a free newsletter for club members, and was founded by Nintendo of America’s Gail Tilden. Its early focus was on game strategies, previews, and reviews, later incorporating advertisements and broader coverage of the gaming community. Over the years, Nintendo Power included exclusive comics, promotional giveaways, and strategy guides.
The publication was known for its unique mascots, starting with Nester, who appeared in comic strips and video game references. Later, Mario became the face of the magazine. In the 1990s, a major promotion offered a free Dragon Warrior game to new subscribers, significantly increasing readership.
Beyond print, Nintendo Power also produced strategy guides and operated the Nintendo Power Line, a gaming hotline active from 1988 to 2010. Various spin-off publications, such as Nintendo Power Advance and Pokémon Power, were also released.
The magazine’s legacy continues through digital archives, its influence on gaming journalism, and the fond memories of long-time Nintendo fans.
