I saw this on NinTemple.com. The new magazine is called Pure Nintendo Magazine. It will be bi-monthly so for the mathematically challenged that's six issues per year. Twenty bucks gets you a subscription and there are perks for those who want to donate more. Here's the link. I for one will be backing this. The internet is best for fast info of course, but there's just something about a real magazine that sets it apart.

Also, if you haven't checked out NinTemple's forums I hope you'll consider it. It's much quieter but has a nice core group of people including people like Negative World Podcast co-host NinSage (Joe). There's a link on Neg World's front page.

UPDATE: Pure Nintendo Magazine has added additional support levels with additional rewards.

For those that have never supported a Kickstarter project this was my first time and it was very easy. It just took a couple of minutes. Also the fact that I checked out via Amazon made me feel very comfortable that my money was safe.

UPDATE from the PNM Kickstarter page: Pure Nintendo Magazine said:
Some of the chatter on forum posts have questioned what PNM can offer that is different from other online gaming sites. We want to reassure you that we do have official support from Nintendo to run PNM. We have full rights to use the name, and we are working closely with Nintendo's legal and PR teams to guarantee that PNM will feature plenty of exclusive content not available anywhere else.

Many fans have also mentioned that one of the things they disliked about NP was that they didn't focus enough on third party content. Because PNM is "by fans, for fans", third party titles and game studios will be featured just as prominently. We already have contacts inside several studios developing titles for Wii U and 3DS, and are working hard to gain more.

Thanks for all you do, and please continue to spread the word!

This magazine would make a nice gift. For someone else to give. To me.

Alright! I got my issue yesterday (or at least opened it yesterday), and I read some of it last night. Did you notice...I don't know....some grammar deals here and there? I haven't read the ENTIRE magazine, so it may've been localized, but some sentences are coming off..wrong?

Either way, its nice to have a magazine in my hands, and it is very colorful, yes. 48 pages!


--BTW, where are issues 1-6??

We need scans.

I didn't say that.
