I was never a big fan of official publications for particular game systems because they always came across more as advertising than real editorial coverage. However, for sheer volume of coverage or if you were into strategy guides then Nintendo Power was hard to beat for Nintendo related systems which in 1995 primarily included the Super NES and Game Boy. The October 1995 issue includes:
- Mega Man 7 - Capcom's tiny but tenacious hero returns to the Super NES in yet another action-packed, platform game that includes a full complement of mechanized marvels. This time he's up against a maniacal new band of baddies, all products of Dr. Wily's sinister and sadistic imagination. Don't miss the classic Mega Man action, beginning on page 46.
