Nintendo's Official Magazine For Summer 2024 Gets English Digital Release

Luigi is bringing sexyback.

Would be so awesome to have this as printed magazines.
Really miss those days.

Sad times wish it was printed.
Ninty Fresh closed down.
Retro Gamer showing PS3 games (not retro in my eyes)
Seems like magazines are going down hill.

Good that they are willing to go above and beyond to translate some part of this digital magazine into English so we could read all about it but can't do the same for the Starfy games.

Seeing this reminded me of Nintendo Power. The days before the internet took over. Subscribing close to ten magazines. Coming home from school and seeing a new magazine on the table. Always felt like Christmas morning. ☺️

I love that Luigi art!

also I found a new Luigi render on the page for Brothership, it looks really nice!

Luigi Sunshine, let's go!!

Looks really cool, especially all those mini items to collect 😍 Didn't know anything like that existed, and better for my wallet not to have these over here!

That Boo artwork on the last page looks so cool!

No it won’t be a switch 2 game because the switch successor will be called Super Ultra Dolphin Simulator so it will be a Super Ultra Dolphin Simulator game. Come on you can do better NL.

I gave the entire English version of the magazine a read.

It's got a lot of visual flair while still remaining readable, so my attention span won't wander off nearly as often.

The dry, impersonal and corporate writing found here alongside the absence of community-driven sections gives the feel it's plainly trying to sell products.

Shame they didn't took the opportunity to establish human connections and loyalty within its customers! Even Nintendo Power during its later years nailed these aspects down.

EDIT: I didn't realize that this is a yearly magazine. But my point still stands if they ever consider publishing monthly.

When you read through and see all the exclusive Japanese merch you want but can never have 😩

@Bunkerneath time marches on, my friend. The Wii/PS3 era is almost two decades ago.

Does anyone else think it would be cool to see a gaming website that looks and feels like flipping through an old magazine? You could click on images and links right on the page, whether they would jump you to an article later in the issue, pop up a little info window on what you're looking at, or even bring you to an external site if you click on an ad.

I understand modern day web design has a purpose, but sometimes I'm sick of the same design that caters more to the ad companies than the way in which the user consumes the content.

@JCWrites Nope

@Bunkerneath

🎵 Every time an adult says their first console was a 360,
I die a little,
Every time they say PS3 is retro,
I wonder why a little 🎵

So much cool Pikmin stuff! Why do they not release any of this stuff in the West importing is so expensive!

Samus. Samus will be next year's cover.

@Bunkerneath I must admit to only realising earlier this year that the Gamecube is retro, having rediscovered my old purple box of joy. I've since been picking up the odd issue of Retro Gamer.

FINALFEST IS UPON US?! I personally think Off the hook!

maaaaaaan, those japan-exclusive blind boxes are so cool! How hard would it be to ship some overseas, nintendo?! Please? Pretty please with a cherry on top?
