A look at Nintendo Power’s farewell letter

By Da Ill One - 12-28-2012, 12:29 PM - Boxden > BX GameSpot

Sadly, Nintendo Power is gone. The December 2012 issue – yep, the last one – was sent out to subscribers and is on newsstands now.

Nintendo Power was kind enough to include a farewell letter with the final magazine, which you can read below. Try not to tear up!

I'd hold onto them if I were him, a full pristine collection will only keep increasing in value. Could be fairly valuable down the road.

Yeah definitely keep them for now. I remember being a faithful subscriber myself. [pic] I still have every issue from 1998-2002 plus several other old issues as well.

I used to be a subscriber during the SNES and early N64 days. I miss being a kid [pic]
