What game was featured on the cover of the first Nintendo Power?
If you were a kid in the ‘80s and ‘90s and didn’t have Nintendo Power, you were basically a laughingstock. This precious tomb held all the secrets, tips, and inside looks at all the greatest Nintendo games. Rather than wasting your parent’s money calling the Nintendo hotline, it was far more economical to get a subscription to the magazine. At least, that’s how I sold it as a kid.
Today, the stupid internet has killed off even the great Nintendo Power, leaving only its memory to cling to for comfort. Never again will I experience the excitement of opening my mailbox and having a fresh magazine to show me all the amazing video games my parents wouldn’t buy me.
The first issue of Nintendo Power has become an iconic piece of video game history, but how many of us out there remember what game was given the honor of gracing the cover?
