SCROLL 01: Endurance

Cover Story

This year, the Super NES turns 20 in America. It's certainly one of the best systems ever, but might it also be the most enduring one thus far? Lots of great games were released, of varying complexity, and many that are still great to play today. The proof is in the pudding when you look at titles like Chrono Trigger on DS. Issue 01's cover story explores the history of the Super NES and its struggle to endure, followed by galleries of the best SNES games, both sung and unsung.

Instead of phoning in from an alternate source I figured I'd just use this nice convenient comment system!

Can't wait to get the first issue. In a world of fading print it's nice to see a new beacon shine in the horizon. Really looking forward to going through my ritual (rub it, sniff it, kiss it) with this sweet baby!

Anyways, hope to see this little rag become a repeat visitor to my mail box/door step. Good job and good luck!

Hey! You stole my stolen idea for a TLD to use. I'm looking forward to this "defense" of Hydlide while trying to contain my uncontrollable laughter.

Bought! Found you thank to a mention on GameSetWatch, and really need to read your take on the Super Nintendo. I love that system so much.
Congrats on the mag, Ray!

Heard about the mag via Tiny Cartridge and bought it, expensive shipping to Malaysia included (sob). I liked listening to your thoughts and opinions in Retronauts and it made this an easy purchase.

I really wanted to order a copy, but then I saw the shipping cost for Japan was over $13! So please put out lots of new issues so I can order a bunch at the same time (please keep them available too). I do the same thing with the Gamespite books.

Waaaants it...

But can't afford to buy it yet. Money's so tight. :(
