Via DS Fanboy, this ad appeared in Nintendo Power, of all places.

Has anyone actually gotten their new, non-Nintendo Nintendo Power yet? I haven’t, and it seems kinda late this month.

I haven’t either, and I always get it before the last week of the month.
That ad is nice.

Yeah got it today and just started reading it when I posted this. Looks prety much the same but it seems a bit thicker this month or that could be just me. Wow the add shows full glory on PG 54

I got mine a few days ago. Its good. I wouldn’t have known a difference if I didnt know already.
As for the add above, I would have used the word, “helluva”, if thats even a word.

Got mine a week or so ago. The only thing I did notice was the new paper which seems to be a little harder to read. Otherwise the content is just as good as always.

@instant awesome,
Have a coke and a smile and STFU!

I got mine last week on friday. It’s still the same, but it seems that some of the articles are a lot longer for some reason, even though they haven’t changed writers.
anyways, this ad is for a game that is directed toward adults.

have you checked the writers names? they should have changed writers since it not only changes publishers but from whati understand, offices, as well as editor in chief.
i think thats what chris slates job title is.
and its “Ad”, not “Add”
Ad is short for advertising/advertisement

oh yeah, and thats 3rd party so i dont get how its nintendo afvbertising growing up, and this wouldnt be the first having mature ads anyway.
also, my copy of nintendo power is late. is it thicker because of article length or more ads?

@walter,
“and its “Ad”, not “Add””
Bla bla bla. I make this typo all the time. But people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. Ever hear of an apostrophe?

Finally got mine yesterday. And yeah, some of the writers are different, but most of the Nintendo guys are still around in at least the review section. Don’t know for how long (and I give it 2 or 3 months before Future announces Nintendo Power’s “hot new look”.)
