How many Retro magazines have you gotten?  I haven't gotten one since issue 3

Same here.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I wonder what the hold up is?

I don't know, but we better get our full 6 issues. If not, it really wasn't that great of magazine anyways, so I won't feel that big of a loss. I think when my subscription expires I'll replace it with EGM.

I heard that nintendo force is a great magazine for current nintendo news. It's pretty much picked off where nintendo power stopped about two years ago, its bi- monthly and has alot of content per issue( 60-80 pages i think) and there are both physical and digital versions of the magazine to pick up, along with some good pricing options for single issues/ 6 months/ and yearly subscriptions. They also have gotten a lot of support from Kickstarter to continue the magazine, and I'd reccomend you pick it up while you can!

You are not alone.

I have modest stacks of:

Game Informer
Nintendo Power
Sega Vision
Electronic Gaming Monthly
Game Pro

Each month I "release" a new issue of something for my 11 year old son to paw through. Like a subscription.

He loves it and I get a kick out of going through them again. Especially now that I can easily get my hands on what they'd tease back then as being exclusive to other regions.

Also, I work with Jon the Greedy Gamer a previous Game Informer reviewer.
