Title: Nintendo Power Subscriber Editions
Post by: andrew on September 01, 2011, 01:18:50 pm
I was adding some images for a couple Nintendo Power entries when I noticed that there were some cover variations for one of the issues. After investigating, I found that Nintendo Power is printed with two covers each month, one for newsstands and the other for their subscribers. Can someone confirm this before I start adding new entries to the database? I mean this website ( http://www.comiccollectorlive.com/Index/CoverTitle.aspx?id=95348946-d6af-4724-998c-194c769d4d8e&pg=6 ) has complete listings, but I wasn't sure whether or not they were for different regions.

If this is correct, then style wise how should I add the new entries. Yeah, I calling for @scott....

p.s. I still haven't figured out how to hyperlink.

The forum seems to only allow for html coding. So, you have to either post the whole url or use the a href=" " tags.

As for the Nintendo power mags... I guess, you could write them out like:  Nintendo Power - Volume 252 Subscriber Edition (March 2010) ?

Okay, I will add them that way, but is this confirmation that their subscribers do indeed received a different cover? Hopefully, someone who is currently subscribed to them can confirm this. I know it seems apparent, but if a current sub. doesn't receive the magazine this way, then I'll have to look into it a little bit more before I add them.

Yes, I'm subscribed and the cover is different for us than the news stand version.

I haven't been a subscriber in years. Do they still do the thing on the spines where you put the whole year together and it makes an image?
