Farewell, Nintendo Gamer – final issue in pictures

Even if you’ve bought it before, it’s essential that you pick up the final edition of Nintendo Gamer.

Future Publishing’s independent Nintendo-focused magazine was closed last week, though the Nintendo Gamer website will continue to run.

The magazine’s editor Nick Ellis wrote a farewell note in the final issue stating that the move "draws the curtain on 20 years of independent Nintendo mags from Future Publishing".

Future Publishing’s independent Nintendo magazines began in 1992 with the launch of Super-Play. It continued to publish Nintendo magazines including N64 Magazine, NGC and NGamer before rebranding to Nintendo Gamer.
