About This File

This issue was published just as the Super Famicom was first entering the market, so most games being released and covered were still for the Famicom, though there is a 52 page guide to Super Mario World.  But I'm usually more interested in the stuff that goes beyond regular game coverage anyway, and these are my personal highlights of the issue:

 

"Slim Air" - Like something out of Spaceballs, this is commercially sold oxygen, though it also includes a scent that is supposed to suppress appetite.  What scent would do that?  Rotten fish?  Toe fungus?  Cat vomit?  The possibilities are endless.

Also, this "dream product" - the Den Den Boy - a combination phone/Game Boy that would let people play head-to-head Game Boy games over phone lines without a link cable.  People playing games on phones??  What utter sci-fi nonsense!!  HAHAHA, the imaginations of these people...
