As per this tweet, only two issues released.

Interesting.  I'd like to get a look at those.  I guess Sendai was trying to create a recognizable cover design across all of their titles at the time?  Hopefully someone other than the VGHF finds a copy so we can get them scanned, since flying to America to view their research library isn't a practical option for me.

Issue 1 is on ebay right now:

And I sure hope VGHF gets extra issues in a donation or something, as that would mean they would be sent to a retromags scanner

Or, you know, people could just donate their mags directly to a scanning site so that everyone gets a copy.

As for the auction - including shipping, that's a $55 magazine for me.  I don't want to look at it THAT badly.

Yeah, outrageous prices, but i wanted to let you know there is an option
And I am just glad there is more cooperation between communities. I have been volunteering with Frank at Game Informer and I know he has the best intentions only. He is working almost single handedly at an enormous scale. I am sure there is enough stuff coming up from the civicminded donation and VGHF will fill a lot of gaps in the database in the future.

You should ask Frank if he has a list of all the magazine titles he's come across so far. We'd never know to look for certain rarer things if we don't know they exist. I'm sure he has other stuff that we don't know exists.

He is now in the process of organizing his stuff. I am sure to add anything missing in a topic like this, but I guess we will soon enough see something more organized than twitter threads.
