Sometimes it takes a carefully trained eye such as myself to spot the rare gems in a pile of magazines. I saw this auction for a pile of GamePro magazines.....

Now, 95% of those magazines I do not care about, my concern was with the 3 magazines in the top left corner......I know the with the spikey hair is Issue #5 (which I just got last week)......but those other two where I can't really see the cover.....they have me curious.

Contact the seller asking about those issues, no reply <_<

Wait a few days....

Contact the seller AGAIN asking about those issues, no reply AGAIN <_<

Luckily I have some GamePro magazines at my desk at work, So I start flipping through some early issues from 1993, looking for a page that has the back issues.....Nothing in 1993, except for issues from 1992.

Next issue is a Swat Pro from the Fall of 1990 (I believe its in the Download Section also)

Start flipping through......BINGO! I find a back order page that has the early issues on it. So I look closely at the picture in the magazine and see the following

Issue 3 = 10 Packed Pages

Issue 4 = Super Mario Land

Look back at the Auction page......see that is the two issues

Hit Buy it Now! :Yahooo:

We are now only missing issue 2 for GamePro! :D

Its nice to know that I have the Tri-Fecta of Gaming magazines from the early 90's

Nintendo Power

EGM

GamePro

I will be keeping my eyes peeled for Issue #2 now, As I get done scanning these early GamePro's, they will be available over at ChaseTheChuckWagon.com. The monies recouped from selling them will help me purchase more Retro-Goodness :)
