[Phillyman]

And to Finalize the Trifecta..... another Premier issue has been acquired! This time I got my hands on the very first issue of

Video Games & Computer Entertainment from the USA. Thanks to everyone who donated a few bucks so we can continue to buy rare magazines for preservation.

I think I may have had that issue at one time, remembering the walkthrough for Master Blaster.

This is the first one I will own, are they standard size or oversized magazines?

NICE!

It looks like its oversized.

But you fix that with photoshop.

Or I could take up donations for one of these....

I think it's a standard size magazine. That is how I remember it. And it was a standard size after they dropped "& Computer Entertainment" from the title.

The cover doesn't display the words Blaster Master or Sunsoft but if you played it for any time longer than an hour, the little tank

is recognizeable. I remember getting to what I think was the last screens of the game to find out this was all a dream but I fell

to the bottom of a pit where I was attacked by stalagmite and couldn't find my way to the boss.

And I don't remember the man ever being bigger than the tank. A better comparison would be a watermelon to the size of my index finger, the watermelon being the tank and the size of my finger being the man. He wasn't all that powerful either, but he could get through areas the tank couldn't.
