The wiki is there for anyone to add whatever may be of interest. I dont mind if you create one

I am in the progress of making a list of all the released issues that Retromags has currently made public. If anyone can help me out with making the list complete I would greatly appriciate it! As you can see my scanning has resumed and at the current rate the missing Nintendo Powers will be scanned in a few days. Meanwhile anyone wanting to help with the list can do so by editing the Wiki page at the following location http://www.retromags.com/wiki/index.php?ti...Released_Issues After the Released List is complete, I will do a Scanned List. Again thanks in advance for the help (feel free to add CRC Hashes if you know how to compute them)

Yes there was a huge torrent that was released a year or so back, and it did have issues past 1998. This was before I started including .nfo files with each release. Alot of people complained that it was a pain to download 1 huge torrent, So i then created yearly torrents 1988 1989 1990 . . . etc When I got up to around 1998, Issues werent complete, they were either missing posters and/or covers or just missing issues from the year. I didnt think it was worth it to release past 1998 until I fixed those problems. We aquired all the missing posters and now if you look at my WIP thread you will notice that I am scanning the missing issues also. Technically we should be up to the October 2002 issue as the latest release. I am working on getting all the issues together and doing a quality check. As I start getting issues fixed up , I will start bundling them in groups of 50 001-050 051-100 101-150 151 152 . . . . etc Once they have all been run though the quality check, I will then move all my attention to Sega Visions and Gamepro as my next projects. If anyone has the ability to clean up scans, or join posters.....your help is appreciated

Ok my problem with this is that they only cared about 24 of the songs she was sharing, thats like $25 worth of songs and they blew it up to a $222,000 fine????

I just bought these....

I have been looking for a copy of that for a while now, Are they your scans or are they ones you found online?

Final Fantasy 7......That brings back memories. I put 97 hours into beating that game. Some days I still fire up the PS1 and unleash an can of kick ass on Sephiroth

This is absolute bullshit! http://www.olgn.net/archives/hide-your-the...-riaa-is-coming

even after upgrading the forum software it still shows up , But just for shits an giggles....I sent myself a message (I have -7 and zero messages actually) and mine went from -7 to -6.......then when I deleted that message it went to 0 So send yourself a message and then delete it and see if it auto corrects itself

I updated the forum software as of today, This means that some parts may not work right now. Whenever I update the forum I usually have to reinstall the modifications that have been made to this board. Please let me know of anything that doesnt work. This is what I have noticed so far... Portal Page (aka front page) = Doesnt work Battle System = Doesnt work Personal Messages = Still showing negative posts Who has visited today = Doesnt work Arcade Stats = Doesnt show up on forum Arcade = New Scores dont submit correctly

I sent out multiple warnings to every member that has registered at Retromags that a mass pruning was coming. Some of you decided to sign in .....others didnt! 700+ Members were pruned from the forums as of a few minutes ago. The criteria was as follows Less then 1 Post (means 0 posts) AND! Has not signed on within the past year (October 10th, 2006) Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, I figure at least 500 of those members were probably spam bots anyways. Next Pruning will take place mid January 2008!

I have -7 if it makes you feel better, Let me clean up some tables and see if it gets fixed

Or you could just buy This! :laughing:

I have learned a very very important lesson this week, If you are going to debind magazines for scanning, and plan to use a Auto Document feeder. Well then before debinding write down the numbers of any pages that DO NOT have a page number. You would be surprised at how many EGM pages have no page numbers, My scanner got the pages out of order (by pulling in more then 1 page) and I sat there for ever trying to piece back together that magazine :unhappy: I am going to start making notes like this Page 54 = Spiderman Ad Page 103 = Super Mario Advance Ad Page 154 = Cheap Videogame Outlet Ad Yea you would think that you could just flip over the page and look at that number to figure out the page, But there are alot of dual pages that have no numbers Dont fall victim! Scanning will resume tonite....

I havent touched my copy of Twilight Princess in months :unhappy: I am at the point where I just got the suit and now can swim underwater to that cave, I got fustrated because I couldnt figure out how to blow up the rock that was blocking the entrance. I had tried everything and just sort of never got back into playing it since then. Maybe after I get done with PH, I will go back and finish up TP

Ah good I forgot that one......Yea I am only excluding the DOS games and Game and Watch. I started playing Phantom Hourglass last night.....Its very good and I hope its my first Zelda game to beat

I want to start collecting the major nintendo franchises.......I want to basically own all the Mario, Zelda and Metroid games in existence. I just need to make sure I have a complete list. I am not going to be collecting ports or clones........and in order for it to be considered the main character has to be playable or in the name of the game So lets take Mario games.... Super Mario Land 3 = Would be on my list (has mario in the title) (even though you dont play as mario) Punch Out = Would not be on my list (mario only makes an appearance) Super Smash Bros. = Would be on my list because you can play as mario Donkey Kong = Would be on my list because you play as mario Donkey Kong JR = Would not be on my list because Mario only makes an appearance So I need some help remembering the thousands of Mario games out there So from the 3 major Nintendo Franchises I will list what I have vs missing so far. Mario Super Mario Bros -NES Super Mario Bros 2 -NES Super Mario Bros 3- NES Super Mario World -SNES Super Mario 64- N64 Super Mario Sunshine- GC Super Mario Land 2- GB Smash Bros -N64 Super Smash Bros- GC Super Mario Kart- SNES Super Mario Kart- DS Super Mario Kart 64 -N64 Super Mario Kart- GC Super Mario Strikers- Wii Super Paper Mario -Wii Mario Bros Super Mario Land New Super Mario Bros Donkey Kong Golf Dr Mario Mario Paint Marios Time Machine Mario Tennis Mario Clash Mario Picross Mario Picross 2 Super Mario World 2 Super Mario RPG Mario Party Mario Golf Mario Tennis Mario Party 3 Paper Mario Mario Party 4 Mario Party 5 Mario Golf Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga Mario vs Donkey Kong Paper Mario Thousand Year Door Mario Pinball Land Mario Power Tennis Mario Party 6 Mario Party Advance Mario Super Stars Baseball Mario Party 7 Mario and Luigi Partners In Time Mario Strikers SSX on Tour Mario Hoops 3 on 3 Mario vs Donkey Kong 2 Mario Party 8 Zelda Legend Of Zelda- NES The Adventure Of Link -NES Ocarina Of Time - N64 Majora's Mask - N64 The Wind waker - GC Twilight Princess - Wii Phantom Hourglass -DS Soul Calibur II -GC Zelda DX -GB Oracle of Seasons -GBC Oracle of Ages - GBC Link to The Past -SNES The Four Swords - GC The Minish Cap- GBA The Faces of Evil -CDi The Wand of Gamelon-CDi Zelda's Adventure -CDi Metroid Metroid -NES Metroid II: Return Of Samus- GB Metroid Prime-GC Super Metroid-SNES Zero Mission -GBA Prime Pinball-DS Prime Hunters-DS Prime 2 Echoes-GC Prime 3 Corruption-Wii Fusion-GBA After I get these Finished I am going to move onto Castlevania and Final Fantasy

You can use your serial number of your Wii to get up to 4 free jackets for your Wiimotes! http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/jacket/jacketrequest.jsp

Yea the funny thing is....Nintendo is soo inconsistent with page numbering. In some issues the poster counts as 6 pages of the magazine (3 on each side)....but then other Nintendo Power magazines seem to not count the poster as anything at all......So if I want to get the jpg numbers to actually match up to the actual page numbers ....its a pain

I think he may have had some doubles, But It was 100 for $100. The same guy had 100 PSM issues for $100. I will let you know if I see any other good deals on Ebay EDIT Looks like 85 issues http://www.magweasel.com/wiki/Next_Generation

I only need the front and back covers rescanned, Also helping me understand if that damn players poll card is really being counted as a page number in that mag.

WON! Nintendo Power Issues 130-160 :laughing: Good now I believe that should fill in the holes in my collection completely

If you have issue 1 of Nintendo Power, Take a look at my post in the Help and Suggestions thread on what I need from that issue. It would be a big help.

Wow, I would love to get a list of what your willing to donate to us, maybe we can take up a donation for the shipping charges. I have 2 of the Nintendo Power Advance Magazines, but am sadly missing the others, They were released around the 2001-2002 mark so they are fine for our project. I have almost all the PSM magazines except for issues 1-4....I think I have everything else up to issue 60-70. Maybe you could make a list of what magazines you are willing to donate, then I can tell you which ones I already have. After we get that sorted out you can take them to the post office and get a price to ship them to zip code 22309. Then we will know what we need as far as funds to get them to my scanner I just bought a nice Canon Scanner for $240......of course it dropped down to $199 within 1 month of buying it......But this guy right here is probably what each of our scanning team needs... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16828102257 Pretty much the one I have is more expensive because it does dual sided scanning. But this is probably a good scanner for most people.......You could always just go buy one from Bestbuy/Circuit City.....and then scan like a demon for 13 days and return it before the 14 day return policy is up :devil:
