    Does anyone remember this short-lived "magazine"? Lots of ads for import games, some content. Really a catalog for that mail-order biz. I remember having one issue in early-mid 1991 It might have had Fist of the North Star on the cover..

    I strongly second this vote for VG&CE issues -The one with Genesis on the cover (7) - August, 1989. -Also the issue with a tiny Atari Lynx on the cover (9) October 1989 -Plus (issue 20) September, 1990 with VG&CE's first Neo Geo coverage. Seeing those three again would be beyond awesome.

    Whoa. Thanks very much Sean, awesome!

    The colors and brightness look very good, as does everything about this scan in general. I've looked at it on a 17' laptop screen and also plugged the laptop into a 40' 1080p HDTV via HDMI and looked at the Strider pics in the letters section. Excellent (just wish that game had made it out, haha). Looked at some of the Fact-Files, awesome. What else can I say, it's all good to my eyes. Is there an even higher DPI version? I'd like to look at those Strider SuperGrafx pics in the highest detail / res possible

    Thanks Sean!

    The TurboGrafx-16 vs Genesis issue has CES cover? Neat.
  7. parallaxscroll
    Yes, absolutely. VG&CE covers the Neo Geo really nicely in this issue.

    I could be mistaken, but I think LC2 = Life Cycle 2, because this incarnation of Electronic Games magazine started in 1992. The earlier incarnation of EG started in 1981. EG (1981) https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/electronic-games-1981/#.VwbN3fkrKM8 EG (1992) https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/electronic-games-1992/#.VwbOFPkrKM8

    This the same line of magazines as Intelligent Gamer and Intelligent Gamer's Fusion, correct? https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/intelligent-gamer/#.VwQA6fkrKM8 https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/intelligent-gamers-fusion/#.VwQA_PkrKM8

    Awesome! Thanks so much Jason, KiwiArcader, Sean. Also, sooo looking forward to EGM Number 18 - January, 1991 !!

    Awesome. In the letters section of that issue they have pics of Strider for what they claim is the NEC SuperGrafx version (not the normal TurboGrafx-16 / PC-Engine, but the more powerful SuperGrafx released only in Japan. However the pics were likely from the arcade game. What happened to the canceled SuperGrafx version and the rumors about it is stuff of myth & legend. This is the page I'm referring to.

    oh, darn.

    Amazing work, Sean!

    First gaming magazine I purchased was this one: Was all interested in military aircraft at the time and this issue of VG&CE caught my attention with all the fight sims.

    Thanks for the update on that one ^ looking forward to it.

    Fantastic work Mark BTW guys, any ETA on EGM #9 April 1990? I see its status is in editing.
  22. parallaxscroll
    Thanks Sean, I see that now, what has been acquired and what's being scanned. Best of luck finding those three issues. Also guys, I'm still looking out for Mega Play issue 2 - January/February 1991. The last page of that magazine has some screenshots of upcoming MD games, some of which are the arcade versions. I managed to find a low res picture of it: Would be delighted to have a high resolution scan of that.
  23. parallaxscroll
    Wow, nice! EGM issue 11, and especially issue 8, are rare. I'd also be looking forward to EGM #9 and #10 if you have them to scan.

    First time I saw and read GamePro magazine was at the newstand in a JEWEL-OSCO near Chicago in late 1989. This one: I read GamePro through '92 and then was done with it. I always read the Sendai Publications magazines (EGM and all the related stuff like Mega Play). After Ziff Davis bought EGM in the mid 90s I still read sometimes but not as often, having switched over to Next Generation & EDGE.

    The one that got posted on the front page. EGM #7 January 1990.
