NF Magazine - Made by the Nintendo Force! - Issue #25: Farewell Wii U, Hello Switch! – January/February 2017

En este asunto

Our milestone 25th issue is here!

As 2016 comes to an end and 2017 is ushered in, Nintendo is in a time of transition. The Wii U is done – its time in the spotlight is over. And the all-new Nintendo Switch is mere months away!

Here in this in-between time, we’ve taken the opportunity to look back and reflect on the entirety of the Wii U era. But it’s not a simple walk down memory lane, because strong rumors suggest that many of Wii U’s biggest hits will be making encore appearances on Switch! Whether they’re presented as ports, sequels, “director’s cuts” or whatever else, brands like Mario Kart, Splatoon, Super Smash Bros. and more look poised to build on the foundations of their Wii U editions and add even more content for Switch.

Of course, the one game that we know for sure is going to appear on both systems is the game we selected to appear on the cover this time. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gets an all-new preview, plus supporting coverage in our Retro section!

And our featured Interview this time is with André Segers of GameXplain, who nearly lost his mind earlier this year as he worked for months to prepare his epic, crazily in-depth *two-hour* analysis video pouring over all of the footage of Breath of the Wild recorded at E3 2016.

All that and more are in store for you in our 25th issue!

NF Magazine - Made by the Nintendo Force! Description:

Nintendo Power got unplugged. It was the original source of news, previews and reviews of the Nintendo video game scene, published continuously since the '80s until being unceremoniously shut down in December 2012 – but its legacy didn't die. A new team of writers, artists and designers took up its torch. Calling ourselves "The Nintendo Force," we've ushered in a new era of Nintendo coverage in magazine form, paying homage to Power's past while moving forward to embrace the future. So join us! Join the Force of Nintendo fans. NP is no more, but NF is its next chapter!
