If this video seems derivative of any other RU-vidrs... it is! I wanted to make a series that took elements from Gamester81 (NEStalgiaholic), HappyConsoleGamer, and AVGN's episodes about NIntendo Power and Video Game Magazines... and create an issue-by-issue hybrid of passion, wit, and nostalgia for Nintendo's awesome magazine: Nintendo Power. I hope I was able to do it.
These three guys have done quite a bit toward my appreciation of RU-vid and their videos about Nintendo Power and other game magazines have been amazing. If you haven't watched them already... you must! Here are some links to their videos:
HappyConsoleGamer "Video Game Magazines" • VIDEO GAME MAGAZINES -...
AVGN "Nintendo Power - Angry Video Game Nerd - Cinemassacre.com" • Nintendo Power - Angry...
Gamester81 NEStalgiaholic "'88 Nintendo Power Magazine Issue #1 Review" • '88 Nintendo Power Mag...
I hope you all enjoy (and understand) what I'm trying to do. Thanks.

Awesome, loved the "a Christmas story" part with so much detail to make it exactly like the movie

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! I was terribly afraid it would come across as too derivative of his work. I've tried to give AVGN as much credit as I can. His work is the "father" of the concept... I just wanted more. No one else had made anything quite like it so I thought I'd try my hand at it!

@NESADDICT 7 лет назад

Dear Santa, I want more Nintendo Power Time Machine for Christmas. That is all.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

For sure! Getting Nintendo Power in the mail was the highlight of each month. I wish I still looked forward to it that same way. Thanks for watching, bro.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

WOW! I don't know about that. I'm such a huge fan of all those guys, so you've just given me the biggest compliment ever. I would be satisfied if I had an ounce of their talent. Thank you so much! I'll be on All Gen Gamers episode 103 if you want to check it out.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you so much! Those are very kind compliments. I'll keep trying to make videos you'll enjoy!... but man is it time consuming!

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

I don't think anyone else has commented on that, but I think that's one of my favorite parts. I know I shouldn't laugh at my own jokes, but when I look to the side 6:33 I can't help but smile

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Yep. You caught me! I made an editing mistake. I filmed myself writing it out from two angles, but didn't pay much attention to how much I had written when I edited. Good eye!

@Matt_Desrochers74 5 лет назад

I’m only missing the first issue of Fun Club News and have the first 32 issues of Nintendo Power which is when I left for college and fell out of gaming for a few years. Glad I found your channel Great stuff so far!

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

When's the last time you flipped through an old issue? They are so great and in my opinion bring back the nostalgia like nothing else can. Bummer your parents threw them out. My mom did, too. I've bought them all back and then some. I have most of them now.

@sennaho 12 лет назад

Thank you so much for this amazing episode! This is by far your best video until now, and I am really looking forward to watch more Nintendo Power episodes! I have ordered myself some magazines too, because of your first video (and a friend that love gaming as much as I do)!

@mikerasmussen7924 7 месяцев назад

Love the Christmas Story reference. Your videos are all really solid dude

@troubl8385 12 лет назад

Awesome job showing off the old nintendo power! I remember getting that issue in the mail and loving the magazine. A lot of great memories in that magazine.

@vgmastercleveland 12 лет назад

"DOUBLE DRAGON, GAUNTLET, AND CONTRA! WHAT AN ISSUE!...andwheeloffortuneandjeopardy...WHAT AN ISSUE!" Lol. Good job man, lookin forward to new episodes, very professional

@powertimepodcast100 7 лет назад

Love this!! Nice work. I've been digging through the Nintendo Power archives for my podcast, Power Time. You might dig it. Keep putting out awesome videos!

@toddotto5965 11 лет назад

I just stumbled upon your channel, great stuff. I've been looking for a good Nintendo channel on here. Keep up the great work, and bringing back the great memrories of simpler and far more fun time of gaming.

@MartYtraM1983 11 лет назад

I turned five the same month NP came out, but it wasn't till I was 11 that got a Super NES and I've been hooked on Nintendo ever since. (raises fist in air in memory of Nintendo Power)

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Thank you so much for the compliment and for watching. I appreciate it.

@darthdirt4690 3 года назад

Got this in the mail back in the day and still have it today!! This magazine was a must as a kid!!

@Altitudes11 10 лет назад

Hey NESComplex just discovered your videos and I'm impressed.. you're entertaining, funny and talented, keep up the great work man! Thanks for the vids.

@EnglishTurtle 12 лет назад

My goodness, I'm astonished that a high stature of gaming like Cliff Blezinski was actually in Nintendo Power lol Anyways, I'm impressed by how well thought out this review was! I used to watch Gamester81's reviews for these, but I think yours is a bit better in terms of presentation style. Anyways, its sad to see that print isn't the same as it used to be in the old days. Nintendo Power had to actually switch to a different manufacturer because of low sales in recent years.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thanks RetroRObbie. I put a lot of thought and time into this one. I wanted it to be just right!

@Woodscape718 12 лет назад

Gamster81 turned my on to your channel, and I have to say I'm really glad he did. You clearly have a natural ability keep it very interesting while also being informative and witty at the same time. Many others strive to do the same but are simply unable to do this. As soon as I viewed your fist video I was hooked. Keep up the good work bro. Although we need more videos, so keep them coming!

@TheJonnyKage 12 лет назад

Great video man, very entertaining and some nice editing work as well, look forward to seeing more of these.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

I know what you mean. I actually reshot and rerecorded much of the episode as I'm trying to get a feel for how to balance passion, humor, and nostalgia. I imagine I'll get better at it. Thanks for the feedback.

@raptorbandito 11 лет назад

Just found your channel. Fantastic show here! So this episode reminds me that my elementary school had this issue, and only this issue. I must have checked it out and read every page a dozen times.

@sgiacomo84 12 лет назад

Great video! I loved the reference to A Christmas Story haha, one of my favorite movies by far. Nice job again!

@LithiumManium1 11 лет назад

This is seriously one of the best channels on RU-vid

@ZachariahSutoVideoGames 12 лет назад

Excellent video man. I can't wait to watch episode 2

@gutsman004 11 лет назад

Great videos man! Right on par with the videos from gamester81 and the like.

@PabstOban 8 месяцев назад

I feel bad for anyone that watches this video… and the “Christmas Story” gag flew over their head. They will never appreciate it as much as those of us who did catch the reference.

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Thanks Coach. It was a lot of fun to make. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

I'm glad it took you down memory lane. I'm still working on Episode 3...

@TheZoidberg312 11 лет назад

Your channel is amazing, NESComplex. I grew up in the NES/SNES era and love looking back at how great these consoles and their respective games really were. I think something is lost with Call of Duty and the like. Games back then didn't need catchy soundtracks, witty voiceovers, or 10,000 frames per second. They needed good game play and, most importantly, story. And Nintendo Power? Huge part of my growing up. Sad to see it go, but your tribute is really nicely done.

@RE-LOOIE 12 лет назад

2:35 I can definitely see the teacher in you during that little segment XD Haha, funny stuff, man. Hey now, don't be hatin' on Pat Sajak and Alex Trebek's Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!!! Some of my favorite NES games...not really, haha. Another excellent episode, and my goodness, that ending was classic! LOL, I was hoping you would make the call, because if you didn't, I had my phone in hand ready to call at the end XD

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! I am, too. I'm still in shock over it! I had no idea it was coming!

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Ninja Baseball Batman... I forgot about that! Good call!

@johnkest712 12 лет назад

getting better and better!!! great video.....

@mlucasmusic 12 лет назад

This is your best video! Powerline in Brazil was called the HOTLINE... Sounds weird thinking about it now. hahaha

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! I have more in the works.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thanks for watching. :)

@UKaToNeN 11 лет назад

LoL.....The Power Line call at the end killed me! Good job with the story on the mag`s birth, was really interesting...

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

That awkwardness is a big reason I wanted to do the series. It sort of went along with the awkwardness of being a kid or teenager during those years.

@arcadeimpossible 12 лет назад

Gamester81 sent me. I'm glad he did, great work man!

@thevolkster 11 лет назад

Thanks for the video its great :) I had a ton of fun watching it keep up the great work

@RetroR0bbie 12 лет назад

another great video, excellent work

@jarnorautalahti9892 5 лет назад

I got my NES on xmas 1987. This is so nostalgic! Gamer ever since.

@Inboden69 12 лет назад

nice Christmas story spin lol nice video!

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

I didn't play Star tropics until last year. It's a fun game, but I agree with your comment about it being frustrating. I still haven't finished it.

@smoothrasin 9 лет назад

OMG MEMORIES! I had every single issue you see here! HOLY CRAP THAT LINE STILL WORKS!!! LOL

@ClassicNintendoShow 12 лет назад

This kind of stuff makes me wish I was born about 15 years earlier... I wish I would've been there to experience this stuff when it was new.

@GHFear 12 лет назад

This video is GREAT! :D Can't wait for the next one!

@DapperByrdGaming 11 лет назад

Great video brings back good for me memories.

@lexluthermiester Год назад

Excellent! Great review!

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

I am, too! Thank you for subbing and watching. I'm trying hard to keep the vids coming.

@RetroCollector 5 лет назад

Lol I love a Christmas Story I’m going to watch it on VHS today also please make more videos.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

That is the highest compliment. Thanks a lot. I mean it.

@ClassicNintendoShow 12 лет назад

Come to think of it, your'e right. To quote NCS, "Now is never as awesome as the past." meaning that now isn't as awesome now as it will be when it's the past. XD

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! I hope you'll continue to enjoy it. It's been a blast making videos.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Dude, don't sell your era short. Plenty of kids today missed that. They'll wish they had been born when you were. These poor kids today barely know about cartridges. Soon disks will be a relic. Your era is just as awesome and full of nostalgia!

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Yes. The Official Nintendo Player's Guide. That is an amazing book to flip through. I just filmed a few shots from it for an upcoming video.

@andrewthompson1405 6 лет назад

I need more of this. How am i supposed to be lazy at work otherwise?

@NESComplex 6 лет назад

More are coming soon

@StevoSupremo 12 лет назад

Haha. A crummy commercial lol. My fav. Christmas movie! What a great episode! Now I can't put my arms down!

@retro_elv50 7 лет назад

Nicely done 👾

@etermal07g 11 лет назад

This is freakin sweet xD I was never able to buy the nintendo power issues but now thanks to u. I can still enjoy them :D

@Kainmac84 11 лет назад

I really like the fact that you give it your all. I consider your travel through time the same as mine. We are almost the same age and I consider that I really would be awesome on youtube as a video maker but I really don't have the means to issue. I love your videos because it makes me remember my old days. I am 28 years old and I grew up in the eighties and I love baseball games. RBI was bad ass. I wish I was this old again.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thanks, bro. I'm glad you liked it.

@coachNewman17 11 лет назад

OMG...amazing episode...brilliant to use The Christmas Story...LOL. Freaking amazing. Keep up the episodes

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thanks. This video also took the most time! I need to streamline the process. Magazine are so awesome. More gamers should check them out.

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

I wish I could just instantly have the next 50 episodes created.

@kimmykimko 11 лет назад

This is great, hope you get lots of views.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you Danny. I really appreciate it, bro.

@aaron71 8 месяцев назад

loved the Christmas Story reference !! 😄

@tommeeker6223 11 лет назад

I think it's cool the first official issue you got was Star Tropics. That game is one of my favorites, but it is pretty frustrating at times. I think I'm going to really enjoy this series.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

I actually didn't call, but it was fun doing the voices. lol.

@DlNKYDANA 12 лет назад

Damn you! Now you're making me want to go back and buy up all my old magazines! Unfortunately, they were all thrown out by my parents. :( Great episode.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! Hopefully future episodes will take you down that same lane again. :)

@SuperNintendoZach 11 лет назад

that was really funny, love the nod to Christmas story

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

I love that movie as well. It is THE Christmas movie and we watch it every year, for sure.

@mlucasmusic 12 лет назад

Yes! I called them sometimes as a kid because I couldn't beat Link's Awakening on the gameboy. They were very polite and usually really had the answers and knowledge. You know, they were the PROS.

@Coilshot 11 лет назад

The Christmas Story reference was amazing!

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Thanks... I still haven't watched it yet this Christmas season. I gotta get on that.

@metalmayhem007 12 лет назад

Great vid !

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Yes... I don't think the rift between Nintendo and Atari was fully formed yet. But it was close. Leave it to The Atari7800Junkie to catch the Tengen Tension. :)

@TheTobywankenobi 12 лет назад

Oh memory lane. Getting frustrated with Contra only to find Nintendo Power had a solution. Thank you and please keep posting more videos.

@dustinkreis 12 лет назад

Haha great video man, looking back I love how awkward the "gaming culture" was in the late 80's/early 90's. Now you are playing with power!

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Thanks kimmykimko. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Ah how we used to beg our parents for things. lol. My kids do the same to me. Now that I'm a parent I know why my parents said "no" sometimes.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thanks. Wacky ads? sounds interesting. I'll have to look into it.

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Yay! Nostalgia FTW

@NESComplex 12 лет назад

Thank you! I would be curious to see what Nintendo Magazine looked like. hmm...

@hayden5846 12 лет назад

Hahaha. I must say... I really enjoyed that video. I'm very glad I subscribed! Keep it up!

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

Thank you!

@mistyfreak 10 лет назад

Awesome video A+++ it was hilarious especially the Christmas Story part lol! Btw I was wondering if you know about the Nintendo Power Issue #1 ever coming in plastic wrap? I got one around 10 years ago and it came sealed in plastic...not sure if it matters or not but I refuse to open it!

@joey4track 10 лет назад

omg so good. love the xmas story bit. damn i wish i still had all my old nintendo powers

@WhoaNellyJake 10 лет назад

Ahahaha that Christmas Story reference was great.

@NESComplex 11 лет назад

It looks like a ton of fun, but I do worry about how far behind the cutting edge of gaming technology that Nintendo appears to be. That said, I have bought every Nintendo system and I don;t plan on missing this one.

@Zero921000 10 лет назад

I always enjoyed the North American version of Super Mario Bros 2. But I played the All-Stars version because I grew up in the 90's playing the SNES, and I later played the NES version of Super Mario 2 a few years ago. I never owned a NES, but the games on there such as Super Mario Bros, The Legend Of Zelda, Metroid, Super Mario 3, Gradius, Contra, Super Contra, Castlevania series, Kid Icarus, Duck Hunt, and Mega Man games looked great at the time. They also great music in the games.
