    Hi all, been having a clear out and have a few boxes of magazines from the mid to late ninties onwards and i would rather they had a home than be recycled...

    i have the following titles:

    official nintendo magazine - 44,54,62,63,64,65,75,78,79,80,81,84,85,100 - number restarts 11,12,13,23,24
    total - 45
    total gameboy color - 1,2,3,4,6
    plantet gameboy - 1
    super gamer - 10,11
    gamesworld - 6,7,9
    gamesmaster 23,24,25,26,79,81,82,87,89 + tips vol 1,2
    video gamer - 1,2,3,4
    cvg - 156,164,208,209,210,211,212,213,214,215,216,217,218,219,250
    games tm - 9,50,56,57,64
    edge - 43,142,158,160,164,167 + file vol2

    The odd issue is probably worth something to someone, and i can't be bothered to ebay them, so if there's any collectors / archiver's out there drop me a me if your interested in any.

    Free to collect, or will post at cost.

    collection from DE55 7DF.

    Nice stuff! Thanks for the offer. And thanks K1ngArth3r for refraining me from being tempted - I really don't have the room right now... nor access to my magazine collection to check for duplicates! ;)

    Glad to see them go to a good home, anyway!

    I had every issue of CVG for five years, most of which ended in the trash. If only I knew what I knew now.

    That's really sad - many years ago (probably about 2000) I was offered every issue of CVG for about £250, and I was seriously considering it.

    I'm a "collector" sadly. I still have all mine and my brothers old ones. Struggle to give them away

    I wrote in to total when i was like 8-12, I want to find out which issue it was - so I can buy it.

    However, if you had a picture of the front cover of all of them - I might be able to fire up some near dead neurons and remember it. Failing that, it would be checking the cheat section of the later issues.

    I can only find up to issue 14 at the moment. You can see some covers here:

    Perhaps clicking on the cover might give you more information ;)

    If anyone has a copy of Mean Machines issue #16 that'd be great.

    You should have looked 4 weeks ago - it was on that site, but the owner has let the domain lapse. Anyway, I have it.
