While sorting and renaming all the scans of NextGen's M2 coverage, I noticed that we are missing some. In particular: June 1995 - "M2: 3DO bites back" Dec. 1995 - "NG Hardware: M2" (partly scanned, page 80+81) Feb. 1997 - "World exclusive: M2 specs revealed" Aug. 1997 - "M2 is 'alive' says Matsushita" Oct. 1997 - "M2 just not good enough" Can anyone owning any of these issues please make scans? Would be cool to have NextGen's *whole* M2 coverage archived. :nod: After doing proper renaming, this is what I have in my archive so far: Next Generation 1995-10, Clayfighter III (1).jpg Next Generation 1995-10, Clayfighter III (2).jpg Next Generation 1995-10, Ironblood (1).jpg Next Generation 1995-10, Ironblood (2).jpg Next Generation 1996-01, Matsushita buys 3DO M2 technology (1).jpg Next Generation 1996-01, Matsushita buys 3DO M2 technology (2).jpg Next Generation 1996-01, Matsushita buys 3DO M2 technology (3).jpg Next Generation 1996-04, Developers worry about M2's future.jpg Next Generation 1996-06, Divorce absolute for Sega and M2.jpg Next Generation 1996-10, Matsushita breaks its silence (1).jpg Next Generation 1996-10, Matsushita breaks its silence (2).jpg Next Generation 1996-10, Matsushita breaks its silence (3).jpg Next Generation 1996-10, Matsushita breaks its silence (4).jpg Next Generation 1997-01, D no Shokutaku 2 (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-01, D no Shokutaku 2 (2).jpg Next Generation 1997-01, D no Shokutaku 2 (3).jpg Next Generation 1997-04, Matsushita's 64-bit console gets games (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-04, Matsushita's 64-bit console gets games (2).jpg Next Generation 1997-05, Power Crystal (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-05, Power Crystal (2).jpg Next Generation 1997-05, Power Crystal (3).jpg Next Generation 1997-05, Power Crystal (4).jpg Next Generation 1997-06, Matsushita M2 - Hit or Myth (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-06, Matsushita M2 - Hit or Myth (2).jpg Next Generation 1997-07, World Championship Racing (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-07, World Championship Racing (2).jpg Next Generation 1997-09, Matsushita - Finally pulling the plug (1).jpg Next Generation 1997-09, Matsushita - Finally pulling the plug (2).jpg Download: http://www.retro-net.de/NextGen_M2.rar Note: None of these were scanned by me!

I have the issues in question and I'll start scanning the articles of interest shortly. I also have the Edge "1996 Essential Harware Guide" (pictured below) that has M2 information. If you don't already have scans of this let me know and I'll process that issue at the same time.
My heart.... I used to own a few of those magazines with M2 stuff in it... such a quality magazine I always felt... I miss it!
Next Gen was basically just the US version of The Edge. In fact, they regularly swapped content. While the quality of The Edge may have gone down slightly in the past few years, it's still the best written and produced magazine for video games in my opinion.
