    I can guarantee there's one person seeding: me! I'm the one who uploaded the file and there's already about 10 people downloading it. I'm not claiming credit for the scans. I downloaded this ages ago and have no ideawhere it originally came from.

    Hmmm

    Click the link... Pink box in roughly the middle...


    ' The tracker of this torrent requires registration.'


    Clicking the info brings up...


    What is a private tracker?
    A private tracker is a tracker which requires registration at the tracker website (click on the tracker link in the red warning message on the general information page of the torrent) before you can use the torrent. This means that registering at Mininova won't help! Such trackers usually have a high amount of seeds, because users get banned if their ratio is too low. See for more information the Wikipedia entry regarding private trackers.


    So guess the torrent wont connect unless we register somewhere 1st?

    Don't know if you would be interested, but there's a website that has lots of scanned old brazilian game magazines in pdf's.

    PS: Don't forget to check the sub-menu on the top-left for more editions.

    Ação Games - This one always had a weird design and style.
    http://www.datacassete.com.br/revistas/acaogames/1.html

    SuperGame - Fully dedicated to Sega
    http://www.datacassete.com.br/revistas/supergame.htm

    GamePower - Fully dedicated to Nintendo
    http://www.datacassete.com.br/revistas/gamepower/1.html

    SuperGamePower - I guess they decided making two separated magazines wasn't a smart move. So they mixed SuperGame and GamePower in just one magazine, plus added more content to other stuff. This one was my favourite magazine back then.
    http://www.datacassete.com.br/revistas/supergamepower/1.html

    Gamers - Kind of an indie magazine, had great japanese translations, walkthroughs and reviews, but a very basic design layout
    http://www.datacassete.com.br/revistas/gamers/1.html

    VideoGame - One of the first (if not the very first) magazine fully dedicated to gaming. I stopped buying them circa 1994.

    Of all those classic 90's magazines, i think only SuperGamePower still exists (on a different company, editor,...). Today we have EGW (former EGM),Nintendo Power, NGamer (nintendo), PS3World, Start PlayStation, PlayStation - Dicas e Truques, Official Xbox Magazine, X360, EDGE, OLD!Gamer (retro stuff) and lots of generic ones like GameMaster and so on.

    Yeah no kidding, there was a good four year period where it was all about fighting games (Mortal Kombat in particular.)

    Well back in the 90's we had the Top Kids magazine (which came from Argentina) which had like 1/3 of each issue dedicated to Mortal Kombat with comics, fan art/fic, posters, etc, and each issue came with a Mortal Kombat action figure! They were really obsessed :eek:h:

    I still have the full collection of that magazine but gave away long time ago all the MK action figures :-( , they were pretty cool, specially Goro and Kintaro :110:
