It was nice seeing Nester make his 'return' briefly in the 20th Anniversary issue(which IS my last one), but I doubly-agree Hippo that it's just not the same. I do like their writing style, and they DID break the news on Megaman 9......also, I was into Printing Technologies in High School so I kinda do like to have solid, physical magazines/books than internet. But a thousand times over, the internet will have it first, and 'free', and the games they showcase will usually eventually come out and then you can see them and play them for yourself. I miss the days of full-scale maps, strategies, Top Tens, and when it was the only source for it, previews of upcoming games.
Now it's just like... 'we realize you get the information early already, so let's make fun of it with not-so-witty-puns'. I'd rather their redeeming quality had been 'keeping NSider the way it was', since giving up Nintendo Power was apparently the main reason for closing it. Then they'd at least have something to actually put in the Community section at the end.
...and even tho some were saying they got the Posters even though they didn't renew, I didn't.

Oh well, not like I NEED posters, but it's irritating that this issue didn't even have one(and it seems like some before it didn't have one either).
