Nintendo Power (July/August 1990)

Source: http://megalextoria.blogspot.com/2014/01/nintendo-power-julyaugust-1990.html

In the Summer of 1990, although the Sega Genesis and TurboGrafx-16 had come out, The Super Nintendo was still a little over a year away (at least in the U.S.) so Nintendo Power was still covering Nintendo's two original systems, the NES and the Game Boy. At this early point in their lives, the Genesis and TG-16 may have had flashier graphics and sound but the NES still ruled on the quantity of quality games, several of which can be seen in this issue of Nintendo Power.

The July/August issue of Nintendo Power includes:

Features

• Final Fantasy - Part Two of a giant review! The quest to restore light to the four Orbs continues.
• Rescue Rangers - Chip 'N Dale! Two-player simultaneous action! Get into the mischief!
• Snake's Revenge - Just when you thought it was safe to blow up enemy headquarters again...Metal Gear returns!
• Golgo 13: The Mafat Conspiracy - Another thrilling international espionage mission lies ahead for Secret Agent Golgo 13.
• Solstice - Piece together an ancient Staff in a 3-D perspective maze.
• Crystalis - The survivors of a nuclear holocaust need your help in a world gone mad. Magic, telepathy and powerful swords play a role in this adventure.
