Another very special day with a new section added to the catalogue today.
As I've been studying Japanese for two years now, I decided that I needed a lot more reading practice.
And one of the best way to learn a new language is to combine it with something you are passionate about, so I ordered a couple of Japanese Sega Saturn magazines.
These are
quite expensive, so I'll only get a couple at a time, and I don't know how far I'll get with these.
They are also 200 pages thick, so roughly double the work of a regular issue, so things might go a bit slower.
With all this said, please enjoy Sega Saturn Magazine - セガサターンマガジン 1998-01-02 Vol.01 (Japan), which has just been added to the magazine catalogue.

Another new section added to the catalogue today.
Sadly, I only have this one issue at the moment, but perhaps I'll be able to get my hands on more.

Enjoy! |

I have something rather special today.
This past week I found my old Japanese Sega magazines. It's only a handful of issues, but I do have the complete set of one of them. And I did order a couple more Sega Saturn Magazines. But these are very expensive, so I probably will never get to do the full set.
Still, today I present to you the first issue of the official Japanese Sega Magazine:
Sega Magazine - セガマガジン 1996-11 (Japan), which has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
Enjoy!

This is the only issue of this magazine I have so far.
Hopefully one day I can get a hold of a complete set.
But as for now,
N-Revolution 1 - September 2006 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
Enjoy! |

I only have one issue of this magazine, so sadly, more will not be coming anytime soon. But still, it's always nice to open a new section on the site.
Your Sinclair 72 - December 1991 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
Enjoy!

The brand new rescan of Super Play 8 - June 1993 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
As always, these rescans are done with the latest scanner and settings to get the magazine to look as close to the physical version as possible.
There are only a couple more of these left and then these older releases will all be up to date and look just as good as all the other magazines on the site.
Enjoy! |

Total! 8 - August 1992 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
This issue is missing the pages 63 to 66 as these were torn out by the previous owner.
If I ever get an intact issue, I will repleace this issue with one that has ever page accounted for.
Enjoy! |

The brand new rescan of N64 Magazine 6 - September 1997 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
As always, this one is a preliminary version, which means that it hasn't gone through the full restoration process yet, unlike the old version which is also up on the magazine catalogue.
That old version was done long ago on old hardware with inferior tech, so while the pages look a lot cleaner, they don't have the detail and accuracy of this new edition.
Enjoy!

A while ago, I discovered that an error had crept into my workflow when resizing the finished TIF files to create the final uniform jpg files to use in the cbz releases.
So a whole bunch of magazines don't quite look right, from circles that look elongated, to screenshots and artwork which appears stretched out.
It has taken a lot of work to go through all of them and find the ones that needed correcting.
Everything on the site right now should be fixed.
Here is a list of all the issues that don't look right on the previous settings:
- N64 Pro 15 - Christmas 1998 (UK)
- NGamer 41-70
- Nintendo Official Magazine 116-127
- Nintendo Official Magazine 133-162
- Official Nintendo Magazine 16-66
- Official Nintendo Magazine 108-114
I know this is asking a lot, but if you want the best possible versions of these magazine, please re-download these issues and throw out the old ones.
I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience.
