This issue's theme is "The Bond Between Brothers" as we explore gaming's iconic fraternal relationships, leading to Mario & Luigi: Brothership!
Exactly 20 years ago today, Nintendo presented their legendary E3 2004 press conference. Reggie made his debut, the DS was revealed and Mr. Miyamoto leapt onto stage with a sword and shield to unveil The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It was an epic event!

This is a horrible quote that I’m convinced has been mistranslated for years. Delaying a game doesn’t guarantee that it will be good as a finished product - it could very well still be a bad game that just took longer to ship. Nintendo fans, stop sharing this quote all the time.

We are shocked and deeply saddened at the loss of Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna. Kobe was one of very few celebrity athletes to partner with Nintendo, headlining two first-party NBA basketball games on N64 and also appearing on the cover of Nintendo Power. Farewell, Kobe.

The Pokémon community has struck gold, unearthing the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold! Dive into the thread here and prepared to be amazed: Noctowl here is just a taste of the major changes that happened between the beta and the final release!
Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn will play on all Nintendo 3DS & 2DS systems. There are some reports going around saying it's a New Nintendo 3DS exclusive. It's not. If it were, it would have the New Nintendo 3DS style of boxart like Xenoblade Chronicles 3D, and it doesn't.
This piece was originally commissioned six years ago for NF Issue

Apparently Nintendo's had the next Direct ready for days, but it got demonetized when they uploaded it to YouTube. They haven't been able to announce it until it gets cleared through the review process.
If you’re anywhere near Kyoto, you could find the ultimate piece of Nintendo memorabilia lying on the ground somewhere around town today. Better move fast!
Lots of people weirded out by Toadette transforming into “Peachette.” Time to further confuse the young’uns by bringing this early piece of Princess Peach art back into the spotlight:

Happy Fourth of July, American NF fans! And remember: Yoshi may have committed tax fraud, but Mario’s been violating U.S. Flag Code for nearly three decades! Have a safe holiday!
So, Skyward Sword HD confirmed!
Seriously people, Nintendo always does this. You haven’t picked up on it yet? Some random rep isn’t going to be the one to come forth with the official announcement. They’ll deny deny deny right up until the trailer drops in a Nintendo Direct.
Get ready for five minutes of the Smash Ultimate Direct to just be Sakurai slowly explaining his design philosophy regarding the new Ladder Attacks mechanic.
After over a decade of making magazines, we're expanding into book publishing! NF's first book "The Impact of Iwata" will go live on Kickstarter on May 30 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern. Spread the word!
