Sorry if this has been asked before, but does anyone know if they plan to offer a PDF or at least a PC-viewable version? On the MagCloud page it looks like digital = iPad-only (I don't have one at this time). I'll probably get the first issue in print anyway, but I'd much prefer to subscribe to a PDF version.
@Shiromikio - The digital version includes a PDF of the magazine, so it's not readable only on an iPad. And you get a free digital copy of the mag when you order a print version, so you can view it both as a PDF and a physical mag.

indeed, when you make your purchase you're given the option to download it right then to your PC if you like iirc :3

I found out that mine has arrived, but I can't check it out right now because I'm on vacation. I already read it online, so it's not like I have an urgent need for it anyway.
Hmm, a new magazine.... I wonder if this is official from Nintendo themselves or another/new source. 1 thing that's always bugged me is that most magazine subscriptions you have to either a print/physical copy or diigtal, can't have both. I've always kinda thought that if you opt for 1, say maybe for print copy, that the other should be a freebie. I'm sure they make enough $ to do it anyway.
Yeah, but the way it was worded it sounds as though you can only get a digital copy of the magazine you order. What I meant was if you decide to actually subscribe and you start with the print version, would they charge you for the digital subscription as well as print? In other words, is there a way to confirm your print version subscription as a means of linking your existing subscription to a digtal 1 if you decided you want the digital subscription?
Well, I decided to buy the digital version, primarily because I want to support these guys for their awesome effort and work. Unfortunately, the shipping for the printed version would be insane and probably not worthy.
Anyway, the magazine is very polished and extremely well made. If you take into account the fact that I'm in Italy so my currency is €, paying roughly €3,50 for such a magazine is a steal.
Buy it now. Please.
@DaveGX - The current model NF is using to distribute Issue #1 (MagCloud) and the way they've set up orders for #1 is that if you buy the print version, you also get a free copy of the digital version too. I'm not sure how subscriptions will work with Issue #2, as they've mentioned they're moving to a different publisher for the next issue (I think they said they went to MagCloud for the first one so they could get it to us as fast as possible given the time constraints), but (hopefully) they'll keep a Print + Digital subscription available for future issues. So, there's no need to juggle getting a print but no digital copy subscription because that option probably won't even exist!
While i've only flipped through and read a bit so far, i am absolutely impressed. If i didn't know otherwise, i would honestly think this was an issue of NP (only vastly improved and ad-free). And i absolutely love that there's quite a bit of retro content in there.
As a side note, the printing-quality is fabulous, with nice heavy pages and thick cover — only minor pieces of constructive critcism on that front would be that the portions that have small white text on black background, while finely readable, have a bit of "background color bleed" going on (which, if it was worse, would make the text very difficult to read). Also, the "what games are you looking forward to" bit has dark blue/purple text on black background, which is never reccomended.
