According to their website, the issue doesn't even hit newsstands until the 23rd. Maybe some subscribers get it a few days or even a week early, but never expect it until the official release date. I don't have the DKRC review issue either yet, and neither did Walmart when I checked just a few days ago. Also, a subscription is a lot cheaper than buying each issue individually. I would check http://www.nintendopower.com for more details on savings.

Thanks for reminding me guys, I need to e-mail NP because they forgot to send me an NES controller Wiimote skin.

EDIT: You save 72% per year, apparently.

EDIT: Lol, as of now, Oct 1, 2012 will be my final issue unless I renew. Awesome!

I guess Edge isn't big into platformers. Sonic Colors got nailed too, and Super Meat Boy, which has been widely praised, only got an 8.

I am way too lazy to think of something clever.

Edge kept falling off edges in platformers, so yeah.

Reviews are reviews, sheesh, lol. You guys are having a cow over what a magazine thinks about some random game. xD

DK getting one point under DJ Hero 2 seems to be a constant pattern...

GoNintendo gave the game a 9.5 and the review is very enthusiastic. I can't wait for this Sunday to get here so I can finally get my hands on it...

Yep, a completely and utterly random game that we picked out the blue. To be honest I kind of forget what it is after all this arguing.

Many people (including me) can be swayed by a review. If it gets a lower score, chances are less people will buy it, and we wouldn't want that happening to a Ninty game, now would we? P:

Yes you can be swayed by ONE review when there's 7 other reviews with a higher score. That ONE review is gonna sway you.

I didn't literally mean that that ONE review would change everybody's opinions. I was speaking in terms of that if a game gets a lower score from more than ONE reviewer, that it will probably get less sales than a game with a higher score.

Look at this ONE link if you want to know the basis of what I meant:

Sorry I get finicky when anyone says anything negative about anything. I have to be the one who stands up. I contribute it to OCD.

That is very cool. It might have been intentional, either way it's cool.

The best strategy in the game: go up stairs and pause balls.
