We've not had a retro magazine update from gJones since Novembers issue of NGC, I did ask him about it and seems it won't be continuing and I did talk to Zero about something and seems he & Jay has plans to being back the lets all play when the paid only launches for Switch and we get our free NES games.

As I don't really know where to look for the magazines, this is the best I can come up with and is just a trail thing and if you like and gets similar engagement as the magazine version from gJones.

I've not had the time to be honest, and much of the early Wii stuff didn't exactly pique my interest. With the rest of the forum playing on their Switches, I didn't think it would be missed much.

Either way, 2003 is one of my favourite years for games. Of the games in March, I've always wanted to try Rayman 3, especially as Rayman 2 is highly regarded. Wind Waker never connected with me but I'd love to give it another chance.

I certainly have and I know Cappa was a fan. Yeah, Wii never got me that excited but GameCube on the other hand and why I went for March 2003 and not March 2008 first.

Bloody loved Ruby and Sapphire. They were my last Pokémon games for a long time - at least until X and Y - but I spent a hell of a lot of time with them. They could very easily be my favourite if I wasn't so heavily influenced by nostalgia when it comes to Pokémon.

I think my thoughts on Wind Waker are well documented by this point, but what a cracking month to be a Nintendo fan that would have been!

That it's the best Zelda and nothing will top that.

...those aren't my thoughts on Wind Waker, those are yours. Laughing

Just wait until the March 2017 edition of this in 15 years time. Wink

It’s just the Big Nintendo Two of this month for me. I played through The Wind Waker on my Wii fairly early during its life and loved it fairly thoroughly - my favourite 3D Zelda until Skyward Sword (come at me, SS haters - I think you’ll Fi-nd that I’ll take you down - down to Skyloft town). Very much later than even that, I got a copy of Ruby (played Emerald back in the day). Gen Three did not impress me much, I’m afraid to say - much preferred Four, possibly because I managed to finish the Pokédex on Pearl. Thumbs Up!
