After yesterday's report that the 24-year history of Nintendo Power was coming to an end, Nintendo has confirmed that the December 2012 issue will be the magazine's last. "Nintendo can confirm that Future US will end the production of Nintendo Power magazine with the last issue slated for December 2012," the company told CVG (which is also owned by Future Publishing, incidentally).
According to yesterday's report, Nintendo was "difficult to work with" and did little to help Future transition the magazine into the online era. Nintendo Power staff members will reportedly migrate to other Future publications.

Amp_ I think it's funny how some of you don't even read the article.
On topic: It's sad that the magazine is stopping.
It had a good run with 24 years.
Ikr, half the people just comment, and vadermarley is just senselessly spamming.
If Nintendo was as popular as it was 5-10 years ago (that time period), it would be worth it to keep Nintendo Power going. We're still gonna see everything in Gameinformer and internet news sites, even in the TTG news section, but it's still sad because every Nintendo game I got as a kid came with one of those stupid little pieces of paper about Nintedo Power. Good times :)
