TMNT featured in Nintendo Power's 250th issue

[Powder]

As the title says, our boys in green are a small feature in the celebratory 250th issue of Nintendo Power. In this issue Nintendo gives readers the '250 reasons to love Nintendo'. Among that list, 3 TIMES, were the Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles. Once for favorite ninjas, a second time for having questionable food, & a third for favorite baddies to beat up. Here are photos of each feature.

I have this issue and I loved seeing my fave heroes featured. In my opinion, TMNT is probably more liked by the Nintendo fanbase (just look at the NES, Game Boy and Super NES games).

I haven't read NP in years. I dunno WHAT the hell's going on now.

I stopped subscribing when they stopped including free Pokémon cards.

I remember when they used to post people's decks.

One guy had all Mewtwos.

You mean the one with four Mewtwos and all the rest as Psychic Energies?

From what I remember, it was all Mewtwos. It was a few years ago, so it's kinda blocky.

But, I'm pretty sure you know what you're saying, because like I said, it's been a long time since I read NP.

Well, the TCG didn't allow more than four of one like named Pokémon in a deck. Like you could have up to four with the name "Mewtwo". However, you could also have up to four "Rocket's Mewtwo" in the same deck, because the name was different. But Energy are required to do the moves. A popular deck archetype back in the day was to load a deck with four of the original Mewtwo card, and the rest of the deck with Psychic Energy cards, because Mewtwo had an attack allowed him to prevent his opponent's attack by discarding Energy cards from himself.

I used to play the game back in its infancy, and I still am a casual collector of the game

Anyway, we're off-topic. Turtles appeared in the newest Nintendo Power three times, and Ebisumaru still does not have facial hair.
