Select articles from Nintendo Dream vol. 90! I always treasure this issue, so many RUNE 2 goodies and lovely things, and such fond memories scanning it. I will probably never clean up magazine scans that painstakingly ever again though. LOL

Much thanks to Mother Forever for featuring the MOTHER1+2 scans here!!

Originally on the Internet Archive and Twitter/Tumblr, I wrote up many descriptions for these scans. They are presented as below for posteriority.

❤️🤖 NINTENDO DREAM VOLUME 90!!! 👼🎮

Scanned and edited by yours truly! i finally finished it... 43 pages of nintendo dream, early june 2003 edition, volume 90. things of mention in this magazine are of course, the huge feature on lost kingdoms 2, but also an interview on mother 1 + 2, and lots of lovely fanart submitted by readers.

the selection of sections scanned were mostly on personal preference, case in point the entire feature on LK2 and the tiny section on PN03 haha. feel free to request if you’d like more pages scanned! the link below has a whole list of sections and games featured in this article. check it out!!

And of course, check it out on the drive!

Select articles scanned from Nintendo DREAM, volume 90. Articles and sections are listed here in order of appearance, and scanned articles are bolded and underlined.

Also I now do game glossaries so here's that

I also had a special submission for a GiFTPiA article request but it was a very small page so I'll just put it here instead of making a new page. tee hee!

Nintendo DREAM Vol. 90 (GiFTPiA Article only, p.62-63, p. 130)

cropped screenshot of a giftpia scanned page. the giftpia logo is seen, along with a lot of japanese text detailing the game's specs and headlines in different color and sizes.

This is a cleaned up scan of an article found in Nintendo DREAM Vol. 90 featuring GiFTPiA, requested by Twitter user scooterdooper! Thanks for the wait!

I tried making a nice thumbnail for the article for the first page, so that the preceding pages would make a nice spread like the magazine. I also included a bonus page that mentioned a guidebook in production for the game.

However, as I don't have access to a bookedge scanner right now, I had to use my home printer, and it's not as great as i'd like it to be... I apologize that it's not up to par. Bookedge scanner, I miss you.
