Future Publishing is ending Nintendo Power
Nintendo Power will be shutting down, according to a new Ars Technica report. Future Publishing apparently told those involved about the move last week. Editors and other staff will be moved to other properties including GamesRadar and MacLife magazine.
An Ars Technica source claims that Nintendo was always “difficult to work with” and hasn’t shown much interest in taking the reigns of the magazine once again. Future began to publish Nintendo Power in 2007 after a contract was settled on.
The site also says that Nintendo was “uninterested in renewing that contract or in taking part in a number of digital initiatives that Future saw as necessary for the long-term health of the brand.”
How many issues will be released? That isn’t known. Similarly, it hasn’t been said how current subscribers will be compensated.
