    Heh, even before I scrolled up to see what one that was, I had a feeling it would be Ocarina of Time.

    It's kinda weird to thinking I'm getting close to having missed out on 100 issues at this point. Although, considering how the quality went downhill, I'm probably not missing much at all. My last issue is 131, which was when I lost interest and let my subscription run out. I don't think I ever even read that one. It's one of my worst condition issues. I seem to recall having it kicking around my bedroom floor for weeks. :P I guess that shows how little I cared at that point. I'm glad my subscription lasted that long, though, because just two issues prior I had some of my art printed. It's a little embarrassing because the art wasn't so hot, but it's still neat nonetheless. Granted, my art looked like a masterpiece in comparison because they had started to print some horrendous envelope art those days. That's when you really know the magazine was catering to the elementary school age Pokemon fans when all the art looked like it was done by 5-year-olds. But I digress.

    I still have the first eight issues to picked up at some point, and when I finally have read everything I own and those eight, I'll probably start looking into getting those later issues. I suppose I should at least finish off the N64 era. I'd kinda like to see the coverage of stuff like Kirby 64, Paper Mario, and Majora's Mask.

    I bought a couple of issues after my subscription ran out, so I lost track of what the last issue I bought was. It was definitely before Pokemon and the advertisements, though. It was also when it started to become so much easier to find in my area. For some reason, for the longest time no one seemed to carry it, so for a while it seemed like kind of a big deal that I could go out and just buy whatever issue I wanted.
