Many years ago I collected the official Australian Nintendo Magazine, Nintendo Magazine System, but I didn't start collecting until 1998/99 during the n64 era. On my browse through the internet I found a fully scanned version of Issue 48, March 97. The issue with their Terranigma Review!

Seeing as this never came out in the US this is the only review I have ever seen that was actually written when Terranigma was a recent release! Well worth the read (so is the rest of the magazine! They spend half of it fan boying over new n64).

Magazine Link

Its quite hilarious and obvious how little the reviewer actually played before writing the review

I still have my magazines, so I think I will see if I can hunt this issue down now that I know which issue had the Terranigma review. Now to find which issue had the Lufia review... Laughing

edit - it is so wroth reading the mail page sections at the end of the magazine. The 90s was an interesting time in Australia.

"Cadet
This ghostly character can freeze you just by looking at you, so show him the sharp end of your spear and poke his damned eyes out!"

This magazine is so quintessentially Australian!

To be fair, the editor wasn't given that much space to work with for the section on Terranigma.
