ISSN

I just removed the ISSN 09647-702X Parameter error in {{issn}}: Invalid ISSN. from the article since it is invalid (too many digits). At portal.issn.org, I do see that there is a journal called Amica Force published by Europress Impact with an ISSN that is very, very close to this error: ISSN 0967-702X. Are Amica Force and Sega Force the same thing? Shall we rename the latter to the former? --Keesiewonder talk 12:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Amiga Force and Sega Force were both published by Europress Impact but are two completely different publications. Obviously one catered for the Amiga computer, while the other Sega consoles. -- Nreive 14:56, 8 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ok - I am then removing the ISSN-tag needed from this page since there is apparently no ISSN per portal.issn.org. It is not all as obvious as you might think when we're talking about magazines that are apparently never cited in scholarly sources and never issued an ISSN. --Keesiewonder talk 17:30, 8 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

I've written a huge chunk of text on the magazine. I don't have the final issue to hand. Please can someone provide an exact quote from Nick Robert's final editorial? -- knight_beat 22:36, 29 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
Nick Robert's editorial from Sega Force Mega, issue 7, page 5.

"Hello to one and all and welcome to the definitive guide to Sega in 1993. I've compiled the top reviews from Sega Force Mega and Sega Master Force into a handy magazine full of reviews on the top software for all Segas.
There have been some cracking games over the last few months - games that will go on to become classics. What about Mortal Kombat eh? It looks excellent on all formats and it shipped 500,000 units in the very first day!
As well as reviews I also stumbled upon snippets of news on your favourite console giant. Check out what the hedgehogs at Sega HQ have been up to recently on page 6.
I Hope you like this compilation - Sega Force Mega will be back to normal next issue but if you want more Sega gaming in the mean time, check out Mega Machines on sale now!
