Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This collection includes nearly every known issue of Game Players in its various forms.

From the Series:

Game Players was originally published as the Game Player's Guide, which alternated between covering Nintendo games and MS-DOS PC games. After four issues, it was relaunched as three separate magazines, covering Nintendo, PC, and general gaming, respectively. Several spinoff magazines followed, covering other platforms.

All three editions of Game Player's magazines restarted at Volume 1, Number 1. This has led to confusion about the correct publishing order for these early issues and the running issue count for Game Players as a whole.

Based on our knowledge, this record is our best attempt at the correct publishing order for each iteration of Game Players. The issue titles and numbers have been reproduced as they were originally printed.

From the Series:

This collection also includes two issues of the Game Player's Consumer Electronics Expo show guide, distributed at the event. Six issues are believed to exist, one for each CES held from 1989–1991 when Game Player's was published. The library has digital scans of all six issues.

Historical Note

Issue numbering for Game Players continues from the Game Player's Nintendo magazine by Signal Publishing and GP Publications.

The running issue count (starting with Issue 48) also seems to include for the first three issues of Game Player's Guide, though not Volume 1, Number 4, which might be considered part of the PC magazine instead.
