Nintendo Releases New Winter 2024 Online Magazine Featuring Bowser and Upcoming Switch Games

Nintendo has ushered in the winter season with the official release of its latest Winter 2024 online magazine, delivering fans an in-depth look at recent and upcoming Nintendo Switch titles.

This seasonal publication, available on Nintendo's official Japanese website, provides a comprehensive overview of the company's most notable games of the last six months and offers a glimpse at highly anticipated titles set for 2025. The Winter 2024 issue features an eye-catching cover showcasing Bowser, adding an extra layer of excitement for Nintendo enthusiasts.

Traditionally, the cover highlights beloved Nintendo characters—past seasonal editions featured Pikachu in 2021, an Inkling in 2022, and the Pikmin cast in 2023—making this year’s Bowser spotlight a fan-favorite moment. Nintendo has made the full 84-page magazine available in Japanese.

Recognizing its global audience, the company has also published a 54-page abridged English edition, ensuring that fans worldwide can enjoy highlights and updates without language barriers.

Both versions can be accessed digitally through Nintendo's website, while fans in Japan have the added option of purchasing a physical copy at select stores. Inside, readers will find detailed features on major Nintendo Switch releases.

The magazine includes a comprehensive multi-page spread on the widely-anticipated RPG Mario & Luigi: Brothership, which continues the celebrated franchise with new gameplay innovations.

There is also an exclusive overview of select minigames from Super Mario Party Jamboree, Nintendo’s latest entry in the party game series known for its engaging multiplayer experiences. Fans of The Legend of Zelda will appreciate a special section dedicated to Princess Zelda’s Echoes of Wisdom skills.

This feature offers insight into the new abilities and gameplay mechanics that have shaped her latest adventures, further cementing her status as a central figure in the Zelda series. Additionally, the magazine rounds up forthcoming games expected on Nintendo Switch in 2025, keeping the community informed about the platform’s evolving lineup.

For collectors and enthusiasts, Nintendo offers downloadable exclusive wallpapers of the magazine’s front cover and a rear calendar—available to those signed in with a Nintendo account. Since launching the seasonal magazine series, Nintendo has continued to celebrate its diverse portfolio and engage fans through thoughtful, content-rich publications.

The Winter 2024 edition reaffirms this commitment, serving as both a showcase of recent Nintendo milestones and a roadmap for future releases on the Nintendo Switch and eShop.
