Pure Nintendo Magazine (PNM) continues its commitment to in-depth coverage of the Nintendo ecosystem with the release of Issue 71, providing a comprehensive look at the standout Nintendo Switch games of 2025 and the excitement surrounding upcoming releases in 2026.
Based in Nashville, TN, PNM remains a leading source for Nintendo aficionados, delivering detailed features, reviews, and dedicated community content even as the industry shifts away from traditional print media.
Issue 71 of PNM highlights the editorial team's favorite games of 2025, with a particular focus on titles that have retained their relevance through robust downloadable content (DLC).
The feature asks readers, "Which of our top 10 are you still playing?", inviting fans to reflect on the enduring appeal of the year’s best releases.
According to the editorial team, games such as the latest entries from iconic franchises—featuring familiar faces like Mario, Yoshi, and Pokémon—continue to entertain and evolve with new content offerings.
Looking forward, the "Let’s Talk" section in this issue delves into the most anticipated Nintendo Switch releases slated for 2026, underscoring how Nintendo Direct presentations continually generate buzz for both new titles and updates to fan-favorite series.
This issue pulls back the curtain on what makes upcoming launches so exciting, while providing a space for community voices and perspectives.
In addition to its comprehensive reviews—including both games and gaming gear—PNM maintains its tradition of showcasing reader-submitted fan art.
Under the stewardship of art curator Kaelyn, selected Nintendo-themed artwork is featured each issue, giving creative fans the chance to shine among thousands of like-minded readers.
Fans are encouraged to send their submissions to kaelyn@purenintendo.com.
PNM further fosters community engagement through its recurring "Question Block" section, where staff respond to reader letters, questions, and feedback.
This interactive approach not only builds a bridge between the editorial team and its subscribers, but also allows readers to directly influence the magazine’s content and direction.
