'''Nintendo Power''' is an official print and online publication created by [[Nintendo]]. It started in August, 1988 as a subscription based magazine by an in-house journalism department at Nintendo of America. It specifically provided new and upcoming information and content relating to the company, their games, reviews, and game strategies. Future US, the American branch of British publisher Future, took over production in December, 2007 with Nintendo still producing and overseeing. The Magazine was officially discontinued on December 2012 after 285 issues. The brand was revived on December 20, 2017 with the Nintendo Power Podcast, with new installments being made to this day. The podcast is run by many of the same staff that worked on the original magazine, and servers a similar function, albeit in a less formal fashion.

Several issues featured content from ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Banjo-Tooie'', and both were given a respective strategy guide to coincide with their releases.
