My sister used to be subscribed to Nick magazine when she was a kid. The best part of these magazines were the crossovers with Cartoon Network and Disney Channel shows.
It was also funny because Disney had its own kid magazine (Adventures) at the time. Like Nick, they had to acknowledge not only just Nick and Cartoon Network regularly, but regular film rivals like Dreamworks, WB, and Blue Sky and future acquisitions (such as Star Wars and almost every Marvel film of the time).
@Weegee Slayer For the longest time, that's how I remembered it
@marianne mccrank Right? And one of the best of them was like the October '06 issue where they had to shill for X3 on DVD (like in depth). Given how like a decade later they nearly had Marvel kill the X-Men off all over Fox's license, it's super surreal.
When I was 12, I actually had my artwork featured in Nick Magazine. It was for a Bad Superheros contest for the Jonas Bros issue. Mine was "The unstoppable stop sign man". They sent me a shirt i still have and a free issue. Good video man, brought back memories!
That actually sounds like funny superhero parody like Powdered Toast Man.
The best part was how he got his powers. He was bitten by a radioactive stop sign...I was 12 and thought I was witty
@@tylervigeant1807 it's funny
Did I just See Sakura siping A drink with Bart simpson?
Yup, it was THAT kind of magazine, apparently
Hoopa57 & They said Infinity War was the most ambitious crossover!😂😂😂
Ok who let a fanfiction wrighter get past security?
It's sooo supercursed image
Sakura had a love child with Bart.
Why does Nick still sound friendly even when he's complaining
That's like PatMac in a sense. (Crossover notwithstanding)
5:37 Fun fact: at least one kid caught that and angrily wrote to Nick Mag thinking it was an insult. They answered the letter in a later issue saying no insult was intended and that they are big Ghibli fans. Also I don't think this was the only time they used movie pictures for Say What? as I think they used a Dragonheart screenshot once.
"But I threw them away after reading, not knowing better at the time."
I feel that. Even my mom told me how dumb I was, but I didn't listen.
Oh God yes.
I can't believe I threw out some of the magazines.
@@eatatjoes6751 Same
This is so fucking nostalgic. I only had a SINGLE Nickelodeon Magazine (they weren't that popular here in Brazil), but I read it so many times. Matter of fact, it was one of the first things I ever remember reading, I got it when I had just learned how to read.
I remember seeing one issue with an angry fan letter addressing the Castle in the Sky screenshot of the "Say What" feature, which claimed that they made fun of Miyazaki's work. The editors cleared it up and said they were fans of Miyazaki and Castle in the Sky.
I also remember one of the pranks in one issue being a fake DVD cover that combined all of the major animated films released around 2005 and 2006 with one long title (the ones I remember included were Cars, Happy Feet, Over the Hedge, and Flushed Away).
These were some issues I checked out of curiosity, and I remember some of the comics made for the magazine like one called "Impy and Wormer" with a worm and what I thought was a beetle.
i remember there being an issue where they gave readers a poll on who should play Draco Malfoy in "the sequel to Harry Potter and and the sorcerer's stone (Chamber of secrets)", and i remember Bart Simpson being one of the choices and i got hyped thinking they were going to recast Draco with a cartoon character, and it being Bart Simpson of all people lol
Nickelodeon Magazine! The only Kids Magazine where Lisa and Naruto can mingle!
Amazing tagine for it
The pinnacle of when Nickelodeon had creativity. Kinda fitting that the magazine died when the logo changed.
Ikr
The new logo is bland and boring. i remember i was a kid, I turned On the TV to watch Nickelodeon and damn that logo is boring to look at. I was really disappointed.
It's like the channel went from a fun and imaginative child to a boring adult. It's actually kind of tragic.
@@PIB2000 .
I used to have the last issue of Nick Magazine but I lost it
I feel your pain Nick
I remember reading an interview of Gennedy Tartavosky on the mag, kinda cool they let a bit of Cartoon Network on it
Thumbnail at 3:58
May god bless your soul
Me: Sees thumbnail
Also me: WHAT DID YOU BRING UPON THIS ACCURSED LAND!!!!
Uh, okay then
Collider: Gives Detective Pikachu a good review.
Also Collider: Considers Detective Pikachu mediocre.
I had a flashback to when i cut that exact pic out of the summer nick mag because i thought it was so funny as a kid
ok but why use a fucking me:
@@originaluseername i read that in marios voice
"oki but why use a fucking me?"
Nick Mag was my favorite back in the day. The fact that they were able to reference cartoons from other channels, while the Nick channel itself couldn’t, blew my child mind
I remember reading that one toon weekly article about naruto dating Lisa Simpson at the eye doctors office I still don't know how they got away with that.
1:20 holy shit! They had the Moomins? Why did I not know this?
I remember having an issue of Nick Magazine from 2009. The only piece of it I still have is the DIY Boating School license.
1:24 Moomin was in Nick Magazine?! Is this a joke, or the real deal?
Like seriously my bigest question is did nickelodeon get rigts from moomin characters or what and why moomins no body (except us finns and swedes) realy knew or cared about moomins befor this year
Yes, one of the issues had a spotlight on Moomin.
It’s real, in fact it was my introduction to moomin.
I loved this magazine as a kid! Like you, I threw away them all after I was done with them, which I sorely regret now. I have a lot of fond memories of all the weird things in this magazine. For example, does anyone else remember the video game chat room in which Sonic said that Dr. Eggman no longer went by the name "Robotnik" because his mom remarried? That one gag is, for some reason, what I remember most vividly from when I was a kid.
Seeing Warner Bros/Cartoon Network stuff in a Nickelodeon magazine is pretty weird.
Didn't Nick use to air Looney Tunes and Tiny Toons?
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives Yeah but I'm pretty sure that was before CN was established
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives I feel like I remember TinyToons being on Nicktoons around 2005 or 2006
@@VideoMajima it was
MAD Did That in The CN Show So No Brainer...
"I got my self a light Saber, I keep it my closset"
- Darth Vader
I remember Nick would air that one commercial all the time back then.
"Nickelodeon Magazine... PLEASE."
Great video as always. ^-^
I remember reading a magazine from April 2001 several times. Strangely enough, I don't remember any comics, I only remember the interview with Nancy Cartwright and a Pokemon Stadium ad. Also a page for two "brand new shows" called The Fairly Oddparents and Invader Zim. Not much aside from that though.
Man I miss the Nickelodeon Magazine. I still have mine since 2002 when the Wild Thornberry Movie came out in theater.
I have every issue of Nickelodeon Magazine from I believe July 2002 until it's final issue in 2009. I'll always be annoyed that it ended at issue #159.
Dude you gotta do something... find a way to preserve them, maybe even for others to enjoy!
I used to be subscribed to nick magazine in the late 90s/early 2000s (I was like 8-13) and I read MAD a lot too but didnt have my own subscription to it. i found a lot at a yard sale a few times,and the ones i didnt have i would find at the library.
edit/
(I kept watching the video and forgot to mention)
Most of the game ads that were in the nickelodeon magazines,i had em all on my bedroom walls like a collage of gaming nostalgia..
I dont have any of them anymore,they were all etiher destroyed or lost while moving :(
the comics in them contributed to some of my ocs i made around those ages,i made so many weird little comics with them ,and that turned into me now wanting to work in animation..
This magazine was the ultimate ambitious crossover
And this is why I will never throw out my Nick Magazines, or the rival Disney Adventures magazines.
You never know when you might need a dose of nostalgia.
FINALLY SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT THIS GEM OF A MAG I STILL HAVE MINE. I was even subbed when they stopped they had to send us something to say they’ll reimburse us
I'm sure I still have a dozen of these Nick mags still today. Nice to learn about Zelda Gutter more and what a great nostalgia trip
Thank you for uploading this. I had good times reading Nick Magazine. I've been having a rough day too and I'm glad you're here to make things better...
Nostalgia at it's finest
Honestly, toon weekly sounds like a great idea for a cartoon network show.
EDIT: dang, thanks
i prey on little kids
@@funnyman-es6oo don't worry I was planning on toning it down a little.
EDIT: wait a minute.
This is literally CN City there's a lot of characters crossover in this section it's CnCity taking to extreme and this time it's all cartoon characters except is not a Cn City
@@12345marios you know I was planning on responding to you months ago, but I had other things to do so I'm doing it now. You see i want to keep the idea of cartoon characters roming around a modern city, but the general concept of the show is actually about 6 kids who decide to start a newspaper business with every episode focusing on them going on an adventure either with or focused around a specific character.
@@bellbito7318 That actually sounds like a good idea. You might want to hold onto it and flesh it out, more.
Boy, you really gave me a blast from the past, I was subscribed to their club from 2006 until the very end. I was always excited when a new issue came in the mail. I do still have some of the special comic books, but I'll have to look for them.
When Nickelodeon magazine ended subscribers were given Sports Illustrated Kids instead, which got on my nerves since I was not a fan of sports at all.
I still have the "It's William Howard Taft Appreciation Day, Charlie Brown!" prank DVD cover in my School of Rock DVD.
End game: We are the most ambitious crossover of all time.
This thumbnail: *BOY*
I remember collecting these when I was a kid, and I remember being devastated when they ended, but now I have hundreds to cherish. That I can't read or sell because I ripped the pages out and drew on them. Because I collected them when I was like 5. Fun!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that wanted to pet Zelda. RIP Nick's bestest dog.
I had a subscription to Nick Magazine and those things were the BEST!! As soon as it came in the mail, I’d binge read the whole thing in one sitting, then go through the whole thing again and investigate each page for all the little quirky add-ins. The comics section actually helped me learn how to draw, and now I’m an illustrator! Ughhh these magazines were incredible. And you can tell the staff had fun making them!
This video really brought back some memories, I was subscribed to Nick magazine for a few years as a kid so I read quite a few issues. Some of the pages you showed throughout the video I remember owning the issues of. Good times...its a shame kids today don't seem to have anything similar...
Talk about a nostalgia trip! I had a Nick Magazine subscription back in elementary school and I remember almost all these issues you showed. The creativity still stuck with me to this day. Also 1:23 I never realized that the Moomins were in there!
This video brought me straight back to my childhood when I always had a fun time reading these magazines. Thankfully, I still have some of my old issues stowed away somewhere so I can thankfully re-visit them, whenever I'm in that kind of a nostalgic mood. I appreciate you making this video to remind us of how Nickelodeon knew just how to entertain us when they published these great magazines
Bro! Nick magazine was my shit back in the day.
Yeah!
I remember Nick magazine! Around 2006-2007, I had a few magazines, (dunno where they are now) but I remember cutting out EVERYTHING Spongebob related and making a makeshift compliation for this girl who was extremely obsessed with Spongebob. She even ended up singing the theme song at our talent show.
Weird times.
I loved this magazine as a kid! I wasn't a subscriber since I preferred Nintendo Power, but I would usually get a few copies as gifts from relatives in the height of the Spongebob craze. I actually owned the Lisa X Naruto episode, which was given to me when I was at home sick with the flu. I really did love all the weirdness within the pages. I also remember there being a "good VS evil clowns" gag on one page that blatantly listed Krusty the Clown as evil.
Much respect for the Nickelodeon Party Blast results music at 5:00.
Seeing shark hunters again gave me the biggest burst of nostalgia i've had in a long time... I used to love these but all of my copies are all torn and worn out because i used to read them so much! ;-;
Me seeing the thumbnail: no way in hell thats actually real
Me at 3:58 : Didnt know nick was into fanfiction also wtf
When I saw anime Sandy I was hooked.
Thanks for the Memories, Nicktendo. This was a fondly remembered magazine from my childhood. It makes me sad that nearly all the periodicles I subscribed to as a kid are gone now. From Nick Mag to Lego Mag to Nintendo Power, I cherished waiting for them to show up in my mailbox every month. Just another experience most kids nowadays have bypassed in the digital age, I suppose
I freaking missed out on Nick Magazine except for a Henry and June mascot issue, but I remembered wanting more because of that one commercial.
I remember reading a lot of this and Disney Adventures Magazine.
I had one of these as a kid. All I can remember is that one of the pages was this thing where all the Nick characters were surfing, with some part of their bodies obscured, and you had to try and guess which character was which. Good memories.
Gosh, seeing all those old pages brings me back. My grandma got me a subscription to Nick and I LOVED reading them! Too bad my cat found where I stored all my issues and turned 90% of them to shreds. :(
12:24 "All they had to advertise was CN Real."
Well, they also promoted Total Drama Action and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which...really shows how HUGE those two shows were back in the day. Notice they also weren't full-fledged CN productions...
Hey, speaking of old magazines, there was one that I remember quite vividly, but I can't remember which magazine it was. However, the comic strip within was a '90s gem; Pokemon vs the Teletubbies. It featured either Squirtle or Bulbasaur, Charmander and Pikachu all trying to zap the little abominations into oblivion, but unable to stand against their maddening TV screen songs. At the very climax, Onix enters the fray and crushes the Teletubbies into paste. The paste is then scraped into Poke Balls as to seal them away. As a kid, I thought it was hilarious. I seem to be the only person who remembers it, but I can't locate it anywhere. I recall it being one of those unofficial Pokemon mags like Beckett, but I could be wrong. Think you could track it down?
my grandma bought me a subscription when i was a kid. i loved it so much! i would re read my issues constantly i really miss them
Same, I loved reading these magazines as a kid!
Oh Yeah I kept most of my Nick Magazines I looked through most of them I was trying to find that one comic of Avatar where they let in characters created by fans to be in the comic. I am so glad that I kept them. Especially the one with the castle in the Sky Say What?
Had a subscription as a kid. Got this one that was 3d only and it was dope. I remember an article in it talking about sky projection. Ah memories
Edit: Omg you brought out the 3d version!
I love original and entertaining content, oh I love that dog
I remember always reading these in the school library. I think I only ever owned one though, and that was the Spongebob anniversary issue. My favorite was definitely that anime/cartoon tabloid.
Oh I just saw some spongebob comics yesterday! I didn’t know that they originated from nickelodeon magazine.
I still have a stack of Nick Mags in my desk (along with a bunch of Nat Geo Kids Mags), and it's always fun to take a look at them, especially the ads. Like, ya'll remember Yogos? The Yogurt Balls??? Neither did I until I looked through my Nick magazines a few months ago.
_Nick Magazine, was Weird, but also very Cool_
-Quote inspired by Billiam
The mid 2000's was a wild land without rules
Man, I missed these things from when I was a kid. They take me back to when I saw a Jimmy Neutron and Danny Phantom comic strip. Probably part of the reason I wanna do comics these days.
I remember the issue that cane with a cut-out chess game that you would use tape to make the pieces. It was all spongebob themed. And the article was about how to play and had some basic tips.
Plot twist: The magazines you bought were Josh’s
My fourth grade class used to have every 2009 issue. My favorite one was the one all about SpongeBob. Aside from the Wimpy Kid books, they were the only things I'd read in class during silent reading time. Good times.
This is a memory I forgot I had! 😂 I remember seeing issues of Nick Magazine at my local grocery store, but I don't think I ever got to buy one. It's too bad this magazine died, it seemed to have had some cool ideas. Great video!
I love both this video and Zelda Van Gutters!
Late 90’s early 2000’s are such an aesthetic I fucking swear
Awesome video! I used to own so many of these. I specifically remembered a lot of the ones you shared in this video.
Congrats on 100k man! You've earned it! 😉👍
There's something moving about this thumbnail... Two friends from different walks of life sharing their interests.
I hate it.
Great video! I remember when it library day back in elementary I would run to get the latest copy of Nickelodeon magazine those were the days
I subscribed to Nickelodeon magazine back in the day. It's so great to see you drawing attention to this much underrated publication.
And gosh, to think that we could have had a Shark Hunters animated series!
Thank you for covering this!
i wish i was born earlier cause i'd love to see those weird 90's and early 2000's ads on tv and stuff like this and yeah
Ahhhh this was the best magazine ever. So much love put into it.
This video was a trip down memory lane. Getting old sucks.
It's fitting that CatScratch, a show based on a graphic novel, was later adapted into a comic.
damn i miss this magazine so much, even if i only had it for a little over a year.
on a related note, remember those nickelodeon puzzle magazines? with like, crosswords and mazes and brain teasers and stuff themed around then-current nickelodeon shows?
This reminds me a lot of The French Scrooge McDuck magazine in terms of style and type of humor
And thankfully these are still going strong
Also for me,reminds me Polish CN Magazine,but with a original humor.
I have all of mine from 2001 - 2004-5? Unfortunately some of the pages have been cut out, but all still intact.
I had a whole bunch of Nickelodeon magazines but sadly they all got thrown away. I wish I still had them.
Happy 100k subscribers, nick
I never really got to read any of the Nick Mags as much as I wanted to and still want to i hope they bring it back that will make me and a bunch of other people extremely happy
So many memories have just been unlocked in my head; may or may not look at prices for lots on eBay later...
Now I have that song you used at the end stuck in my head.
Fun fact: Nickelodeon Magazine once used a screen grab from a Studio Ghibli film ( the one where the floating girl and the boy, can’t remember the name of the movie) as part of their caption contest. And someone else called them out in their next issue complaining about tainting Miyazaki’s work.
sometimes I comment before watching the video too
I'm so glad that somebody remembers this.
I only had the opportunity to read two issues that my dad bought me because he’s awesome.
It had damn good reading material
Woah, your channel’s been growing a lot my dude. You’re almost at 100K 😄😆
If you order something in the mail and they stick a "Reverse" Uno card inside I think you legally have to send it back.
I was just thinking about this. Nicktendo u read my mind
There's some great stuff in those mags that could've made great TV shows
Holy shit... I completely forgot Nickelodeon Magazine and Zelda Van Gutters! This got totally wiped from my memory banks until now! And the magazine was pretty wholesome, too. Nice. Thank you for reminding me of this
I still have a whole pile of these magazines in my room. I don't remember ever receiving them but they are burned into my brain forever
