Cube-Eyrope has the skinny:
"Friday, 12 December, the latest issue of Nintendo Official Magazine UK (NOM UK) will be available bundled with a FREE playable demo disc. Readers who buy their copy from GAME stores will receive a three-level playable demo of Sega’s Billy Hatcher & the Giant Egg (with single and multiplayer options), an official inflatable Nintendo toy (Bullet Bill, Bowser or Ganondorf), PLUS a free pack of Pokémon STAKS (collectible character magnets)."
Woo. And they mentioned the Feb issue comes with a "a highly collectible Super Smash Bros. Melee music CD, which until now has only been available in Japan".
I won't be buying the Jan issue.. already have Billy Hatcher - top game mostly, but the Melee music disk could be pretty decent, I was happy with the Zelda one they covermounted a few months back.
Anyway. Definately a move in the right direction for NOM, no? Shame it's only happend now though..

How small is "small"?
Like.. hold it in the palm of your hand small?

Damn, I got Ganondorf and he's quite shockingly small, I was hoping for something bigger that you can actually punch properly
The demo disk is good though, 3 levels over 3 difficulties, not too shabby...

Ive got my copy, what a great free gift Game thanks, the bullit bill was cool too, i might buy another to get bowser and gannon,
Not bad, but it's GAME who's being "generous" and NOM who's tagging along.
I wonder when NOM will be able to make their own independant demo disks every month, like the Xbox and PS2 mags.

Got my copy of the mag in the post today, but didn't have no free CD!
:(

Usually costs £3.95 I think, which for a mag (albeit not half as entertaining as NGC, an inflatable, a demo disk and some magnets ain't too shabby.
And Billy Hatcher's alright, first few levels are very good. Definately worth trying if you haven't played it already: and this is a perfect oppurtunity.

It's a shame it only a demo of Billy Hatcher cos I already have one...
Anyway, it's good to see that Nintendo have finally listened though

Inflatable Bullet Bill... yes!!!!
I bought Billy hatcher for £19 about a month ago, and it was nothing but Mediocre
It was £2.95 when I used to get it.
Then I realised, this is the worst magazine ever, and went for NGC.
