Well I only ever read one Super Play so that'd be the one I fancied seeing. It was definately a review of Tournament Fighters - could have been a player's guide of Magical Quest or something, if it was even in there. I could have just seen screenshots of that in a friend's magazine at school or something.
Anyway thanks for all the offers of a scan but I'll just wait until I come accross it online some point in the future. Mags are popping up online all the time so I'm sure I'll see it again at some point.
@Damo - thanks, but I wouldn't want someone to go through the trouble just to satisfy a nostalgic curiosity of mine. If you have them all scanned you should get in touch with a site like http://www.outofprintarchive.com/ as I'm sure they'd worship you as a god if you sent them over.
I just remember reading it whilst my aunt was minding me over some school holidays. Might not have been a review of Magical Quest - just think I saw a screen shot of it at least. I could be wrong - haven't laid eyes on it since the early '90's lol. I'm sure a scan of it will appear online some point in the future.
@GoldenAncona - the date sounds about right. I'd be interested in finding a scan of the mag as remember it pretty well even though I threw the issue out the next month. Mickey's Magical Quest was in there somewhere too I believe.
I've never seen this other than clips on youtube - found the full film on there once but I couldn't bare to watch more than a handful of scenes. I know you shouldn't judge a film if you haven't seen it properly, but there's no way this is even passable as entertainment.
A film about video games is a terrible idea - films based on video games don't work either (although I put that down to lack of skill/effort, Mr Paul WS Anderson).

I only ever had one Super Play magazine - it was the one which reviewed Turtles Tournament Fighters. Anyone know the issue number?
