Studio 8 Opens Nintendo
University

Nintendo University, the concept of one Dr. Imagoucho, is finally ready for its
first semester of enrollment. What began in 1989 as an experimental
collegiate-level educational game, quickly grew too big for its original plans.
Fast forward twelve years and tour the freshly-built, 45-acre Nintendo
University which caters to gamers from all over the world.
JONATHAN O'DOOLE
(recipient of the first ever Samus Aran Scholarship)
"I've played Metroid and Super Metroid every day of my life. I camped out
for Metroid II when it came out for Game Boy. I haven't beaten any of them
yet, but with this scholarship, which I will use to purchase some neat strategy
guides, I will probably come pretty close. If I do that, I'll just die a
happy man. Look out, Mother Brain, I'm coming!"
