Game Players

''Game Players'' was a monthly video game magazine founded by Robert C. Lock in 1988 and originally published by Signal Research in Greensboro, North Carolina.
The original publication began as ''Game Players Strategy to Nintendo Games'' (the cover featured a tagline that claimed no affiliation with Nintendo). The magazine evolved over the years, even spinning off a separate publication called ''Game Players Sega Genesis Guide'' when Sega entered the console market. These two magazines were later folded together into one magazine.
In 1996, the magazine changed its name to ''Ultra Game Players'' and introduced a radically different format. At the end of its run, it turned into ''Game Buyer'', before being cancelled in 1998.
==History==
''Games Players'' is the first independent monthly video game magazine of the 8-bit generation, and was not affiliated with a first party publisher such as Nintendo or Sega. In addition, it was the first video game magazine to feature a CG cover.
Signal Research was eventually purchased by Future Publishing UK (mainly for ''Game Players'') as an entry into the North American media publishing field. Future Publishing then operated under the name of Imagine Media in the United States.
Humor is included in almost every videogame review and image caption. Readers' letters come at the beginning of the magazine and are often one of the highlights of the magazine. The magazine often includes a "newsletter" with irreverent jokes about magazine staffers, as well as cartoons. The introduction of ''Ultra Game Players'' was intended to coincide with the release of the Nintendo 64 and ''Super Mario 64'', as originally, the Nintendo 64 went by the name Nintendo Ultra 64.
''Ultra Game Players'' features an updated design which places the readers' letters at the end of the magazine. One of the features of ''Ultra Game Players'' is a "prize store" in which readers answered trivia questions for chances to win prizes. However, many readers complained that the humor that had made ''Game Players'' such an enjoyable magazine was missing from the ''Ultra'' version, which prompted a return to form soon after the switch.
''Ultra Game Players'' continued until June 1998, at which point it was replaced by ''Game Buyer''. ''Game Buyer'' ran for four more months before being cancelled by Imagine Publishing.
