Our sales of Ultimate Nintendo magazine from Derwent Howard have collapsed with the latest issue. One copy sold in seven weeks on-sale. This makes Ultimate Nintendo loss making for us by the time we cost in retail real-estate and labour. This magazine may go the way of some computer game magazines overseas … gone. At the very least in our store based on sales numbers, we need to significantly cut supply.
The Australian published a report today that a winding up notice had been issues against Derwent Howard. The report also notes that Ultimate Nintendo has been transferred to another company.
