Nintendos Wii has already captured the imagination of gamers worldwide thanks to its innovative control method, classic gaming characters and the addition of the Virtual Console, which will enable Wii owners to download some of the very best retro games ever made - from Super Mario Bros to Sonic the Hedgehog. To fully capture the essence of both the new console and Nintendos well-known characters, there was only ever one person capable of producing a worthy cover - Wil Overton.

"Its great to see Wils fantastic art recapturing the spirit of Nintendo," said Darran Jones, Editor of Retro Gamer.

Retro Gamer is the UKs only magazine that is fully dedicated to retro gaming and is highly respected within both the games industry and the retrogaming community.
