The Nintendo Power Line was a hotline that provided readers of Nintendo Power magazine hints to their favorite video games on Nintendo consoles, such as the Nintendo Entertainment System.[1] It ran from the publishing of the first issue publication of Nintendo Power in 1988 until June 2010, closing due to the Internet becoming more widespread.[2] It was revived from November 11 to November 13, 2016 in celebration of the release of the NES Classic Edition.[3] The messages of the revived format, however, were automated rather than being live.[3]
