I've had a look through Issue Two of Retro Gamer magazine (which
is now bi-monthly) in WHSmith without purchasing it. Although not
enough to make me buy the second issue, there is some MM/JSW content:

1. Miner Willy is included in a list of all-time favourite computer-
game characters. Lara Croft is also included; Kari Krišníková is not.

2. There's a complete list of all the commercial MM/JSW releases for
all platforms (from Spectrum to GameBoy), which even includes the
JSW-editors by Paul Rhodes and by Softricks. If anyone has bought
the magazine, a transcript of this list would be appreciated.

3. A rare Japanese JSW ROM appears in a list of hard-to-find
collectibles.

4. There's a full-page reproduction of the JSW cover-art.
