Wow, so this pretty much proves that they do care about the adult fanbase and consider them as part of their targets

^ Kalos made that obvious.

Interesting though. The interviews will probably be the more interesting aspect.

Yes, but still, there has never been something 'specifically' targeted at people in their 20s. I think it's worth noting.

Too bad this is probably going to be only in Japanese and not posted online.

As it's been said, this proves that they do take the older fans into consideration. Hopefully this is a sign that maybe... MAYBE... they may just start making proper adjustments for the main series games and yet still be able to draw in the younger, newer fans.

Also, something tells me that this magazine is likely going to be a Japan-exclusive. Which sucks.

I don't know why so many sites are saying this is a periodical. None of what I'm seeing in any of the Japanese promotional materials for this magazine hint at this being anything more than a one time thing.
