I have a bunch of these from 2007 to about 2012 (imo the peak years of gaming). Are these worth anything on eBay or am I just holding a bunch of nostalgia?
nostalgia is why they would be worth anything. I’d stick them on ebay as a joblot for 50 quid, buyer pays postage. They’ll probably sell

They can’t even sell the new ones that’s why they went out of business, but seriously probably not. I have this exact magazine sitting in my closet.

Magazines are very easy to find online copies of. Places like Internet Archive and the like.
The only value they serve is to you, this was YOUR generation of gaming and collecting mags.
If you are low on space, pick out the ones that cover games that are meaningful to you and bin the rest

Definitely not. Was just at a comic conversation and a vendor had professionally graded and slabbed issues of Nintendo Power from 30+ years ago, he was selling them for $15/issue.

No they aren’t.

The problem is that everyone had the subscription back then. There will be more supply than demand for a long time. If you keep them in good shape for another 20 years…maybe.

all these people on their high horse.
in twenty years someone will incept the idea that this old garbage *is* in fact worth something, the same way they have with boxed Nintendo games.
all the people telling you these are worthless have taken it for granted that something happened between 2009 and 2018 or whatever, and games that previously couldn’t be given away *were discovered* to be worth $200, somehow.
it’s exactly the same scam as a pump & dump stock. you just have to convince people that other people are doing it, and that they’re gonna miss out.
