Nintendo Power V13 is the 13th issue of Nintendo Power magazine, and also the first of the four "Strategy Guide" issues. The cover of the issue labeled it as Vol. SG1/NP13, SG standing for Strategy Guides. Over the next few months, Nintendo Power would release three other issues that focused solely on strategies for specific games, in this case the Nintendo Entertainment System video game Super Mario Bros. 3. No other games were covered in the issue and all of the regular columns were absent.
This issue covered every aspect of Super Mario Bros. 3 in great detail, from every stage to every enemy.
