I noticed that the GamePro issue numbers don't match the issue index on the wiki. Issue 6 might actually be issue 7, and so forth. Also, I noticed many of the later issues are 10 issue numbers behind what is said on the covers (as noted in the descriptions). I don't quite understand; is this something GamePro goofed on? Just thought you guys would like to know.

This has been brought up several times before. Between the March 1996 and April 1996 issues, GamePro added 10 to the issue count. I don't remember exactly why, but they might have considered special issues they used to put out like "16-Bit Video Gaming", "Video Game Greatest Hits" and "GamePro's Celebrity Video Gamers", among others. It wasn't a goof since they did it on purpose.

The numbering is correct in the wiki and in the Download, gallery, and project tracker sections. Issue 7 is Issue 7, and Issue 6 isn't available on here. If you are ferring to the file names displayed in CDisplay when you are reading Issue 7, it was a mistake by whomever named the files.
