Was it the German Club Nintendo magazine?

Not too sure actually; I tried searching but I only found comics explicitly featuring classic Nintendo characters (like Kirby and Mario) while the comic I'm looking for mostly centers around kids rather than Nintendo characters. I did find this
and the N-gang section sounds plausible (as the matter of fact, that appears to be what I'm looking for as it features the aforementioned kids and Mariowiki states N-Gang comics were made in Germany), but the links I'm given lead to a german forum thread that requires registering in order to be able to follow the links I'm given so I can't check. I think the comic in question is Die Götter des Olymp (the spreadsheet mentions Epona, which is the only Nintendo character I recall appearing in the comic), but as I said, I can't check without registering.
EDIT: So I decided to register and download the issue with the Die Götter des Olymp comic. I scrolled through the PDF file to the comic, and it's indeed what I've been looking for! It has the cookie eating contest, the basketball game and even the Epona part. I can't believe I didn't search the German Club Nintendo search results hard enough. Thanks.
No Problem! Happy to help.

I just remembered I used to read this german Nintendo comic book or whatever it was when I was little... But alas, I can't for the life of me recall what it was or what its name was. I know it had a comic, but I don't know if it was a comic book or some sort of magazine.
I remember it had two parts:
- One part involved kids using game cartridges or whatever to give themselves superpowers and win at games. I remember two of these: one where they use Yoshi's Cookie (or whatever game it was that had Yoshi in it) to give one of the kids a Yoshi tongue and appetite which made him win a cookie eating contest, and another one where they do the same thing with a Donkey Kong game (making one of the kids highly athletic) which helps them win a basketball game.
- The other part involved a kid using Link's ocarina from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. He first plays Song of Time which makes him very short, and then he plays Epona's Song which makes Epona appear before him. Then there's this... "girl" character (I can't really remember) who dares/challenges the kid to jump over the swing in the playground on Epona. He tries to jump over and... I can't remember what happens next. I think the horse doesn't make it over the swing and falls onto it halfway over, but all I remember is a comic shot of Epona from the front situated right above the swing.
