I remember those books!  I used to have a bunch as well.  I wonder if I could still find them…

Indeed you can still find them. The two books in the whole series not to feature Mario were based on the Legend of Zelda, and both books go for a lot of money from what research I’ve done..

I meant I wondered if I could find my old books in storage somewhere.  It’s not too surprising that folks will pay top dollar for these books.  Personally, I couldn’t see myself buying these as I have no interest in reading them.

 

I do need to get some collectibles though to round out my collection…

I started collecting artbooks for certain games. For instance I purchased this really cool Tales of Phantasia artbook with a lot of beautiful drawings!

I have a bunch of Nintendo Power Issues from the NES and SNES era. I did get a Ness Amiibo. I try to get strategy guides for games too.
