FYI....Prima Games is selling a "The Legend of Zelda Box Set: Prima Official Game Guide " that includes guides from the latest Zelda games.
Included is a "a signature and message from Mr. Eiji Aonuma".
Link (with more details) here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0804161380/
I imagine it could become a collectors item like the limited edition of "Hyrule Historia".

Good find, but boy is that Pricey. Not sure if I'll be willing to partake.

Maybe.

It's down to $116 on Amazon.

I bit.  Although they can't seem to actually answer the questions I'm asking about it...

Thanks for the info, UncleBob! If any Canadian customers are interested, it's currently $102.99 at Amazon.ca!


Personally, I'm interested, but can't quite bring myself to pull the trigger. Though I almost have a complete collection of the Official Nintendo Player's Guides, I don't own any of Prima's, and I fear that purchasing this might open up the floodgates...


What questions have you been asking, UB?


EDIT: Well, I went ahead an pre-ordered it anyway :p

Yeah, it's been down to that for a tenny bit now.

To answer you question, I've asked them two questions, although one is very minor.

In the original printings, some of the books are "deeper" than others.  Since this is a "set", I was hoping they'd be fixing this, making them all the same dimensions (thickness of the book, of course, would vary based on content).  It's minor, but it'd be nice.

The second is too complicated for them to understand, I guess.  I understand that this set won't include any of the cool bonuses (cloth maps, etc.) that the original printings did - but I'm trying to find out if the individual release of the Wind Waker HD Collector's Edition guide is going to have something extra in it that won't be in this box set (i.e.: will I end up wanting to buy that by itself as well?).

This looks pretty sweet. It would be very cool.sub-$100 would probably get me to bite.
