-Speedy

VideoGames  & Computer Entertainment: Complete Guide to Nintendo Video Games

The strange thing is they connected VideoGame the first time and spaced Video Games the second. Maybe they like being on the edge...

Anyways this rates games on sound/music, graphics, playability, violence, overall.

Ok, it's been added, thanks Anthony!

-Speedy

this list is getting pretty thorough. it would be nice to see it in the database complete with scans. that would be a nice addition to the site.

what do you you think Pearl?

Good idea; I already have all of mine scanned (the ones with the ** in front of them) & rdy to submit. ;)

-Speedy

I have at least the one addition and am willing to scan it if needed.  I may have a few of the others that are needed as well.

I would scan mine as well.

Sheff, David; _Game Over:  How Nintendo Zapped an American
Industry, Captured Your Dollars, and Enslaved Your Children_;
0-679-40469-4; Random House; 1993; $25.00; 445p; HC.
Arcade:  DONKEY KONG.
Notes:  [The following notes are excerpts from a post on
rec.games.video.classic.  Things in quotes are chapter names.]  Very
interesting novel about the history of Nintendo.  Went into great
detail about the origin of the company in Japan (creating playing
cards), all the way to about mid '92. "I, Mario" details key creative
people, including Sigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Donkey Kong, which
introduced the Mario character. "For A Fistful of Quarters" explored
Nintendo of America's offering of a table top version of Donkey Kong
in bars.  It goes into Sidney Sheinberg's lawsuit against NOA for the
use of the King Kong character in the Donkey Kong game (the lawsuit
failed). "Reversal of Fortune" goes into the history of Nolan
Bushnell, and Atari's rise and fall. (jaime)

       Sheff, David; _Game Over:  How Nintendo Conquered the World_;
0-679-73622-0; Vintage Books; 1994; $13.00?; [?]p; PB.
Arcade:  DONKEY KONG.
Notes:  There is supposed to be a significant difference between the
hard cover and paperback.  Please submit more information if you have
it.

NOTE:
I copy pasted the info from a long dead website:
http://home.hiwaay.net/~lkseitz/cvg/cvglit.shtml

Thanks Anthony, I've added those books to the list under 'History Books'.  

I also added the following:

**CVG - The Esstential Guide to Mega Games (Volume 1, December 1992)
**CVG - Rock Hard Book of Tips (EMAP Images; covers MegaDrive, SNES, Amiga, PC, Master System, and NES)

Added the following book thanks to Xevious:

Thanks!  I've added the info to the list :)

ISBN to Mastering Nintendo Video Games (Hayden Books) is ISBN 0-672-48464-1, published in 1989

Info added, thanks! :)

Added a cover variation for How to Win at Super Mario Bros. Games

Long overdue bump to see if anybody has or knows of any guides missing in the first and third posts of this thread! 

Added:

Adventures of Lolo:  Strategy Guide (mail-order only???)
Game Counsellor's Answerbook for Nintendo Game Players, The (covers more than 250 Nintendo games; Game Counsellor, Inc; Australia)
Game Player's Encyclopedia of Nintendo Games:  Volume Seven
Pop & Play Nintendo Game Instructions ("instructions" for more than 270 Nintendo games to master them)
Super Consoles - Super Mario Bros. 3 (guide to SMB 3; Spain)
Wizardry:  All of Wizardry - The Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord (from Nexoft; covers NES, may cover multiple systems)

If anybody can confirm the existance of Game Player's Encyclopedia of Nintendo Games:  Volume Five & Volume Six, let me know!  It's amazing how rare some of the volumes are...given that volume seven exists, five and six must be out there, too!  If anyone is looking for a good read, I'd recommend picking one up, volume 3 is the most common and also fairly comprehensive...lots of color, and sections for not only games, but also NES accessories, companies, etc.  The third volume even has the walkthrough to California Raisins if I'm not mistaken.  ;)

Added:

Das Nintendo Schummelbuch (covers GB, NES, SNES; Sybex; MSRP 230 Schillings; Austra)

Here's one I just picked up that isn't listed under the Interactive section.
