I just went and picked my copy of this up. It's very nice. Has TONS of pictures, prices, and even lists variations. Great book for the Pre-nes era.

The games are arranged by manufacturer which is different, but I'm getting used to it. Yea, for new bathroom reading.

Thanks everyone so far for the orders. For everyone’s info we are wrapping the books in a plastic bag and then we have a very sturdy cardboard box that has almost inch long wings on each end to help with impact. I have mailed out 100's and many have said they arrived perfect and have not heard of any damaged books.
We will be attanding the Midwest Gaming Classic this weekend and will have books for sale both days of the show.
