    Default Is there a database for game manuals somewhere?

    Is there a place to go to get old game manuals/instruction books online?

    You know, Like where you can print them in Acrobat format?

    What kind of manuals are you looking for?

    Here are some links:
    http://www.vimm.net/ They have NES & SNES
    http://www.nesfiles.com/games/ Some manuals for the NES


    If I find more I'll post them. But let us know what systems you would like.

    ya know, I never was going to mention this, but I wanted to do a website with every game booklet listed. I had a partner and we even bought the web address of www.gamebooklets.com

    We were going to scan in manuals and build a library, but it never got started because we figured we would get sued for having exact copies of video game books on our website for download.

    I mention this because you can go to www.nintendo.com and buy books for NES,SNES,N^$, Virtual Boy, GC , Gameboy. Nintendo still sells originals and copies of booklets.

    www.replacementdocs.com has quite a good amount from all systems young and old!!!! And they update pretty often.

    And www.genesisproject.co.uk has some Sega Genesis ones too.
