    Default Kickstarter for N64 Anthology

    https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...-ultimate-book

    I saw the link on NintendoLife and thought I'd pass it along. Not sure if I'll jump on this yet, being an avid N64 fan. I gotta say it's mighty tempting.

    Thoughts?

    Tempting, but 55 euros shipped is a hell of a lot to lay down. Reluctant pass from me.

    This is right up my alley, I love photos and a moderate amount of text! I may have to do the full one, including box art. Only reservation I have is they're in France. Does anyone think this will limit their comprehensiveness?

    I'll be honest and say that when I saw the cover and slipcase, I was excited. When I saw their sample pages and realized it's laid out like one of those $20 retro magazine/books put out by Retro Gamer and other British publishers, I was disappointed and decided not to back it. It just looks sloppy to me and not premium or well designed enough to justify the price or the really beautiful cover and slipcase.

    It looks to be made for the collectors only. I would be interested in a digital version --you know, for READING, not collecting -- but from what I can tell, that's not on offer.

    Agreed that it looks like the Retro Gamer bookazines, which are cute but outlasting their welcome to me.
