This could be a god send for people looking to complete their classic game collections but only finding cartridge only games at flea markets. If you head on over to Nintendo’s website, they have a section where you can purchase reprints of classic game manuals and the selection is quite interesting.
The prices range from $1 to $2 dollars and features everything from NES all the way to Gamecube. What is even more interesting is that it features some non-Nintendo games as well such as Final Fantasy and Starcraft 64 as well as non-manual content like the Dungeon map that came with the NES release of Final Fantasy.
So you can see why this would be a huge thing for people looking to complete their collections. It will also be interesting to see how this effects the people selling these things online. How will they be able to prove whether the manual they are giving you with the game is the reprint or the original? These things are huge to collectors.
