books about Famicom

[manuel]

I'm a lucky owner of a Fami-complete!

*envy*

Fami-Complete is indeed awesome, and I'm glad I picked one up, but if you can get the commemorative book from the Metropolitan Museum exhibition that Manuel mentions in the first post on page one then do it ... in my opinion it's a better book (but I love both!)

[Profeta Yoshitake]

Oh yeah!
There are two different approaches, also!
Each book representing one of them!
They're complementary for me!
1) Fami-complete is the definitive FC/FCD Catalog.
2) The Metropolitan Museum Book has fascinating
interviews with the men that made history in the
video game scene!

I do agree with you, Joppers!
In terms of substance the Museum book is a killer!

I'm still looking for it!

Whoa, I had never heard of Fami-Complete.  Looks awesome.

I have the Metropolitan Museum Book and it's great.  The Engrish in the review portions can be hilarious!

The Miyamoto sayings there in the Museum book are great
guidelines to be a good video game developer/designer.
I think that all the guys at the video game producing business
should read that again and again.
If one of you lucky guys that have this book would transcribe
the Miyamoto interview, it would surely make a great article
for the famicomworld.com!

There's a new book out, called "Our beloved Famicom" and I'm discussing with myself whether it's worth the rather steep 1800 Yen or not...

Is there an English translation in it?

[manuel]

I'm quite sure there's not.
