Chronicles nearly every Mario title
Afterfinding successwith theLegend of Zeldaseries, Dark Horse decided to take a crack at the equally iconicSuper Mario Bros.series in 2015 with theSuper Mario Bros. Encyclopedia.This previously Japanese exclusive book chronicled all of theMarioreleases from the original NES game up toSuper Mario 3D Worldand included tons of concept art alongside maps of specific levels and small tidbits from the development teams.
Now you won’t need to brush up on your Japanese, as the publisher has announced that the book is making its way West. You’ll be able to nab the encyclopedia on October 23 for $39.99 and it will more than likely be getting a “collector’s edition” package like the similarZeldabooks have.
While I’m not typically a reader of such things, I love having comprehensive compendiums of my favorite game series. I have both of the currently releasedZeldabooks (when the hell isthat third onecoming?), so I’ll gladly grab this and not think twice about it.
