Code Monkey 1,755 Member · Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Does anyone know where I can find this book? I found this in the manual for the game and I'm wondering if anyone actually sent in for this book. I'd like to buy a copy of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore 3,602 Member · Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I've never seen it. Maybe it was never actually printed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O.G. CIB 390 Member · Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I’ve never seen it. Dain from NA had an old e-zine he did that has researched all the mail in items. @acidjaguar May know better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin532 457 Member · Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Some of those mail order guides can be very obscure. So much so that not everyone knows if they all exist or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doner24 1,096 Moderator · Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 If this one exists, a copy has never surfaced. I would bet they never got enough orders and it never came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaryice 456 Member · Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 It could've easily been a sheet of paper rather than a book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidjaguar 249 Member · Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 My guess would also align to what's being mentioned. It most likely was a few pages of typed material that was sent to any person requesting it like what we've seen previously on adventure island, immortal, etc. Given it was Hudson Soft, I would hope there are a few out there, but likely if there were a few that made it out to people, those few turn into even smaller numbers as people are cleaning house and this falls into the "just printouts" category and gets trashed. If it was a book, there would be a few out there no matter what and I would hard pressed to believe that it is at this point as none have ever surfaced and I (and others) have been closely monitoring eBay for this kind of stuff since early 2000s and if all of our eyes missed this, then shame on us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, you need to do a photo/video gallery of all of your paper. Especially if you've been doing this since early 2000s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have free time in a couple of weeks (cough, cough) I could throw some hours at something like this just to stay active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes a lot of sense and actually explains some typed up Ninja Gaiden tips I found a few months ago. Probably the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I have a very similar letter with mailer where they included a free copy of the Worlds of Power Ninja Gaiden book (by Scholastic) like they are mentioning in yours. Looks like they wanted some more business from the receiver and offered them some slick deals to purchase more stock! hah. I'll try and get a pic up here later today for reference.
