The SNES Omnibus: The Super Nintendo and Its Games, Vol. 1 (A–M)

“This book has a great collection of game-related stories that really take me back to the ’90s, when I had so much fun playing the heck out of the Super Nintendo. ~ Steve Woita,  game designer/programmer of Atari 2600 Taz, Garfield, Asterix and Quadrun.”
