Nintendo Games Secrets, Volume 2 (Secret of the Game Series)

Rating:
Summary: Great strategys...but Meston should have gotten top billing.
Review: Amazon.com is advertising the 3rd book, rather than the first one that I ended up buying. However, if you are a retro system fan, it is very much worth your while to find these books. I find them much better than most other hint books on the market. DeMaria has proved himself time and again that he is master of the games. Even more than Jeff Rovin. :p

Review: There are 4 books in this series and all 4 are worth what little you can purchase them for nowadays. There are 10-15 games covered in-depth in each book and most of them are covered from beginning to end. I've actually emailed the co-author, Zach Meston, and he was actually the workhorse behind this series of books, with DeMaria taking most of the credit. There is actually an interview posted on the web where he discusses this.

Anyways, these 4 books are a must for someone trying to beat NES games. They put the Rovin books to shame.
