Compute's Guide to Nintendo Games

Sinopse

This is a reviews, tips, and strategies book of 40 full game reviews for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and 5 short reviews. Each full reviews has a gray-scale screenshot, a 'Review' of the game, its 'Instructions' booklet, a 'Features' section describing the type of game it is, remarks on the game's 'Sound and Graphics', 'Challenge', and 'Play Value'. Besides the reviews the the largest section for nearly each game is its 'Tips, Tricks, and Strategies'. The short reviews look at five things in the games reviewed such as the "Classification" type of game it is, name of the "Manufacturer" of the game, "Price" of what it would generally cost, the games story and review in a section titled "Impression", and lastly a 'Tips, Tricks, and Strategies' section. The next section is a 'Super Secrets' section, with additional tips, for 24 of the full review games, written in mirror face type, and a composite 'Play Value' chart comparing the full review games, as well as to the game "Fist of the North Star" not otherwise reviewed in the book. The third section of the book has reviews of controllers and other accessories, which tells the name of the "Manufacturer", its "Price" and other things about the items. The last section is a guide for parents on violence, Violence rating information for the games and a game index, and controller index.
