Thank you for letting me know :) There will sadly be many more mistakes littered in the PDF (mostly grammatically) as I am very bad at proofreading the PDFs after I'm done with a project. I'm so tired of it that I just want it done :p

Haha. It would take me to December :p

Thanks :D

No, I don't see any new book projects in the near future. Wonderswan and Neo Geo Pocket would have been a fun project to cover though.

Hi. So sorry for such a late response. That's great. I hope it will make his research easier :D

Hi :) Sorry for the late reply.  I'm not sure how to answer your question. If you don't have access to your PDFs I can set the ones your missing for free for a time.

Great looking spine on  the books  :D 

Here is my tiny shelf of the books I created. They were bought through lulu.com, but I didn't buy so many because of the high price. Their quality is great though. Too bad I can't purchase more since lulu shut down my account (x_x) I only have one hardcover (FM-7 v1),  but I forgot to create a spine before I uploaded it :p

Hi :) 

I'm very happy you liked it.

The update is only a change to the 'Classification' settings where I changed  it from 'other'  to 'book'. No edits were done  to the PDFs.

From Daniel :D

Thank you for  your kind  comment and thank you  for the information. It seems like itch was missing the "books" cassification when I created the earlier PDFs. i have fixed them now.

Take care.

Hi :)

The preview is located under the purchase files, under the  "Download demo". The download button is a direct link  to download. I think I have a  preview PDF on every paid PDF.

I'm not sure how  to check what files you've got  already, but I think there is a link somewhere  in your profile page. I often set the PDFs  free for download. Is there some of them  you want for free?

Yes, even though I source/steal most of the images and text from  other places, the PDFs  takes a very long time. The PC Engine, for example, took  6 months with (wild  guess) 6-700 work hours. I don't want to think how long the PS2 PDF took. I decided to quit (for the third-fourth time) because I am very bad at time management, becoming obsessed with working on the PDF, which is not good for friends  and family (not a complaint. I do enjoy, for the  most part, creating these PDFs).

From Daniel :D

This is great. I'm really happy for your kind comments.

I have decided to quit several PDFs ago, but I always fall back on making these as they are comfort work (at least for the first 40-50% of the PDF). I have had Wonderswan and NeoPocket in mind several times when deciding on what platform I want to cover. Would have liked to tackle the strange "video" game VHS and laserdisc systems too. But I have a problem with time management when creating them, which makes it difficult for my family :p The last months on the projects  are also pretty tiring as I start  to loose interest. I also have a problem with taking breaks in the middle  of a  project, as I find it difficult to continue where I left off (similar to when I play video games).

It's really cool that you print the PDFs. Do you bind them into a book  form too.  I shudder to  think on the print cost though :p (4500  pages on the PS2  PDF). You don't have to think about donations. Your words are much more valuable  to me  :)

Thanks. I have tried self-promotion on sites and forums before, but I found the shilling rules confusing. Now I just let it be organic - release it here and let it spread (or not) on it's own :p

Thank you :)

Thanks :D

Update 6 days ago

I'm sorry for a late reply. No, I think I'm done after this PDF :)

No, sorry, I don't have anything.

I'm happy you found it useful :)

Haha :) If you manage to beat the game, I'll gift you a key to every paid PDF on https://daddarulekonge.itch.io/. I have never managed to complete it in full myself :p

I'm sorry, I don't think I explained myself. I don't mean you have to proof read the PDF and look for errors. I just meant the design of the pages, such as the color used, more/less magazine articles, something else you would like included, etc. But I agree, It's probably better to wait until the PDF is complete. Thank you for your patronage and have a nice weekend :)

It does. I now have an obligation to complete the project. Is it anything you would change or have included in this PDF?

Hi. No, I don't think so. Most of these PDFs were available in print through lulu.com, but I was removed from their site because of some rules of theirs (they wouldn't give me a concrete reason why). I haven't found something similar to lulu I like. Maybe some day I find something. 

Thank you :)

Thanks. I'm glad you like it :D

NP friend :)

I will set the books as free for  some days

Hi. Yeah, sorry. Lulu purged my account.  They didn't want to give me a good explanation, just a standard copyright strike text. It was apparently because of the N64 PDF I tried to upload.  Annoyed that I can't buy from Lulu anymore since I haven't bought many of the books myself yet :p

I tried using ingramspark, but it looks like I have to buy my own isbn to get a PDF published. Maybe I find something similar to lulu some time later. I don't know :/

Take care :)

Hi. Yeah, sorry. Lulu kicked me off their platform. I have tried looking around, but it's a little difficult finding something that have quality prints and is affordable. I'll send you a comment if I find something. Little annoyed that I can't buy from Lulu anymore since I haven't bought many of the books myself yet.

I'm not working on anything at the moment. I don't know any websites that is a good starting point if you want to make a Xbox or Sega book. When I start a project I first look around the net after a site that have a detailed list of the games library, then I work from there.

I've received your email :D and sent you a download link for the four templates I found that looks somewhat useable. I use a 15 year old InDesign program though, and don't know if they are on the updated InDesign program, but I think it should work fine.

I hope you have fun with your project and manage to complete the NDS book. I think people would be very interested in a book/guide for that system :D

Hi.

I haven't seen a mail from you in the mailbox yet. Maybe you can try again and write "itch" or something in the subject bar when sending a mail.

Yes, off course :)

You can send me a message on the email written on the first page found in the PDFs and we can work out how to send the files. I think creating a book on the DS is great :D

I don't make anything if someone buys it from other vendors than lulu, such as Amazon. It is because I set the price on "global market" (which is a feature where lulu sells the book on other places than lulu) as low as possible (1cent) because of the high price of the books. I'm happy either way if someone buys from lulu or other places :) So when it's possible, then go for the cheapest option ;)

I have thought a lot on doing a Famicom PDF since it would probably be a very fun project. But I don't have any plans on starting one.

I got your mail and will try to find the different templates I've used. They are not very pretty though, but you could maybe use them as a starting point and expand on them if you ever start your own project :D

Hi :) Thanks :D

No I'm sorry I haven't made a physical version yet.

I want to add that the text on the spine on vol.2 is too large and bleeds over to the front and back cover a little bit. I'm okay with it but it does look a little ugly in the bookshelf.

Yes I know I messed up :/ I found out my mistake after I bought the two books myself. It looks like Lulu won't let me change it without making me buy another proof copy. It's only on the Lulu page the title is wrong though. I think it's unlikely Lulu will mess up a order since they only print a book if someone orders it. 

How many of these have you bought? You probably have a bigger library of my books than me soon :p

You can send me a message on the email written on the first page found in the PDFs and we can work out how to send the files. 

That's kind of you to offer but I think I'm more comfortable working alone. If you want to start on a PDF/book yourself then I could give some of the InDesign templates I use when I start a project. I use a fifteen year old InDesign though, so I'm not sure how compatible it will be with the present inDesign software.

I think we are very similar as I also love making lists. Making lists also fits in with my manic collecting :p

Take care. Daniel :D

Hi :D

Sorry for the late reply. I have bought one of the PS1 volumes myself and was also pretty pleased by Lulu's quality. I have not yet looked at how to fix the missing PS2 volumes though, so you may want to wait before buying them if you want to buy every volume. 

I think the PS3 would be a fun project, but the library is so massive that it would probably be bigger than the PS2 PDFs (which I think took a whole year to make). The PSP and Vita would also be fun, but their library is also pretty massive. I really don't know yet if I have it in me to take on such a large project :) 

yes you can print it off course. I think it is a cool idea to keep it the same size as a MD cover :) hopefully the pictures and text won´t be too small.
