In the following pages you will find every inch of the hottest game series mapped out, labeled and detailed with tips and strategies. You'll see what routes lead to treasure and danger. When there's a choice of direction to take, you can make an informed decision. Maybe your character is running out of energy: take a look at the map for the closest refill. Of course, every game map offers different benefits. In an adventure like The Legend of Zelda you'll learn where to burn trees and collect Hearts. In action games such as Mega Man you'll see how far it is to the end of the stage. Some maps reveal mazes and towns while others help lead you through a complex story. And the maps are as varied as the different games themselves, from sprawling overhead views of complete worlds to linear maps that uncover where the baddest bosses are lurking ahead. If you've ever drawn your awn game maps, you know how important it is to be accurate. You also know how hard it can be, and how much time it takes, and that's just using paper and pencil. Most of the maps in the NES Game Atlas are created by fitting hundreds of screen shots together with intricate precision, a process that takes weeks of painstaking work. Other maps are illustrated, and that takes even more work, because the artist has to draw every element in the game and then triple check to make sure nothing is left out. With help like this, you'll never get lost. The games chosen for the first Player's Guide series book are the most popular in history. Together they have sold more than 50 million copies! Many of these maps were reviewed in Nintendo Power, but now, for the first time, the entire games are shown from start to finish, That's powerful coverage you can’t get anywhere else. This book is just one in a series of in-depth guides on the hottest video games, brought to you by the same pros who create Nintendo Power.
