Book #1: Double Trouble
Nintendo gamebooks based on video games created by Nintendo. The gamebooks feature characters and settings from the Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda franchises, in two series, Nintendo Adventure Books and You Decide on the Adventure.
The Nintendo Adventure Book series of 12 books was created by Russell Ginns, author of the Samantha Spinner series. It was published from 1991 to 1992 by Simon and Schuster in the United States and Archway Books and Mammoth Books in the United Kingdom.[1] They are formatted like the popular Choose Your Own Adventure books, where the story progresses with the reader's decisions. Ten of the books are about the adventures of the Mario brothers in the Mushroom Kingdom and are based primarily on the Valiant comics published for the Nintendo Comics System imprint. Books nine and ten are about Link from The Legend of Zelda series.[2]
Each book is 121 pages long, containing various puzzles such as mazes and word searches.[3] The inventory system has the player collects items used to solve the puzzles, with a scoring system on a scale at the end of the book. There is one victorious ending and multiple unsuccessful (often lethal to the characters involved) endings which end by saying Game Over.
Some of the books were re-released as a promotion for Pringles.[4]
The You Decide on the Adventure series has four gamebooks published by Scholastic from 2001 to 2002. All four were written by Craig Wessel, based on Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Color games.
