This book was very very helpful during my journey to save Princess Zelda. It contains a fold-out poster, too. I cannot fully describe all of the information that helped me out during the game! Buy this if you need Zelda help for the N64 or Gamecube version!!

I didn't buy it from amazon, but recieved it from my older brother. (Zelda tradition I guess?) The guide is very detailed, and even has a little writing from Miyamato himself, the creator of Zelda and other Nintendo titles (like Mario)

Every writing of the guide is as of it was ancient Hylian scrolls depicting Links adventure, so it made it all the better to own it, let alone the fact it tells you EVERYTHING in the game. From tips to secret grotto locations to boss help, it's all here. I'm glad I own it as a hand me down, because I feel like I own one of the first copies. Anyway, this is a must have for anyone who is a Zelda fan, or even newcomers to the series.

Ounce upon a legend...

We had both the Nintendo and the Prima guide for this game. According to my son, this is the better book if you just want the hints and don't want the guide to spoil the game for you. Also, he said that this guide has better pictures.
