Created in collaboration with author Kurt Kalata, A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games is an ambitious project that aims to cover the entire history of Japanese role-playing games from 1982 to 2020. From Dragon Quest to Final Fantasy , from Megami Tensei to Pokémon , A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games explores the expansive history of Japanese role-playing games (JRPGs), beginning on 8-bit microcomputers, and following them all the way up to the heavy hitters of the modern era. As well as reviews of over 600 games, covering a wide range of sub-genres, including strategy RPGs like Fire Emblem , Rogue-likes such as Mystery Dungeon , and first-person dungeon crawlers like Etrian Odyssey , A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games includes articles on the genre, its music and art. Overall, the book weighs in at over 370,000 words and contains contributions from a wide selection of fans and journalists, combining to create the ultimate coffee table book on Japanese role-playing games.

    Great seller. Packaging and shipping time were both above average. Game case arrived with a very tiny dent (looked like the packaging had a rough time in transit), but was otherwise just as described. Seller used a bubble mailer and an additional layer of bubble wrap around the game. This is a step up from what I normally get from retailers, but may not be enough to spare slight damage if USPS handles their part poorly.

    The game was packed very well and exactly as described. Shipping was very fast. The seller even included a plastic protective case around the box that I wasn't expecting! Great seller! Would definitely do business again!
