Zack and Wiki: Tips, Tricks, and Interviews from our Reviewer’s Guide

November 5th, 2007 Seth Killian

Capcom has started sending out some really cool paper guides alongside games we send to the press for review. They aren’t quite Prima-style guides, but they’re about 100x more fun than most instruction manuals, and offer more detailed (and more fun) pointers on how to use the Wii-mote in game, walk-throughs for a few puzzles (there’s your spoiler warning), and an interview with the producer Takeshita-san. Anyway it’s filled with good info and great art, so we thought we’d share. Whee!
