Into the Mushroom Kingdom ( Merio Encyclopedia)

Yes, "Into the Mushroom Kingdom" is a book of sorts I've been writing for a little while and basically is an A-Z Guide of all objects, power-ups, characters and enemies from every Mario game. Each object has a image(s) and a detailed description of what game it comes from, what it does etc.

I noticed there aren't any Mario Encyclopedias made by Nintendo or by dedicated fans of the series, so I started work on this myself. t will probably be split into two volumes; the one I'm writing now and one that has an article on each game and the different lands of the Mushroom Kingdom.

I'll upload screenshots and maybe a few excerpts soon, but for now, you'll have to bear with me.

How you can help (and get credited):
- I need clear screenshots of different things from time to time of objects and enemies from some games. Google doesn't always have what you want you know, so if I post a list of images I need, if anyone can get them through emulators that take clear screenshots feel free to do so. If they are good quality then they'll get added. So far Mario Wikia is my main source for material at the moment...

More info soon...

No, it will be a printed book once it is finished. I'm developing it currently in Microsoft Word and Blurb.

Thanks Kevsoft, hopefully I can finish it and give the Mario fan-base something special.

How nobody managed to notice that the topic says "Merio"?

Why a printed book? The only reason that I'd make a printed book is to sell it. If that's the case, be sure to ask permission from Nintendo. Anything that I'd like everyone to see I make it online.

mErio? :lol:

Мерио. Измерь их всех!
Merio. Measure them all!

Мерить, Измерить - is a "to measure" verb.

I'm glad someone finally noticed it said Merio. It was done on purpose, since people seem to use the reference of Merio and Weegee.
