Scans of A Link to the Past Manga by Noboru Sakaoka and Mario-kun by Hiroshi Takase

This has never been online before. I just 2400dpi scanned & uploaded this 8 page Zelda: Link to the Past 神々のトライフォース manga by Noboru Sakaoka 坂丘のぼる from Shogaku Ninensei, February 1992. Find it here.

This is probably my favorite panel from it:

I have also uploaded 1200dpi RAWS for the Mario (Mario-kun) comic and content (including a cool little pyramid cut-out) by Hiroshi Takase that was in this issue. You can find the zip for that download here.

1200dpi Scans of a Short Nintendo Art Publication

I scanned & uploaded this short little “Nintendo the Official Magazine Presents The Best Videogame Artwork Of All Time!” publication at 1200dpi. It’s where I found the Zelda: Minish Cap artwork. There’s a couple good pieces in it from FFV, Mario, Kirby, etc. Enjoy! https://archive.org/details/nintendo_ntom_tbvaoat/mode/2up

Thanks to Ian I now know this was a free appendix to one of the early issues of the UK version of Nintendo Power.
