Sounds like a good reference for my screenplay.

I preordered this thing months ago. I can't believe it comes out today. I should have mine delivered within the next day or two. Very excited to pour over it.

I ordered mine a couple months back from Amazon and it just gotdelivered earlier this morning. I can't wait to get home and read it.

Pre-ordered it last night since it was still on Amazon with a huge discount :D cant wait to get it Friday, hope the mail person doesn't get lost!

Just got mine in the mail.

It's... cool enough, I suppose. 1/4 of it is dedicated solely to Skyward Sword, 1/4 is dedicated to the manga, 1/4 is dedicated to cataloging how the art style has evolved over the past 25 years, 1/4 is the Hyrule Timeline.

I mean, it's not disappointing per se, and I really appreciate all of the art in it, but I would have really liked to have seen more background material--more background on how the games were made and conceived, and things like that. You know, more nonfiction elements.

Oh: and the thing is huge. 12 inches wide, 18 inches long.
