Unfortunately, no Google or B&N match on this one

The NES is one of the most iconic video game systems of all time, and is credited with 'saving' the American video games industry in the early 80s when it looked likely to collapse.

The NES Encyclopedia is the first ever complete reference guide to every game released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo's first industry-defining video game system. As well as covering all 714 officially licensed NES games, the book also includes more than 160 unlicensed games released during its lifespan, giving for the first time a definitive history of this important console's full library. Written by a retro gaming expert with 30 years of gaming experience and a penchant for bad jokes, the NES Encyclopedia promises to be both informative and entertaining.

The NES continues to enjoy a strong cult following among Nintendo fans and gamers in general with wide varieties of officially licensed merchandise proving ever popular: both for older fans who remember it the first time around, and younger gamers discovering the system for the first time through Nintendo's regular re-releases of its older games.

Nintendo's most recent console, the Nintendo Switch, is the fastest selling video game console of all time in the United States and Japan. Nintendo will be launching a variety of classic NES games for download on the system later in 2018, meaning a new audience of gamers is due to discover the NES for the first time.

The Kindle edition seems to have a formatting problem. Some of the sentences are on top of each other. I'm using the Kindle app for the iPad.

I bet it doesn't have every game... Action 52 Cheetahmen, for example.
That's not an officially licensed game.

I bet you can find this list somewhere on the web. Perhaps that's probably what they did, pulled the info, compiled it and made an electronic book of it.

That's how many non fictions books work, actually. The value is in the curation. Whether this book did it well, I have no idea.
