Not as cool as the EarthBound guide but if you change the last part of the link (the file name) to one of the below entries, you can get a PDF of the instructions manual for the game. Seems like it's only for games on Virtual Console.

Found these codes on a ROM site.

CLV-P-SAAAE = Super Mario World
CLV-P-SAABE = F-Zero
CLV-P-SAAEE = Legend of Zelda, The - A Link to the Past
CLV-P-SAAFE = Super Mario Kart
CLV-P-SAAHE = Super Metroid
CLV-P-SAAJE = EarthBound
CLV-P-SAAKE = Kirby's Dream Course
CLV-P-SAALE = Donkey Kong Country
CLV-P-SAAQE = Kirby Super Star
CLV-P-SAAXE = Super Punch-Out!!
CLV-P-SABCE = Mega Man X
CLV-P-SABDE = Super Ghouls'n Ghosts
CLV-P-SABHE = Street Fighter II Turbo
CLV-P-SABQE = Super Mario RPG - Legend of the Seven Stars
CLV-P-SABRE = Secret of Mana
CLV-P-SABTE = Final Fantasy III
CLV-P-SACBE = Super Castlevania IV
CLV-P-SACCE = Contra III - The Alien Wars
CLV-P-SADGE = Star Fox
CLV-P-SADJE = Super Mario World 2 - Yoshi's Island

Quote from voodoobrew :
I can't scratch and sniff a PDF though
You can, it just won't smell like much. If it starts to smell like ozone, though, you might want to have your monitor/phone/tablet checked by a professional.

I remember going insane in 1995 trying to get the Gutsy Bat. Page 114 says the Kraken drops it which is a one-time boss. Years later when the Internet came around I learned it's actually the Bionic Kraken that drops it which is a common enemy in the final area.

Gdi Nintendo, never change.

Pretty sure this has existed for years but nice reminder for new people. Played through the game a few years ago again and it still holds up. Quite possibly the first RPG I farmed exp in before it was even a term. Don't make many like this anymore!
Yeah, this is part of the documentation from the SNES Mini Classic. They released PDFs of all the games on that thing online.
