Hey all,
A couple of days ago I finished making this manual. I miss and love making these for the switch so I hope you enjoy.
I loved looking back at the older one and using that to inspire some styling and looks for the one I made, while also including new bits and looks for the remastered 🙂 I even have some compare pictures which I think is quite cute!

That is awesome, great job.
I see you got the Australian version of Metroid Prime on the Gamecube.
Damn son! Looks amazing. Just finished the game yesterday. So good!
I miss reading through the manuals while my mom or grandma were driving me home from the video game store 😔
That’s looks awesome, congrats.
Do you still have the file that you used? I would love to print myself one too
Man I miss when games came with manuals. Would be so awesome to open the case and find this inside! Great work!!

I realized how much I miss game manuals when I opened up prime for GameCube and saw the manual and the confidential Metroid research insert that was an ad for fusion. Really cool.
Nice!
Question from a graphic designer: How on earth did you print this?! Like what paper stock and printer settings?
Absolutely amazing!! Great work, I actually miss manuals nowadays… Bought my Metroid Prime copy yesterday, and would have love finding this manual inside the box..
I wish it was real 🥹
How did you make it? I wanna make my own for some other games
Nice job. Though game makers should still feature at least a formal PDF digital manual (and maybe even a physical counterpart that can be ordered for a fee).
With a few scant exceptions, I can’t find any for this generation.
Is that an alternate dimension gamecube case?
So you made other manual like this one ?
If it doesn’t come with a manual what is the clamps for?
Why though
This is awesome!

The Hero we didnt deserves but needed
I never in my life have used a game manual so then not coming with them nowadays really doesn’t bother me
Now do Elden Ring
This awesome. My brother runs a print shop. Any chance you’d share the file? =D I’d do the same thing, put my switch copy with my original Gamecube copy!
No more manuals is like top 5 reasons why gaming isn’t as good as it used to be.

I remember reading and loving this manual for the GC. The chozo lore section was great
Nice! I really miss game manuals and music liner notes
Cool now I want one
Dang that’s awesome! Wish Nintendo would still make these…
I feel like if you’re gonna post something like this, we need a link where we can download and print one out ourselves.
Awesome
Played, failed to complete ‘Cube version of this. Auto aim system was unique at the time me thinks, doubtless inspired Gears’. Did anyone play the sequel?
something bout the smell of a game manual driving home from the store…. missing it always
That’s nice
You do the Odyssey/BOTW ones etc? Either way, these are incredible!!!
Before phones, a game manual was my go to for toilet reading material
