From 1985-89 Wanpakku Comics was a major producer of #Nintendo manga & game guides. While much of the manga was later released in volumes, they closed & the last issues can only be found in the original monthlies
It was requested I scan the #Mario chapters. May 1988: archive.org/details/zine...

Also, if a game historian is like a bard, then I'm like a bruiser: I simply scan. I don't know things so you can absolutely help me out by making sure I have the correct information. Japanese & English names, character names, tagging info, etc
