Prima Games
Prima Games is the largest third-party publisher of video game strategy guides in the US. It is a division of Random House. Since their foundation in the mid 1990s, Prima has created guides for over 1400 titles. The company was selected by Nintendo to provide the official strategy guides for their games, including The Legend of Zelda series (as of Phantom Hourglass), after Nintendo Power ceased publication in 2007.
In addition to their standard guides, called "Premiere Editions," Prima has released collector's edition guides for most of the newer Zelda games, starting with Twilight Princess. These guides are known for their hardcovers, gilded pages and bonus items such as maps and bookmarks. On November 26, 2013, Prima will release a limited edition box set celebrating the legacy of the series. It includes 6 collector's edition guides spanning all the Zelda releases from Twilight Princess through The Wind Waker HD, along with a Treasure Chest book holder, a gilded two-sided bookmark and a certificate of authenticity signed by Eiji Aonuma. This is the first and only time Prima releases an Template:OOT3D collector's edition guide; it is available exclusively in this box set. The set also includes a revised and expanded Skyward Sword guide with over 100 pages of new content.
