A complete archive of dreams on disk!


Launched in 1986 as an add-on for the Famicom, the Family Computer Disk System brought a new era of gaming to Japanese homes. With its affordable disk cards and convenient rewrite service available for a single coin, it offered players a revolutionary way to enjoy more games—and led to timeless classics like The Legend of Zelda and Metroid.


This book offers a comprehensive guide to every Disk System title, complete with gameplay tips, hidden tricks, and behind-the-scenes details. It also covers:


  • Peripheral hardware for the Disk System

  • Period advertisements that captured the spirit of the era

  • Unreleased games that were sadly cancelled before launch


With charming spot illustrations by RIKI, this volume is both a nostalgic tribute and an informative collector’s reference.
