The ultimate history of video games is a fantastic read. Highly recommended.

I have the Arcade Mania and the SuperCade. The first is a must read before visiting Japan, the second is a nice made book with lots of nice visuals and information about the key games until, the cover says it, 1984

  I just bought some books from Amazon UK:

Supercade: A Visual History of the Videogame Age 1971-1984

The Ultimate History of Video Games

Guinness World Records Gamer's Edition 2010

Rogue Leaders: The Story of Lucasarts

Arcade Mania: The Turbo-Charged World of Japan's Game Centers

Vintage Games: An Insider Look at the History of Grand Theft Auto, Super Mario, and the Most Influential Games of All Time: An Insider Look at the ... and the Most Influential Games of All Time

and a DVD of The King of Kong, for only GBP 4 (I lost the original copy of my backup somehow  )

So I have will have some nice stuff to read soon, but I saw in the replies above some other must have books. Unfortunately they were not in the listings of Amazon UK.

I also have Arcade Mania, it's a short book but very fun to read. The utlimate History of Video Games is also really great!

haha, I believe that I got my PDF from the same post on BYOAC a few years ago. It is a must have for every DK owner.

I just finished reading the Ultimate History of Video Games, it was nice to read with some great stories in it which I wont spoil here, although sometimes it was a bit too corporate focussed; with lawyers, lawsuites, profits, turnover and CEO's.

I am wondering if ArcadeFever is a nice book

for me, arcade fever is the best books of them all. i'm reading this over and over again. funny texts, nice timeline and great photos. i love it

I agree, this review convinced me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0KrS6R_HM8   What a joker.

Edit: despite this terrible review I just ordered Arcade Fever.

I also thought that, by reading 2 reviews of it on I think it was bol.com
