won thi on ebay a short while ago, arrived today, according to the seller description it is very rare..
here is what the description says "This auction includes an original, vintage Nintendo Zelda Story Book. This is the internal NMI copy. NMI is Nintendo Merchandising Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of Nintendo. Used internally at the company, this was never intended for retail sale. This was obtained directly from a former Nintendo employee and has never been offered before this listing. Used internally within the company, this example is very rare. If you were looking to upgrade the piece in your collection or if you were simply looking for the best example out there, look no further. In mint condition, perfect addition to any collection with amazing display ability." here is a picture of the sale - Posted Image
here is a picture/scan of the book itself & close up of label - Posted Image Posted Image
about NMI realy bad handwriting, i know. - Posted Image
so how rare is it do you think? do you like it at all? any info on it cos i got no idea, i know basics about it but thats it.
cheers & thanks for looking.

I have that book packed away somewhere. Sadly it's falling apart from being read so much. XD I dunno how rare it is, but I loved it.

Look up that book on other sites, and compare that to what you paid. If you paid a lot more than I guess it did make a value difference because you shelled out more for it. XD
