    On steam when you click on a game in your library, if you look over to the right, there is a LINKS in all bold and blue text, sometimes there will be a link called manual. If it does, the game will have a manual in PDF format. Though sometimes the manual is just the controls for the game.

    I miss them but nowadays you can just find anything on the internet. I do miss my manuals for my old games.

    It can be hard to find manuals online and even harder to find some strategy guides online as well.

    I would always read them on the pooper to pass time and learn more about the game.

    Yakuza 3 has a digital manual. Still a physical one would have been great.

    The manual I love the most is the NES Metal Gear manual, because of the image of Snake on page 5. He's sexy :3

    I am not sure if you guys and girls are aware but I came across old game Manuel’s from torrent sites. As for magazines try retro mags really good selection, and if you find the torrent that’s complete for the year 2021 it’s really impressive.

    One nice thing about manuals is that they can help protect the disc. I've noticed during S&H that sometimes disc will pop out of their holder, which could cause damage. If there was a manual, it would help provide extra cushioning. Also, the Switch does not appear to have physical or digital manuals. Although certain games do come with a physical manual.
