We can get you through customs, but you'll have to handle the Famicom Disk System yourself. 

A companion to Legends of Localization Book 1: The Legend of Zelda, the Passport to the Legend of Zelda is packed with all the information you need to experience the Japanese version of Zelda for yourself: character charts, basic grammar rules, and a full dictionary of every word in the game.

This Passport also contains a tutorial on how to explore the Japanese side of the Internet without actually knowing Japanese, as well as a guide on sights and sounds to look for when playing the Japanese version of the game!

If you've ever wanted to dabble in learning basic Japanese but have been too scared, let this simple guide lead the way. In fact, Clyde "Tomato" Mandelin designed it to mimic his own first forays into the Japanese language years ago!

This booklet ships all over the world – check our shipping page for more details.

Miles W. ★★★★★

The Famicom Disk System breakdown alone was worth it, since I never understood how the save data actually worked on those old disks. It pairs perfectly with the first book without just repeating the same maps and screenshots.

Ava Y. ★★★★★

I grabbed this after finishing the first localization book, and the customs section had me laughing more than I expected. The Famicom Disk System coverage is thinner than I'd like, but the side-by-side text comparisons are genuinely fascinating.

Victoria X. ★★★★★

The Famicom Disk System section alone made the whole purchase worth it—so many fascinating details I never knew. A perfect companion if you already own Book 1.
