"Super Mario Series for Piano" by Alfred, worth it?

[Lemming16]

Hi guys. I am thinking 'bout buying this "Super Mario Series for Piano" book (Alfred) . Do you guys think its worth it? having already the music sheets from NinSheetMusic? Thanks in advance!.

Yes, easily, as they are professionally arranged pieces coming directly from Nintendo. The book is high quality, you won't be disappointed.

I'd only recommend the intermediate version, though. Same with the Zelda songbook-they're both fantastic.

same thing, though don't plan on learning hyrule field if you get zelda, the last couple pages are RIDICULOUSLY hard

Hi everyone, thanks a lot for your answers!, as you guys recommended, it just ordered it , it is the intermediate version, even though i'm learning, i decided i should learn them the "real" way. I didn't ordered the Zelda one, since most of the songs i like of Zelda, are only the classical ones.

Now i just have to pray so it arrives (I live in Mexico (therefore my bad english), and shippings takes a long time, and sometimes they don't even get to its destination).

Lol, it's not really worth it. Most of the arrangements are equal or lesser in quality to those on the site, and the page binding is absolutely terrible. Waste of money.

[SlowPokemon]

Actually, the arrangements are quite excellent.

At least in the Zelda one. I guess that's largely opinion... and hand size.

Yeah I was disappointed in the Zelda one because many were unplayable or ridiculously hard. But I love the Mario one.

Maybe I should have got the Mario one then.

Mhm, the Zelda one has too many remixes of the main theme as well as many practically unplayable arrangements

They got desperate for music. They should have chosen other songs like Kokiri Village or more Phantom Hourglass things.
