Does anyone know where you can buy or download replacement games instruction booklets as I have lost some of mine and replacements would be of a great help to me.
Thanks

No, it was free. Most publishers will do this because it gives them good press and it's good customer service.

Most games publishers will try to help you out if you email them. I once bought a 2nd hand copy of Evolution for the Dreamcast (Ubisoft) without instructions, and when I emailed support at Ubisoft asking where I could get a replacement they emailed back within 24 hours saying that they no longer had any spare copies but would a photocopy be acceptable. I mailed back saying yes and they posted me a copy 1st class the next day.

There are also websites out there with complete instruction manuals for most formats in the form of webpages which you can copy to word and print off, cheatcc.com is one of them which has a lot of N64 and PSX manuals online sent in by gamers.
