ACTION52 INSTRUCTION BOOKLET (C) COPYRIGHT 1991 ACTIVE ENTERPRISES LTD. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ASCII Manual made by Martin Nielsen (aka Acey), January 1997. Worst manual I've ever seen!!! Completely unuseful and not even worth the paper its written on, but hey it has go to match the games doesent it? ;) Note: the manual is written in 7 different languages, however i will only type in the english part. Although if it is requested that I type in the rest i'll probably do that. Also, I havent included the controller info, because its so damn easy to figure out that I dont wanna waste my time by typing it. Oh yeah, the typos are not mine (man there's a lot), blame the guy who wrote the manual in the first place. This manual was found at NES WORLD (http://www.internet1.net/~nesworld).
