As reported by Nintendo Insider, a listing on Amazon UK which has now been pulled - although you can see a cached version here - shows the official hardcover guide and comes complete with in depth info on what's to come. You didn't have plans other than playing Switchor Wii U for the rest of the year, did you? Here's the full listing.

So yes, you read that right. Inside that "premium hardcover" is a guide to 120 Shrine Mini Dungeons and 900 Korok Seed puzzles. Is 900 of anything too much? I'm going to say no... This is just further proof that Breath of the Wild is going to be absolutely enormous and while it's one of only a handful of launch titles, it's going to be a serious undertaking. The book itself will be out on the same day as the game on March 3. Not long to go now, folks...
