Move.png It has been suggested that this article should be moved to Strategy guides.
The reason given for the move is: Prima isn't just the only strategy guide publisher in the Smash series. There are several others that can all be added to one specific page for strategy guides. The paragraph in the "In the Super Smash Bros. series" section on this page can be placed on the newly created article. There's really no need for Prima to have an article of it's own. (Discuss)

Prima Games, a division of Random House, is the largest publishing company of video game strategy guides in the United States of America and Europe. The company is an imprint of the Random House Information Group, based in Roseville, California. Prima are renowned for creating Official Strategy Guides for video games, including the Super Smash Bros. series.

In the Super Smash Bros. series

Prima Games' Official Strategy Guide for Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Prima Games are responsible for the creation of the Official Strategy Guide for Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Super Smash Bros. 4. These books go into detail of strategies, character biographies, stage information and other miscellaneous pieces of Smash Bros.-related information, but are also fairly infamous for featuring noticeable mistakes, such as a false claim that Ike's Quick Draw can be canceled. Prima Games' Super Smash Bros. Brawl Official Strategy Guide is also mocked for stating that Meta Knight as a playable character, currently reigning at the top of the tier list in Brawl, is on par with Ganondorf, the character at the bottom of said tier list, after they were both rated 6/10.
