How hard is it and how can I proceed to do so... I can't decide if I want to start looking for manuals or not. Once I start, I don't stop ...

To do properly, tougher than you'd think. Even with a good quality PDF file you'd most likely still need to rearrange the pages for printing, plus you'd have to print double-sided. Personally, I wouldn't really recommend it, especially when you can usually find standalone manuals for reasonable prices.

But there are always manuals that don't exsist, like:

- Legend of Zelda Paraller worlds (OK this was bought from ebay).
- Super Mario World 2+: Yoshi's Island 2 (Starting to try to do this in near future)
- Super Mario World 2+2: Yoshi's Island 3  (Starting to try to do this too in near future)

Some Japanese Super Famicom manuals doesn't exist, like Tiny Toon Adventures Dotabata Daiundoukai for instance.

Thanks for sharing ... manuals are usually easy to find if you give it time. Ebay is such a scam when it comes to manuals that I'm forced to search everywhere else for them. I see some go for 15 to 50$ (+ 20 shipping + 15% customs) for common titles so it's really a bummer.
