We Need Some Mario and Sonic Art Books

I don't own a great deal of them, but I do enjoy looking through video game art books. The Mega Man/Mega Man X Official Complete Works are without question some of the best books I own. Having easy access to Mega Man artwork is a dream come true. So why haven't Sonic and Mario, two of the biggest faces in gaming been given similar art book treatment?

Look, I already know there's a ton of art work for Sonic and Mario ranging from rough sketches to finished pictures. Sure, you can view it all on the net, but wouldn't it be nice to have all that art in one nice sized book? If anyone in gaming deserves complete works game art books, it's the world's fastest hedgehog and the most popular plumber. Since Mario is nearly 30 years old and Sonic is 20 years old, the amount of artwork for each book could easily amount to two of largest video game art books to date.
