It's not a doujin, actually. They were both official manga when the game came out.

As far as I know, the only "doujinshi" that came out for Terranigma was stationary sheets (I have two of them

)

@EP: A doujinshi is a fan-made comic. They can range from a gag comic to hardcore porn. They're usually short (20-30 pages at most, unless it's a higher-end doujin circle who write huge stories) and only sold at Comiket, Japan's comic convention. You can find them at places like Book Off used (most of the time, they'll be read and then brought to used book stores for money, then resold. I have a few, and they're all in super amazing condition for being used.)

Well to an extent, you can find them at any Anime convention, but Comiket is pretty much the only event dedicated to it.

True enough. Comiket is the one that a huge chunk of doujin gets distributed at, though things like Reitaisai get Touhou doujin (and other doujin goods) distributed at it as well.
