"Prompting a collective sigh of relief rather than full, lager-fuelled, throwing-chairs-out-of-windows excitement, Nintendo of Europe confirmed that a bonus disc will release with Zelda: The Wind Waker in Europe, as it has in Japan and will in the US.
Doubtless aware that anything to the contrary would have been met with Continent-wide riots, NoE MD David Gosen confirmed that the extra disc was planned at the GBA SP press conference earlier this week.

Characteristically skirting specifics ahead of an official announcement, Gosen stated that NoE had yet to decide what it planned to do with "our disc". Backing this up, European product manager Marko Hein told us: "Of course we know that it's a very exciting opportunity to have this demo disc, so were playing around with it and have very exciting plans, which we'll announce at a later date."

While the fine art of double-speak kept a tight lid on further details, it seems almost certain that Ocarina of Time and Ura Zelda will be released here, since the same is happening in the US, with the only grey area remaining exactly which demos NoE wishes to include.

As ever, we'll keep you fully up to date on all developments. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker releases in Europe on May 3."

Yes, that's another worry out the way, if only we had a release date for ac..

The Bonus Disk contains the entire of OoC, and the "MasterQuest Edition", Ura Zelda, which is the same game, but with redesigned dungeans, puzzles moved around, etc. Apparrently, it's a little harder, and designed to give fresh life in the game if you've already completed the original.

Unfortunately, NOE haven't said how they're going to distribute the disk. They may well sell it seperately, or give it away under a different offer. Even if they do use the pre-order method, there's still no guarantee that a GAD prize will get it - SR may not be included in the scheme, and they may only give the disk to those with a £10 deposit on a certain date, and so on.

I'm not all that sure about these free things that you get, but i've heard about OOT. So if this is true, do you get the whole of OOT? If you do, that would be so cool. I've just claimed it as a GAD aswell, so it will be like getting 2 games for free :D
