"Zelda disc rumours"

There were rumours that the Zelda disc would be for sale exclusive to a certain retailer farily soon.

Well I don't know if this is going to be the case, but that retailer is giving away that disc for free with every GameCube.

The cover has a barcode and is in a purple GameCube game case. Has "Promotional use only" or something similar in big letters on it, and also claims not to be for resale.

So whether another cover will be printed for ones to be sold seperately or not, I don't know. Would be interesting though.

Intresting.. do you have any idea at what sort of price this retailer would be selling them.

I got mine free ^_^, but it would be intresting to see how much I've saved.

2 weeks ago i saw one being bid on at e-bay and it had reached £40!! :O

I have no idea what they are fetching on e-bay right now as i havnt looked lately, if this disk was sold by G*** (for example) then they would want at least £19.99 for it... thats the minimum im guessing at anyway.

Out of curiosity i just checked ebay out and wow... theres another Zelda collection disk there selling for £37 at this moment (it runs out in 35 mins so check this URL if you really want this disk and are prepared to spend ludicrous amounts of ca$h for it lol...

There limited deal yesterday made me wish I didn't have a GameCube. Easily the best bundle I've ever seen.

The current version in the shops, as I stated, is for promotional use only. It scans at 0.00 - basically free and I'm therefore assuming the barcode is for keeping a check on stock levels only.

You mean the new Nintendo deal announced last month that as of December 1st single Gamecube consoles now come bundled with the special Zelda collectors disc.

In all stores.

i got mine for 20 quid, i saw one on ebay gave a bid, then e-mailed the bloke and said "i'll give ya 20 quid for the disk right here and now" and the bloke said OK then, thinking it was a good deal. cheap as chips.

Cheap????

I got mine for 4500 stars.

I have none...

I hate Ninty when they do stuff like this...
