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.

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.

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