It's the hottest topic in our Community forums - will the incredible Zelda Collector's Edition (which can't be purchased on its own) be available in our Stars Catalogue?

And the answer is: yes. You're all crying out for the opportunity to swap your Stars for this one-of-a-kind collection - so that's exactly what we're giving you. As of December 1st and while stocks last, you can redeem 4500 Stars for a magical Nintendo GameCube disc featuring four of Link's magnificent adventures - plus a demo of a fifth:

The Legend of Zelda
The NES classic on your Nintendo GameCube - in its entirety.

The Legend of Zelda II: Link's Adventure
The complete side-scrolling NES sequel - chattier, but no less thrilling.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Best game of all time? Judge for yourself - the entire N64 masterpiece.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
In all its glory: the second N64 adventure, a tale of moons, masks and magic.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (demo)
A one-level demo of Link's latest and greatest epic on Nintendo GameCube.

Can't wait for 1st December? From today, the Zelda Collector's Edition is also packed into the Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Special Edition Pak, along with a Nintendo GameCube and copy of Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.

So soon there'll be more than one way to get hold of the exclusive Zelda Collector's Edition, and relive Link's 16-year journey from top-down 2D pig-basher to eye-popping 3D toon-shaded swashbuckler. Start saving those Stars!

But you seemed to miss my GTA point.

GTA double pack would be a good experience for the X-box owners.

But it is project Gotham 2, Amped 2, Rainbow six 3 etc... that you should be getting excited about from an X-boxer's point of view.



I mean I'm hardly harcking on about how great the Zelda disc is, I've done a post that tells us Ninty's how to get hold of it but in near enough every other topic I've replied to in this forum has been me declaring how great Mario Kart is.

that's a game to get excited about.

Of course I can...

What's the point in getting excited over GTA: Double pack they're old games.

Answer: I collect GTA games... well fine but if you collect GTA games why don't you get them all on the PS2?

What's the point in getting over excited about the free Zelda 4 game disc.

Answer: It contains a history of Zelda, it's free and as a Zelda collector it will fit nicely into my collection.

Where's the contradiction?


If I was getting over excited about the Mario Advance series then... and only then... would I understand your hypocritical accusations.

This has nothing to do with wanting to play old games.

I'm not bothered about the fact that you are a Zelda fan, I am doing the same with the old Resident Evil games for the Cube. Its the fact you said something which you have contradicted completely. You can't make that post out to be anything than what it says.

I'm a massive Zelda fan. A big one. I have the bloody CDi Zelda games and the original gold Zelda titles signed by Miyamoto. In fact all the games in this pack I ALREADY HAVE! And like the Master Quest disc with Wind Waker which I just had to have I will not even play it... bar to watch the history of Zelda bit. Why? Because I'm a bit of a collector... I like getting Zelda titles just so I can say I have them and put it amongst my collection. A bit sad perhaps but that is besides the point... this is why I have to get the game... not because I want to enjoy a great gaming experience because I won't. I tried going back to Ocarina of Time after Wind waker and couldn't because Wind Waker offered far more in controls than OOT could ever do. So perhaps know why I want the disc before accusing me of being hypocritical.

But it wasn't an essay... it was a straight quote. I didn't write anything around it bar the source...

So all it was, was a copied page from one site pasted here with the source at the top indicating it wasn't mine.

www.cube-europe.com. They quote from Nintendo all the time and just put the source at the foot of the page... they don't put it in quotation marks.

Don't try and back track over what you said. It suited your argument when you wanted it to.

Idiot.

I'm willing to take your word for it. As for the quotation, it is standard pratice to put it in quotation marks in essays of any sort.
