"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..

It was quite an achievement, I agree.
It's all true though.
IF you buy the game at any time you should get the OOT disk as well.

Wooo! I claimed Zelda for GAD, so I'm assuming I'll get it, yes?

In Japan, people who Pre-ordered Zelda WW got this demo disk in the post around three weeks before the gme release. Everyone else who buys a Japanese copy of the game gets the demo disk in the box when they buy it.
I presume that's what happened in America as well, although I am not sure.
So there's no need to worry that if you don't pre-order, you won't get you demo disk. Hopefully.
