Reports are coming in from all over the place that the new Famitsu Weekly reveals a huge bonus for Japanese gamers who preorder The Legend of Zelda: Kaze no Takuto.

The first people to preorder will receive a bonus disc that contains The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the never before released Ura-Zelda, and information and/or videos of F-Zero GC and Biohazard 4.

It is currently unknown whether Ocarina of Time has been upgraded at all to take advantage of the GameCube hardware, but this is the full and complete game. Ura-Zelda is the expansion pack for OoT that was in development for the 64 Disk Drive, but was never released. It is essentially a remix with new dungeons and possibly other new content.

Preorders for The Legend of Zelda: Kaze no Takuto begin on November 28 in Japan. Naturally, supplies of the bonus disc are included. No word on whether Nintendo of America will have a similar deal when the game is released here early next year.

Oh God they better have this disk with the European release or I will not be happy.

Ha if they do give us Europeans a raw deal, then just import it from the USA. I was really hoping that OoT was being remade, most thought it to be a rumour, but it is obviously not.

I wouldn't hold your breath. If it includes a previously unreleased game, it probably hasn't been translated, a piece of work I doubt they'll bother with for a giveaway.

This makes me question wether OOT will be re-made for the GC after all..

It's great news... as long as it follows suit over here, if it doesnt there will be some really hacked off hardcore Zelda fans over here (including myself) especially if the graphics and everything are redone, However much I love and praise Nintendo for their brilliant contributions to the gaming industry they can't just go around giving Europe a raw deal (well technically they can but they shouldnt) it's just not on!

I bet we will most probably get p!ssed on once again tho and find that the disc will be Jp exclusive, grr! jus annoys me that we allways get a raw deal, in fact it annoys me so much that I'm gonna post a topic on it, in the mean time (as SR so correctly stated) keep shaking those fists towards the land of the rising sun, heh maybe they'll chuck a few of the discs at us in retaliation, hmm just maybe...

This is why, no matter how many times they might disappoint me, I love Nintendo.

My bet is that they won't, seeing as they love to fleece the Europeans every chance they get, but fingers crossed.
