and a Zelda documentary?
*head explodes*
This BETTER be sold separately... if it turns out to actually exist... and it better come out in Australia... which it probably wouldnt... aww... now im all sad and stuff... :\
Post by: DRJ on September 09, 2003, 04:56:19 PM
Hopefully BestBuy or Gamestop will sell them seperately, and of course there is always ebay. Now all they have to do is make a Mario compilation and I will be set.

i just dont understand what nintendo is planning to do with four swords and tetras trackers. a package deal like this would be the best way to put the games out.

Oh and the server thing has been really pissing me off too. I have cable and can just barely get on here.
It does sadden me since I've been coming here for like over 3 years or so but they just haven't been up to snuff for quite awhile.

(Before anyone calls me nuts for having for GBA's, let me say this. First I have a ton of game playing friends, inlcuding my girlfriend, and second, I got the GBA's for $20 a peice. Not bad. Plus I got link cables on clearance at "K-mart" for $3 a peice.)
Anyway, I hope this disk somehow inlcudes, Four Swords, Tetra's Trackers AND Majora's Mask, but that's probably too much to ask for. It will probably be just the first two, like everyone else said. It would be really sweet if it was all of the "old school" games however...
Post by: Boffo on September 09, 2003, 11:34:47 PM
I very rarely have problems connecting here. And what's with people having problems with double or triple posts? Impatient? Again, I've never had that problem. Although my cable connection is rock solid that could be why.
Post by: nitsu niflheim on September 10, 2003, 03:33:46 AM
Several times I have to refresh the page, because I swear it forgets that I am trying to open a page.
But for the bonus disk. I if have to buy a new GCN to get it, I will, but you can rest assured Nintendo will get an earful from me.

You know you can visit BOTH sites. It's not like you have to choose one or the other.
Post by: Hostile Creation on September 10, 2003, 08:26:27 AM
Four Swords looks very cool, and Tetra's Trackers looks okay from what I've seen, but I have no GBA, so it's a moot point.
Post by: AgentSeven on September 10, 2003, 10:40:31 AM
I'm starting to doubt this bonus disc. If someone finds any information about this posted elsewhere, from a RELIABLE source. Please post it.

Post by: joshnickerson on September 10, 2003, 12:25:59 PM
Back to the bonus disc, it could very well be true. My local Wal-Mart had a special deal where you could get a Cube, link cable, Wind Waker and the OoT: Master Quest disc for $149, and it sold rather briskly. Of course, I'm betting that if this disc does come out and Nintendo says it will only be for new Gamecube owners, retailers like Target and Best Buy will be selling them for ten bucks anyway.

The disc will not include the Philips CD-I Zelda games. I saw a few clippings from G4's Icons and I was so shocked at how bad it was it made me appreciate the movie Ishtar (a turkey of a movie starring Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty. The movie is so bad it even made Super Mario Brothers look like 'Gone With the Wind') much more.
Post by: Bill Aurion on September 10, 2003, 06:49:29 PM
2) I make 3 that says that is in no way, shape, or form the same review of ED that was in the mag. And if you ask they probably will deny the "bad review"
3) The CD-i games were that bad. I played one of them many years ago and was scarred. I almost ditched the Zelda series after that, but thankfully I recovered.

I don't beleive it's a rumor, since Game Informer Online has sources that
confirm that this deal will be coming from noa. here's a link
http://www.gameinformer.com/News/Story/200309/N03.0909.1706.31512.htm
Also PlanetGamecube has reported the samething, This leads to more
credentals that it's actually coming.
Please let there be an option to buy it seperately as well as packaged with
NGC.

Hi!
As you know, there are countless web sites on the Internet that post Nintendo news and information. Many of these independent web sites take the liberty of posting news based on rumors, speculation, or assumptions--and that is just fine. We understand that Nintendo fans are eager for as much new information as possible!
However, as a publicly traded company in Japan, Nintendo has a responsibility to those who rely on us as a manufacturer (retailers, suppliers, employees, stockholders, etc.) to be the most accurate source of information on the latest Nintendo products. Only when information is official can we comment on it.
Therefore, the information fans will see on our official web site will always be confirmed, reliable information from official Nintendo sources and press releases. Although officially confirmed information can still change from time to time (like product release dates), Nintendo's own web sites will be the most current official source for all Nintendo news and information.
On Nintendo.com, we also strive to provide as much information as possible on upcoming games and accessories that are made by other companies and licensed for use with our systems. However, because these products are not produced or sold by Nintendo, we may not have all of the latest details. In these cases, we recommend that fans visit the web site for the actual company who produces the product in question, or contact them directly for the latest news.
Nintendo of America Inc.
R.M. Ricket
It seems Nintendo is denying it for now.
I hope they will let it be purchased seperately.

Nintendo is not denying it, this guy is saying that Nintendo cannot comment on anything that has not been officialy announced.
Hopefully it is true, it would mean that every Zelda game in existence(except the CD-I 3) is playable on the GC(with a little help of the Game Boy Player)!!
Post by: Ian Sane on September 11, 2003, 12:11:25 PM
One thing that is worth noting is that the Nintendo rep actually acknowledged the existance of the rumour. Usually they give a "I don't know what you're talking about" bullsh!t message. Just the fact that the guy commented directly on the rumour and seemingly knew what it was about suggests that it's probably legit.

I just hope they will have it for grabs for us who already own a GC.
Be intresting if anything will be upgraded, maybe SNES quality Zelda and Zelda II? and Improve Frame Rates for MM since at times it will go down to 15fps in the 64 incarnation.

At my Best Buy the other day, they were selling the Rebel Strike bonus disk for $5, I decided, what the hell, I wont be able to get the game when it comes out, why not buy the bonus disc when I can?
So, I went up to checkout, and it came up as $0.01
To bad I couldnt go back and grab 99 more....
Best penny I ever spent, even better than the penny I spent on my Ocarina of Time player's guide, and the soundtrack for Crash Bandicoot 2 for GBA.

q]
The five dollar price tag was to pre-order the game. (Boy that pre-order term is really stupid, I mean what's it mean? You order it before you order it?) It was a great deal though.
As for finding the Zelda bonus disk V.2 if it IS infact a pack in disk. Just do it ebay.
