Fellas, guess what. I headed over to Bankstown just now to check on my pre-order for Zelda at Funland Games, and guess what? When the lady checked, my name wasn't in there!!! WHAAAA!
I told her that i pre-ordered it in February, and put a $10 deposit down. She showed me the book, and there was a Steve at the top, but it's not me! Being the absolutely wonderful person she is (and she knows me), she just put my name on the top of the list, and told me that she would check to see where my name is from before. Ahh, she's so nice.
She also told me that I might be able to get my hands on Zelda as EARLY AS TOMORROW AFTERNOON!!!!!!! Screw the midnight launches from EB! Hahaha! And the fact that that it's a family store is probably why they can't open that late anyways. I just have to give her a call tomorrow afternoon after uni, and she'll tell me if she got the shipments in or not. There was probably around 20 names on the list for Zelda, and she said she ordered 60 copies, but only might get 10! And since I'm on the top, well, lucky me. Hahahahaha!
And one important bit of news that she told me:
The limited shipments of bonus discs maybe aren't that limited. Remember the "limited edition" gold Zelda carts for N64? Think about that. Yeah baby, you probably didn't need to pre-order Zelda. But seeing so many people that want it is always a good sign. She told me that Nintendo just wants to create demand for the product, which is proabably how Ocarina of Time got into the Guiness Book or Records for the game with the highest amount of pre-orders ever - because of the "limited edition" gold cart. I think we that record's been toppled, by Wind Waker - because of the bonus discs.
