Spirit Tracks Treasure Chest Press Kit
Region: North America
Publisher: Nintendo of America
Release Date: December 1, 2009
Package Description: Standard shipping box
Content Description: Wooden treasure chest, T-shirt, retail copy of
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, documentation
Other Info/Pics: Distributed to select press outlets, including (at least)
Destructoid,
GamesRadar,
GoNintendo, and
Kotaku. The treasure chest features the Spirit Tracks logo engraved on the lid, and when the lid is opened, a light-activated speaker plays a sound byte of the Zelda treasure chest opening theme. Inside is some printed documentation, and a retail copy of
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks atop a pile of green confetti paper. Also included with the package is a green T-shirt (men's L size) featuring Link character art. A common misconception is that the
Spirit Tracks train whistle came packed inside the treasure chest, but the train whistle was actually part of a different press package. Both press packages are considered to be among the rarest of Zelda collectibles. No definitive count is known, but there are probably at least 31 of these press kits in existence.
