I Wish NTSC got something for the game :(

[kittychloe]

Looks like the chest is a pre order bonus in aus, not a ce here it seems

[asian1skill]

Yeah is north america getting this as well?

[kittychloe]

If you only want the chest it seems like preordering in aus is the best option given exchange rates, if the uk get a ce and aus don't then uk is a better choice for that

[CHUNKU]

in Australia if you pre order the game at EB you get the musical chest. its too bad because it does not come with the 3ds xl bundle but luckily I know the manager at my local store pretty well so he can get an extra one shipped in for me c:

The picture shows a box for game so I assumed it would just come in the box with the game, I'm not sure if aus will post preorder items over seas but they post them to my house I hope, if I had the money I would get a few

[vhal_x]

I think Artemis meant that GAME don't ship orders over 1KG outside of the UK, and also they don't ship any preorder bonuses out of the UK (although the preorder bonus thing doesn't apply here as it's now an edition rather than a bonus) xx

[kittychloe]

Lucky ukians.. I'm happy with a musical toy chest

[vhal_x]

I'm looking forward to the CE :) Was only expecting to pay ?34.99 for the game itself, so I've had to find the other ?15 from somewhere in my budget to be able to get it, but luckily it's only ?15 of a difference, so should be doable :) xx

[kittychloe]

The conversion makes it $80 for me plus postage so not in my budget lol I prefer the $60 for the chest

[vhal_x]

Yeah, the chest is so adorable :) As soon as I saw the little clip that Nintendo posted I was like "squeeeeeeeee!" :rotf: xx

[kittychloe]

It is a cute box... As much as I want more than one I don't need them lol

US Version

http://www.gamestop.com/nintendo-3ds/consoles/nintendo-3ds-xl-gold-and-black-with-the-legend-of-zelda-a-link-between-worlds/112313

Ended up ordering this. It'll be my first 3DS, had to get it for Zelda, though.

[Iwatasan]

It is now! :D

As Robert Joseph mentioned the US is getting the 3DS XL, and so is Canada. Japan also kind of got it for a second as a limited edition (700 units?!)...sold out in 5 minutes.

But now, BestBuy.ca (http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/legend-of-zelda-link-between-worlds-nintendo-3ds/10255522.aspx?path=f4fc60f69a2ad18d6bc8ab8027822d9 9en02) has the treasure chest as a preorder bonus for ALBW. At this point if US doesn't get it as a CE or a preorder bonus I will shit my pants.

Well darn, at least that'd be one that I can play on my US 3DS... anyone willing to do a pre-order for this in Canada until we confirm that there's a way for us USA-ites to get one locally?

[Twisted]

yea, I hope we get it here in the US..but it specifically says best buy Canada as opposed to best buy..if we don't here about it on the US side in the next 48 hours, it ain't gonna happen...it probably won't..limited supplies and best buy Canada has 1/10th the stores America has..so America probably won't get it.

Yeah, that makes sense - then maybe somebody from Canada is willing to do a preorder for us? (will save a TON of money vs. the GBP CE purchase, albeit for a lesser edition)

[umbry1895]

As usual america gets shafted.
I really hated I missed out on the Ocarina of Time CE.
Really hope I can score a treasure box this time.

You sentence is wrong.

It's as usual European gets shafted.

WHAT?!?!?!?!? How did I never see this!!!?!?! :this: Darn you Nintendo and your crazy country exclusives.... now the hunt is on, but somehow I imagine these are worth an arm & a leg now...

[umbry1895]

That looks sick. I already knew that there is that golden preorder bonus case, but ocarina edition. That is whole different thing, wow.

[vhal_x]

Yeah, the Ocarina Edition is listed in the database here I believe. A bunch of us got them :) xx

[kittychloe]

I got the ocarina, brown inner box and the song sheet missing the outer one :(

[kittychloe]

Still tempted to order more copies for extra chests, but I expect many will make it to ebay

Oooooo, very nice! ^^ Glad it comes with a DLC code instead of a pre-install. Fish out the code, leave console in box on shelf! XD

[KnightOfTruth]

Nintendo's definitely giving me a good run for my money with this game - between the 3DS XL over here @$220 + tax, the GAME CE in the UK at ~$80 + shipping, and then the NTSC-U version of the cartridge (as I don't want to limit it just to the download only) at $39.99 its >$350... yikes!
