thanks for the info .. just ordered 2 , just hope at least one arrives in mint condition .

I just ordered 5, and might come back and order a few more seeing as these will only be available for those who pre-order

If i've learnt anything in my years collecting, it's that Zelda + pre-order bonus = worthwhile investment in the long term! I doubt this will be any different, and these will surely increase in value shortly after release when they are no longer available.

Zelda collector's are hardcore, and previous Zelda CE's (the few there have been) are now worth a nice packet! ;)

There seems to be some sort of confusion around this edition,

Taken from the official zelda website:
Preorder The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D at GAME or Gamestation to get your hands on a golden software box containing an exclusive A2 sized Zelda poster - in addition to the classic software box that the game comes in - absolutely free!

So maybe the UK gets another box that is not sealed like the Spanish version.

So confused. Have tweeted GAME to find out.

Hmmm why do they always like to confuse us.

Fingers crossed we get the one in the picture but also inside another box.

Let us know when they get back to you on twitter.

I want to pre-order loads but just been made redundant at work and only have 90 days left so shouldnt be buying any games really :S

Something tells me I need to preorder more Ocarina editions here in Australia...

[gurpswoo1]

Yes you definitely need to, they will be sort after in the future.

[gurpswoo1]

Ok so I finally understand what this, The gold sleeve edition is an empty box with the game sold along side it. It's not actually a game inside.

Ah, I understand now as well. So there is and will always be just one standard edition of the game, with the colourful artwork. Those who pre0ordered though will receive this bonus alternative bx, which is sealed to preserve its condition and to also authenticate it as an official Nintendo product.

So as I ordered five copies of the game, I will in fact receive ten separate items!

Just found the same video above and came to post it here but looks like im a day behind Gurps

Ok just been to my local game store and picked up the pre-order box. I got 2 from them as know the manager and have taken some pics. 1 have opened to show you what its like inside and with the pics of the poster.

Many thanks for the pictures.

[Venner]

Many thanks for the pictures.

Your welcome, it saves people having to open theirs so they can keep them sealed if they only have one.

Ive also bought a black 3DS this morning ready to play the game on :)

[gurpswoo1]

Nice let us know how the game turns out on the 3DS, would love to know.

Will do and cant wait to re-play it again.

Got the 3DS for £152 today from comet. I made them price match the Currys deal online at £157 and i used a £5 off voucher for comet to bring it down to £152.

Only bought the 3DS to play Zelda but so far having alot of fun with the inbuilt games and 3D photos at the mo.

Hehe, I just realised that this game is coming out on my birthday! How cool is that! I didn't expect it to be so soon, and thought it was at least another month away! Where does the time go, hey?

That's nuts, considering you can still pre-order this edition, there's not even a game included.

Happy Birthday for next week, What a nice birthday pressie being able to re-play Zelda 64 :)

Yeah i know couldn't believe it when i saw it, its only being offered by game and gamestation so guess alot of people dont know about it. Think im gonna try and get my hands on some more of these.

[hazzmos]

argh, this sucks. I want to get it, but since the 3DS is region locked, it's useless to me in the US.

Well from what I can tell, the case hasn't got any rating logos on it at all, so you could always buy the case and swap the contents from your regional variation.

You could even buy a batch of these from the UK, and make a nice little business for yourself swapping them with the contents from the US version and reselling them there in the States ;)

Oh my god, the gold box on ebay sold for £51, that's almost double what you pay for the pre order box AND the game, and they're only getting the box :swoon: xx

I wonder if the person buying it knew it was only the box and if they read the listing correctly?

[Gemini-Phoenix]

Perhaps it was an overseas bidder who can't order from the GAME website? Maybe it's a hardcore Zelda fanboy who thought they were rare because of the lack of copies for sale on eBay at the time? Maybe they just thought these had sold out already?

It would be nice if this price sticks though. Still debating whether or not to pre-order another batch and sit on them for a while...
