Large Lines for Zelda Pre-orders have Formed
 
(Info from Famitsu)

In light of the two zelda add-ons large lines have formed the night before to get it at pre-order. Famitsu says one store had over 100 people lined before the shop opened at 9 A.M.



Some even camping out to get a good spot:



Just some interesting news...

BTW, the reason they are lined up? I guess most pre-orders have opened there.

Good god...

I guess it's safe to say that it's going to be bigger than any other title so far... phew...

That's good i guess. I wonder how the lines for Metroid Prime will look?

GameKinG 11-27-2002 11:25 PM

Well, surely less. I mean metroid isnt too big in Japan. And without the extras like Zelda, it probably wont compare.

Yep, they don't care much for Metroid. :rolleyes:

If Zelda can't boost sales.... then pokemon can!! :D

Hey wait, now I get it! You get the OoT and Ura ports when you pre-order!! So all those ppl were actually waiting for their OoT disc! :D

Yes, and I think that the policy is all sales are final so you cant can the pre-order after you have the disc.

you mean you can't CANCEL the sale after you preorder it?

of course not

if you bothered to use any kind of analization skills or even read GameKinG's post you would realize that if you cancelled your sale after the pre-order, you would in fact be getting 2 games for free...for some reason retail chains don't like that :rolleyes:

GameKinG 11-28-2002 03:02 PM

I thought what I said was pretty clear. You cannot get the disc at pre-order and then can the pre-order later. Nintendo and retailers do not want you to have a free disc with two games, and not have to pay for ZeldaGC.
