Re: Metroid Prime 2 demo disc
I got the Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, by preordering Wind Waker.
Nintendo sucks for doing that. I know people out there that preordered Wind Waker just so they could play Master Quest. Master Quest was truly awesome, so I didn't mind preordering Wind Waker, but that was the only "special offer" I completed.
The other Zelda disc looked cool, but I didn't feel like subscribing to Nintendo's subpar magazine, or registering games that I didn't own. And anyways, I own Majora's Mask, and the bonus disc didn't have A Link To The Past.
(My friend that did order Nintendo Power for the disc was SUPER PISSED when he heard that they released the original Zelda for GBA. That was the only reason he got the disc)
There's no way in hell I'd go out and buy the 5 games to get a demodisc. I'll just buy the game in November, and you all should too.
Metroid is such an awesome game too. I would think that it would detract from the overall experience if you played a demo before the game came out, but that's just me.
Nintendo has done a lot of stupid things this generation, and one of them was making these bonus discs so hard to get. Getting a bonus disc on preorder is logical, but having to register online and order their magazine.....that's just weak.
I love Nintendo, but I don't like their marketing strategies.
