ebgames.com said that the game's shipping on the 5th....so i'm assuming it'll be at my house by the 7th.

EDIT: Damnit...just checked the shipping order for my disc and it's coming the 16th. Oh well.

Nintendo wont release it seperately. Despite whether you want the game or not, the only way you will get the disk without TWW is not going to be retail.

Amazon made one of the worst deals ever. They give you TWW, and the bonus disc for $50. But they also offer just the bonus disc for $70. One less game for 20 more dollars? Even if you dont want TWW, its a worse deal...oh well...

If there are extra after pre-ordering stops, on the day of TWW's release, they will likely include with non-preorders to they run out.

I think I understood what you mean GKG. I said $15 because thats what EB requires as a deposit. And with my town only having EB, thats about my only option.

I completely paid my copy now. The clerks at EB didn´t know exactly how much you had to pay to assure your copy of the bonus disc. The add said $15, but some of the clercks were saying $20.

Yeah I've had my copy reserved for a couple weeks now. Went to EB, asked them if they were reserving and if it included the bonus disc and they said yes. I had to put $20 down in order to get the bonus disc though. Probably with my luck, they'll give me a bonus disc, but not the one with Ocarina of Time and Master Quest on it. If that happens, there's going to be some EB employees with a foot up their @$$.

Pictures of the Disc + case. It is a DVD case




This pic is actually somewhat a spoiler, if you notice it:

As far as it seems, if you cancel your pre-order you have to bring back the bonus disc unopened and return it before you cancel your pre-order, I don't know if that holds true everywhere but that's seems to be the deal.

Thats the deal where im buying it. Basically you pay 20$(cnd) for the bonus disk, and pay the rest for the actual game.
