I got back from the cinema today (Thursday) and

low and behold there was a llovely looking brown box nestled behind a plant pot on my front step

and it came with the bonus disk - good day today!

Good old Amazon.

Got the Limited Edition Friday morning.

FAB!

Shame the saves send you back so far some times.

Otherwise just flippin' awesome.

The big beasty at the Dragon Roost was incredible
looking.

Very nice heat haze and wind effects.

Sounds is superb, very good ambient effects.

Controls are top notch too.

All in all this is one of the best games ever and
reason, if Unity weren't enough already, to get a Cube.

Yep...got mine yesterday from Amazon too...only got around to looking at it now though, because I received my "Broadband" pack and a GP32 at the same time!

Right now I feel like a dog with two dicks!

"Mysterious Cities of Gold" eps are being ripped down as I type - thanks to whoever it was for reminding me of that brilliant show, in a post the other day

Any ideas why the extra bonus disk for Zelda is contained within the main keepcase? Started pissing and moaning when I ripped open the package...till I read the blurb on the case about it being the Special Edition...phew!

I suspect that after the success elsewhere, and with the
large number of pre-orders, it was cheaper to ship
a single pack with the extra disc.

Erm, have you looked at the sea chart that tingle gave you when you released him?

Er, yeah, but the only places it shows are Outset, Windfall, etc. that I've already visited.

I'll have a look at it later with Tingle connected and see what's there then.

Best game ever!

Love the boomerang.

Deku leaf is cool too.

I also like sailing, seeing the lightning, cyclones,
rain, big sharky fish ramming the boat. Just sailing
along spinning the camera around...

If you look at the chart, you should be able to see the location of the fairy island, plus tingles home island...

Here's something weird (pleae forgive my inability to jettison my adult sensibilities): If you try to buy something from that mostly naked guy on the boat (Beedle?) and you already have a full inventory - when the text comes on screen saying "You don't need any more than you already have!" - well, it looks like Beedle's stroking himself off... or has a wicked case of pubic lice.

I'm watching him right now - and it is almost creepy.

Due to the fact that the whole family of biscuits here, have been down with an awful bout of colds, I decided to take myself and one of the mini-biscuit out to purchase Zelda for the GC and attempt to raise everyone's spirits.

A visit to Comet, followed by Currys and then PC World proved fruitless. In all three stores it appeared that the GC is being phased out.

However, a quick bus ride up the road into Lewisham provided a limited edition of Zelda courtesy of good old Game!

Brilliant stuff!

I can see this is going to keep my packet of biscuits happy for the rest of the bank holiday.

And here I am still waiting for the damn game to arrive in Australia.

Then again, given I need to buy a TV so I'm not fighting for TV rights with my housemate, I;'m still barely through Metroid, or Mario, or Harry Potter so...what will I do when Zelda arrives?

The chart with Outset and Windfall is the main chart. You need to open tingle's chart. Press [start] for your items screem, them either L or R i can't remember for the additional items. Go to the charts and open them.

Me is having a bit of a problem with the Boss in the Tower of Gods. He doesn't seem to able to place himself in the direction in which i'm shooting my arrows.

I think i'll need more than 6 hearts to make thru that one
