Will the UK version get Octarina of time, because I've never played it either!

Actually, the only Zelda game I've played is the original GameBoy adventure, which had me completely hooked....
1. Yes.

2. Yes, apparently.

Yes we do, increase your chances by preordering. ;) Amazon have the bonus disc listed, as do GAME, others may vary.

Check your order online at DVDBO's website PVB. They've recently updated the Zelda orders to indicate if you will get the bonus disc or not with the main game. Mine has been changed and I will be getting it...

Then again the "spare" copy I also purchased came through the door yesterday! So anyone who wants the US bonus disc can have mine when the DVDBO one arrives...

My account history just says "Zelda, Wind...etc Coming Soon,
with no mention of whether I'll get the bonus disc or not.

I only ordered it on 1st March, so maybe I got there too late. :?

Spare bonus disc you say? Pretty please! :D

Yeah that seems to be the case with DVDBO. Order one Zelda and get one bonus disc. Order more and you only get half that number of bonus discs. I have friends who ordered 4, 6 etc copies of Zelda and are only getting 2, 3 bonus discs...

I've just e-mailed DVDBO to ask whether I'm getting the bonus disc or not.

If not, Mayhem, I'd love the spare disc from you, m8, pretty please, with sugar on top. 8)

I'd buy it even if the game was poor, thankfully it sounds rather
good.

I just want to check out the graphics good and proper.

It appears from the screenshots and videos to be both a technical
and an artistic tour de force. A vindication of the decision to
use a cel shaded/npr visual style.

Wouldn't be the first time I've bought a game/console just to check
out an engine. :)

As I am also getting 2 copies of Zelda, I may keep the spare copy of both of them together and sell as a package. If not, then you can have the bonus disc for... well I'm not gonna charge the stupid price that some sites are. No more than £10 I'd say... which is much less than the eBay copy I got was (£18 total)...

Sounds fair to me, especially as I never owned an N64, so the game will be completely new to me. :)

Oh, and I can always let the nephews play it while I play the WW game. 8)

I'll let you know what DVDBO say about the disc. :)

I asked the guys at http://www.play247.com about the bonus disc situation for the PAL release, and this is what they said:
Hi there.

Thanks for the email.

We can confirm that when the Pal Zelda for the GameCube is released we will be supplying it with the bonus disc.

We hope this information is of use.
Slightly just pre-ordered one. PAL60 sir? :D

Aha... so you went at lunch to pick up your copy, eh? I'll have to wait until work lets out... then I'm off to the shop.
