Goat damn this brutal social/work schedule... my copy of Zelda is still shrinkwrapped... now it sits on my desk here at work, attracting the eyes of anyone who happens to stray past the door...

More or less as soon as it went up on the site for preorder.

Ordered 6th December myself... I believe DVDBO started their pre-order scheme end of November as someone I know has an invoice for 29th November.

Mid January does seem to be the cut off point... about half the people I know who ordered that month are getting the disc, and half of them are not...

Well mine on 1st March is just a bit out of date then.

I guess I'll be sent Zelda TWW from a second(third?) batch then.

Madness, I'd at least open it and have a good old fiddle...

I know it's madness! But what can I do with the gf only has a PS2 at her place? (Other than have another hardcore addictive session of Dynasty Warriors 3 XL, that is)?

(Of course, to make matters worse, Dynasty Warriors 4 is out today... grrrr... so much addiction, so little time...)

Pre ordered mine a month ago. Picked it up yesterday.

"I got the golden disk-ette! I got the golden disk-ette!"
[/Willy Wonka mode]

Visions of sumo wrestler-like Oompa Loompas slavishly coding away, as a purple velvet-coated Miyamoto looms above them all...

Yes, yes, I know all the discs are golden, I just opened mine at work and got all tingly, is all.

You think that's hard! Try doing it with just Japanese text!

Do the decent thing and buy her a nice Cubie!

Yes, buy her a cubie. FYI dtj, Circuit City is selling them for $129 this week (with the free game).

Ooh! Good call!

I've boycotted Circuit City since the DIVX "support" debacle back at the dawn of DVD (to think they actually sided with the notion of paying for a movie every time you wanted to watch it... good goat, what a bunch of greed-mongers that company is - owned by lawyers, it is). But it might be quite nice to pick up a 'Cube for her. Thanks for the tip!
