Zelda details confirmed stateside as Europe waits

Pre-order system mirrors Japanese - will localisation cost Europe again?

Posted by Staff
Nintendo of America has confirmed that gamers will be able to get their hands on two free Zelda titles when they reserve a copy of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker for GameCube.

The system that NOA will put in place will see The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest, known as Ocarina of Time Ura or Ura Zelda in Japan, gifted on a separate disc.

When contacted this morning, Nintendo Europe, tight-lipped as ever, refused to speculate on which way the decision will swing as to a European release of the much-coveted bonus. As you may well be aware, Ura Zelda was a Nintendo 64DD title that never saw the light of day. It was, at the time, rumoured to have online functionality, although this has been removed from the GC release.

As soon as anything is confirmed, you’ll be the first to know.
