Right there... You can get 2 select games and register and you get the disc. You could also subscribe to Nintendo Power to get the disc. So Nintendo isn't totally boning their fans, but for somebody like me who bought the GC just about a Month ago, this is kinda a smack in the face. I should only have to register my Cube to get the disc, not chose from 5 games of only 1 I actually want. It kinda sux and I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet.

I dont know how Nintendo can even call that Zelda bundle complete when all of the Zelda games arent in the package to begin with.The fact that you have to go through all that crap just to get one is kind of ridiculous.

Plus with Sony coming out with the HDD,the PSX,and the PSP next year what in the blue hell is Sony thinking? Nobody is made out of money like that.$99 for the Sony HDD,at least $250 dollars for the PSP,and the Xbox wannabe PSX is going to be close to $900 bucks.

Btw,why havent you been posting much lately? I noticed you axed your version of "System Wars" at the Freel Lance Police website shortly after my leave of absense.Is all you guys really talk about is Counter Strike? Would'nt that get kind of boring after awhile? Oh well. To each his/her own I guess.Plus thanks for the kind words.Getting rid of your System Wars just for little ole me.I'm touched.

Yea, I just started posting at the VGR SW boards again since they banned the game. So I decided to just can the SW forum here. Well, the site is actually for a counter-strike clan, so alot of us mainly play PC games.

Yea, it is mostly CS since my clan just plays CS right now. Makes sense right? The world of CS gamers is huge and there is quite a bit to talk about. Plus the stuff that goes on in FLP's 2 servers.

As far as the Zelda disc goes, it is better than the offering they were giving out with the Wind Waker Preorders. 4 Zelda games isn't bad. I have the disc on it's way as of yesterday. I am kinda dissapointed that the gameboy DX version isn't included and neither is Zelda III.

I axed my SW forum because I didn't feel the need for it. If people want to talk about that stuff, they can go to the anything and everything forum. You must have registered in my forums too, that is the only way you could have seen my posts and copied that one below.

As for me not posting much, well look at it around here, there isn't exactly much to talk about as of late. The arguements have been relatively weak and nobody is bringing anything fresh to the table, sick of leftovers.

That reminds me...a few days ago, I was over Pitt's brand-new EB to pick up THPS4 and a net adapter. Out of curiousity, I asked the clerk if they had the retail price of a used copy of this new Zelda bundle in their computers yet. Apparently, it's prolly gonna sell above the 30 dollar mark. Suggests that this thing is gonna go for a lot of money on ebay...I was hesitant about the NP subscription, but the way things are looking you'll be able to get a new copy cheaper than a used one that way..

It's a nice bundle to be sure...it would have been nice to have gotten one with the my GC, but even at 20 bucks, it's not a bad deal. A Link to the Past, DX and the Oracle games would have been cool additions...but then again, Nintendo never said this was a "complete" collection like Game says they did.

In any case, owning some of the best games ever made at 5 bucks a pop...I'm there :D

I never played Zelda I and II, that's the main reason I'm getting it. I just went ahead and did the Nintendo Power order to get it. As far as game mags go, it has the most biased useless reviews, and over all it is pretty crappy. It does come with some cool freebies through-out the year usually, and some nice exclusive pictures of upcoming games.

I look at it like this, I wasn't aware of Zelda really in the NES era, and missed those games. Right now, buying a used NES and the old Zelda games would cost me a lot more than $20. And anyway, I hate that old square-shaped controller. Whether you get this game by registering games you've bought, getting a subscription, or just getting it bundled in with a $99 system, this is a sweat deal. (I don't need Ocarina, already got it and Masterquest and still have the N64 version. Also still have Majora on N64, but its nice to have them all on one disk and playable with my wavebird control. Also have LInk to the past for GBA, so playing it through the GBA player, I can play nearly every zelda game ever made on one system.) I guess this could be called pimping out old games, but I like old games as much as new ones. Hell, I still play Chess and Mancala, which are centuries old. A good game is a good game. And my chess set was crudely carved in mexico in onyx (mayan style), so really, you could say it has "really crappy graphics." I could buy a new, more stylish chess set--perhaps the pewter Lord of the Rings chess set I saw for $1200--but it'd just be a rehash. :)"

You don't think I knew it was you. I just didn't care, it was funny watching you bash yourself lol... I knew right away because of your email address. Reg513game@aol.com

Yea when people register I know since I am the person that created the site and monitor it. It was actually kinda cool talking to you there, you were alot more civil in my forums.

Also in numerous posts when you asked me what I thought about it, I would always say I didn't care, because I don't care. Whatever you do with your spare time doesn't effect me in anyway.
