I'm not really sure I get what this is. Can you play all of the four zelda games mentioned in the article just as long as you have a Gamecube? And I don't mean demos, I mean the full game. --Link hero of light 15:11, 21 December 2007 (EST)

Yes, it contains the full versions of the four games mentioned. That's why it's stated that it's so "coveted" :) --Adam 15:16, 21 December 2007 (EST)

I noticed the box at the bottom of the cover that says "Not for Resale". Does that mean that it's being sold illegaly on amazon and ebay?--Link hero of light 22:32, 25 December 2007 (EST)

No! Okay, so when it was released in the UK there were ONLY two ways to get it:
  1. "Buy" it from the Nintendo stars catalogue (so obviously those were available for about 3.7 seconds) or
  2. Get it in a bundle with a new Gamecube.
So I dutifully went out and bought a completely useless second Gamecube so I could get it (once again the US gets the best deal, I mean free with a magazine subscription wt*!?). I'm not bitter, I'm sure you can tell :)
So my copy is tucked away inside the box of MK:DD!!. There's no "not for resale" notice, just a sticker on the front that shows that the bonus disc is contained, and says "not to be sold separately" (pretty standard). But that doesn't mean I couldn't sell it to you if I wanted (p.s don't get any ideas!) That applies to retailers at the initial point of sale, same as the "Not for Resale" notice on the free gift with the magazine (you see that one almost everything they give away). That's why Amazon themselves aren't allowed to sell it, but marketplace sellers (private individuals like you or me) can do whatever they want because they're not retailers. --Adam 04:16, 26 December 2007 (EST)
Well actually you can buy it. I bought a used one at a Gamestop. Lol I treasure it. And the American version does have that notice on the bottom, but stores like Gamestop or Blockbuster don't care. I'm happy though :D--Green 04:23, 26 December 2007 (EST)
I was lucky enough to get it from the stars catalogue. Guess that's a benefit of living in a small country: less competitors. It's one of the best three things I ever got from the catalogue (the other being Geist (NGC) and the FF:CC cd). IfIHaveTo 04:42, 26 December 2007 (EST)
Seriously, don't even talk to me about the stars catalogue. I never spent a single star, and I had over 15,000 saved. Then they decided to "change their terms and conditions" and told me I had to log into my account within the next 30 days to accept. Next thing I know my login doesn't work, I call Nintendo and nobody will help, I email them and they don't reply, and my account is deactivated and all my stars lost. Beyond furious..... --Adam 05:29, 26 December 2007 (EST)

Sorry to hear that, and I mean it. :\ I guess that's another benefit of living in a small country. I pretty much got responses on all my questions within three days.IfIHaveTo 11:20, 26 December 2007 (EST)

That's pretty weird, I always thought Nintendo has one of the best customer service. Sorry that happened to you.--Green 15:00, 26 December 2007 (EST)

Does any of your copys have that bug that causes Majora's Mask to crash? Don't worry, I don't want to buy one of yours, I just wnt to see how many copys have that bug.--Link hero of light 21:49, 31 December 2007 (EST)

I think every version has that bug. I have experienced it once on my first playthrough and twice on my second, but in both cases, I was already playing for a very long time.

I haven't experienced it at all. I guess I'm just lucky. :P--Green 04:58, 1 January 2008 (EST)

I played MM through with no issues. --Adam 06:43, 1 January 2008 (EST)
I swear that bug must be in pretty good, because every time I play for a while it'll freeze up. I'm not even talking about playing all day or anything. Just long enough to get through the Deku Palace and get the beans. Axiomist (talk) 04:39, 29 January 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yeah. I've faced the bug only once. It was when I was just about done with the Kafei and Anju sidequest, and I had just gotten the Postman's Hat for the first time, and then it froze. I was really ticked off. Gormanbros 11:10, 15 August 2010 (EDT)Gormanbros
