ugh fine whatever i'll buy this shitty game from a shitty series for a shitty platform and have a heap of fun I GUESS

 

[Dennis]

OP should probably mention this beauty, too!

I want this but is that a digital download only and no physical cartridge?

Nintendo, you cheap motherfuckers.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Brilliant OT and title.

Why so reluctant? Embrace the nostalgic bliss

The Gold inside looks kinda tacky.

 

[Bacs]

Decided to trade in my old 3DS for the XL bundle. I'm looking forward to this game, can't wait!

 

[Boards of Canada]

If I buy this Zelda 3DS, can I transfer my downloads from my old 3DS XL to this new one?

 

[LordMuffin]

So many games to play for the 3DS already and Zelda comes out... Aaaaaagh, almost hating Nintendo for attempting to ruin my university carreer!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Yes

 

[Necrovex]

My hype for this game cannot be contained. Nintendo has been nailing it this holiday season. I quite hope TRU does its buy two get one free deal soon. I want to continue building my 3DS catalog.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Spoiler

It's a parody account I made.

Probably pick this up around January, though knowing me I'll impulse buy it from Amazon at like 1AM on the launch day or something. Those reviews can't be wrong. This along with Pokémon is going to dominate my life during the holidays.

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

I ordered 2 copies of this, do you think the order might exceed the 1kg weight limit? :/

 

[hwy_61]

Jesus fucking Christ, that Destructoid review sticks out.

 

[Dennis]

I just checked the local prizes and there is no money saved buying the Zelda 3DS XL bundle.

I can purchase a 3DS XL and a physical copy of the game for the same price Nintendo is asking for a bundle with NO physical cartridge.............WTF

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Jesus fucking Christ, that Destructoid review sticks out.

It's immensely irritating in a way, but what can you do, opinions.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Gah, still stumped over whether to pick up a PS4 (which I have on pre-order_ or the Zelda XL bundle. I can't justify getting both but I really want to play this and Fire Emblem. And Pokemon. That Bravely Default looks good too,,,Animal Crossing as well.

 

[BY2K]

Nintendo, you cheap motherfuckers.

Do like I will.

Sell the download code, buy a physical copy.

Bam.

 

[Boards of Canada]

Yes

No way. I always assumed it wasn't possible. NICE.

Now I wonder how much EB Games will give me for a 3DS XL.

 

[eliochip]

Yep, the street date is broken two days ago

I got it yesterday.

Where where where where where please tell me

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Bah if anybody knows a UK store breaking street date let me know.

 

[Sendou]

Nintendo should break the street date on eShop every once in a while to make it fairer.

 

[hwy_61]

No way. I always assumed it wasn't possible. NICE.

Make sure you have wifi when you do your transfer at gamestop. A mobile hotspot will do.

 

[hwy_61]

Where where where where where please tell me

Yeah, let's get people in trouble.

Do not disclose where you got it.

 

[crazyjah2003]

Cannata's opinion on this from this week's weekend confirmed means I'll have t pre-order. I did not expect both 3D world and ALBW to be unskipable

Wait, I take that back.

It is actually cheaper to buy the separate 3DS XL and physical game than the bundle.

O...M...G...

 

[Semajer]

Do like I will.

Bam.

I'm pretty sure that the game is pre-loaded, so there is no download code.

 

[Froli]

Oh mans. So excited to play this. Gif to celebrate!

Should be added on the first post. Beautiful man

ugh fine whatever i'll buy this shitty game from a shitty series for a shitty platform and have a heap of fun I GUESS

What a tsundere lol

 

[Benzychenz]

I'll never get over how ugly that gold cover is.

Spoiler

Thank you based NoE

 

[BY2K]

Unboxing videos show it's a download code.

 

[Sourtreats]

I posted this in the trailer thread, but I'll share the temptation again.

Spotted at Walmart last night, so close but so far away.

I'm gonna have to either wait till Christmas for this game and treat myself or wait much longer. Damn PS4 using all my money up.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Wait, I take that back.

O...M...G...

It's expensive but then again, these will sell out fast and no doubt they'll be worth a bit more than a standard XL in the future.

 

[Volotaire]

Have some Overworld music!

Yes, finally in a pure form!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Any idea how much GAME (UK) give in trade-in value for an OG 3DS? It's in pretty good condition.

 

[Doogdogg]

Music is really good. Anything from Hyrule castle?

 

[Sky Walker]

Where where where where where please tell me

Saudi Arabia ;p

 

[BY2K]

I got 60$ at GameStop for my OG 3DS when the XL came out.

 

[D-e-f-]

Dude, it says Download Code on the box. Was the same with Wind Waker. When it's pre-installed it says Pre-Installed (or Pre-Loaded?).

 

[Volotaire]

The Gold inside looks kinda tacky.

Yeh I'm not a fan of the design at all. Maybe it looks better in real person?

I much prefer the OG Zelda 3DS Design which came with OoT.

Wouldn't it be better to go through ebay?

Haven't been following Weekend Confirmed for a while, might have to have a listen to this.

 

[FlynnCL]

Lovely OT. I just cannot wait to get into this!

I seem to remember a bloke getting £60 from his unit, but that was one month ago

 

[Aquamarine]

DAY ONE!!

Oh my god, I am SO excited for this game!!! I'm jumping up and down like a little schoolgirl waiting for it!!

Why does this never happen around my area? I'm jell of those of you who reap such benefits.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Not when I have 60+ downloadable games no

I seem to remember a bloke getting £60 from his unit, but that was one month ago

Wow :\ CeX is way better, but I guess you can't trade in for a brand new unit there.

 

[Bacs]

I got 60$ at GameStop for my OG 3DS when the XL came out.

Yesterday was when I traded. I got $65 out of my 2011 3DS, which I put down on the bundle.

 

[MrCookiepants]

God damn, that box art is beautiful. Will look so good next to OoT 3D <3

Oh yeah. WHERE DID THE STREET DATE BREAK?

 

[spiritfox]

I need the LE 3DS.

And the game I guess.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

£60 trade in according to their website.

 

[XOMTOR]

O...M...G...

Really? That is kinda crap yea. Here in Canada, the bundle will be $219 and regular price on the XL is $199 and games are $40 (although XL's regularly come on sale for $179 so it evens out).

 

[Currygan]

Not when I have 60+ downloadable games no



Wow :\ CeX is way better, but I guess you can't trade in for a brand new unit there.

if you're planning to get some cash back, I'd recommend Ebay if you have an account. These things sell fast, thats what I did with my OG 3DS (purchased the XL and did the transfer first of course)

 

[Dracandros]

Jesus fucking Christ, that Destructoid review sticks out.

And thankfully it does. I didn't preorder this game just because I expected this game to be...exactly what the Destructoid reviewer detailed.

I just want the game to be as good or better than Minish Cap...and I *really* would like to play another LttP-style game. I'm just not sold.


*feel free to keep hype train and happiness moving along though*

 

[ebullientprism]

I dunno if I like the idea of renting items. To me the best parts of a Zelda game are going into a dungeon and then finding an item. And once you leave that dungeon you start to see the world around you slightly differently as the items you get will often let you reach places you couldnt earlier.

Just finding them all in a shop early on will kill that feeling.
