Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time 3D

[Brad]

Remembered why I hate Club Nintendo. Went through the registration and poxy survey, all the while it tells me my free CD is waiting for me and then, in spite of being Club Nintendo UK & Ireland, it does not recognise an Irish postcode and won't complete. I remember ringing them and emailing them about this when they first started Club Nintendo and got no help from them.

Check the box that says ignore address check?

She did say it in the N64 version.

Ah, ok. It's been a while.

Does anyone here live in America? Being in Australia Club Nintendo US won't ship here, but it seems a waste to miss out on the CD. If someone doesn't mind me signing up to Club Nintendo and having the stuff shipped to their address let me know

Unfortunately, that seems to ignore everything but the post code, which is still a problem. Figuring I didn't have much to lose, I put in my address with a Northern Irish post code in the hopes that it will get there and they'll figure it went to the wrong place and redirect it here. I may never get it but at least it has a chance now!

For those waiting on their GAME pre-order bonuses, you should get another email from them saying that they're looking to send them later i.e. when they get them.

Oddly enough I just noticed in the confirmation email that they have my postcode ending in DX rather than HP. How the hell did that happen? So I'm in the same boat as you in that everything bar my postcode is correct. Hope the CD gets here ok. Yours too.

How much side quest content is there in OoT?

Yes, I'm lucky to have this as my first real playthrough, having only played the original to just past

Death Mountain

There's quite a few otehr things to do in addition to the main quests IIRC. Not that many actual real quests but plenty of cool stuff if you collect all of X, fill up all of Y, that kinda thing. I never played master quest so I don't even know what that is, which is nice.

I'm just loving how nicely it plays, the 30FPS feels so silky smooth compared to the N64 one.

[BIG EDD]

Played this for around 2hrs love the bright and colourful graphics and the silky framerate ooohh yes
Sounds is also impressive

[Brad]

I'm sticking my 595s on to play this tonight. Was the 64 framerate that bad? it's been soooooo long since I've played this.

Gutted - can't find this anywhere in Johannesburg at the moment, even though a couple of stores have big flyers and other marketing gubbins

Yeah, it was like 20fps ish, with drops. I couldn't replay the collectors edition that came with Wind Waker back then. It was bad but not unplayable. The improve frame-rate is reason enough to get the 3DS version. Now waiting for Majora's Mask ^^

[Dogg Thang]

Just had a go. Wow, it's lovely. Nice and smooth and just being back in that world is fantastic. It has loads of charm right from the start. Controls seem really natural too. Don't find myself missing the N64 pad at all.

Bought it today. Completed the Deku Tree in what must have been 10 minutes. I seem to have played this game too much.

The really sad thing though: I DIDN'T GET A CLUB NINTENDO CODE!!! So when they said that the CD would be available in Europe, they assumed the UK was all of it? That CD was probably 25% of the reason why I bought on day one. That's it, I'm canceling my subscription (throwing my Wii out the window).

Edit:
And yeah, it looks very pretty and the 3D effect is super neat.

The "surround" sound effect in Royal Family's tomb when the dull shrieks occur sound really good.
