Req: Reliable US Contact to Forward Zelda Bonus Disc?

[Pendragon]

I registered the serial number of a US GameCube I owned on Nintendo.com and was pretty surprised to receive the following email from Nintendo


"Subject: You've qualified for the LEGEND OF ZELDA: COLLECTORS GAME DISC

Congratulations!

By registering your system and your games via Nintendo's online product registration, you have qualified to receive the following: LEGEND OF ZELDA: COLLECTORS GAME DISC

It will be shipped to you via First Class Mail. Please allow up to 2 weeks for processing and shipping."


As I didn't think I would qualify for the bonus disc before I added two of the specified games e.g. Mario Kart and Mario Party 5.

I thought I had a number of postal addresses I could have the disc sent to and then forwarded onto me, which hasn't quite worked out. As such, can anyone recommend a reliable contact to forward this disc onto me if I were to cover cost of postage?

Sorry mate.
Just read your post again,did you mean a US address?
PM me, i have contacts in LA and NY.
Could maybe help you out.

I'd entered a family address I have in the US, but I haven't contacted them in years and I don't even know if they still live there. Plus I didn't know their zip-code, so I entered one of three possible ZCs I Googled... Unfortunately, I received this email from Nintendo this morning informing me that they'd already sent it.

"Hello!

You recently received an e-mail from Nintendo explaining that because you have registered your Nintendo system and games online, you've qualified for the LEGEND OF ZELDA: COLLECTORS GAME DISC.

We wanted to let you know it is on its way to you. Your award is being sent via First Class Mail, so you should receive it within 2 weeks.

Thank you for your interest in Nintendo products!


Sincerely,

Nintendo of America Inc."

So now I need to try and contact a member of the family in the US somehow... without a telephone number...

Thanks for the offer anywayz Nick. Much appreciated.

I got Canadian version of Mario Kart Double Dash and I will get Mario and Luigi for GBA once my parcel from tronixweb arrive.

Can it both qualify as it is from 2 different country. I got an American/Canadaian friend I could use. If I ask them

[Mayhem]

That's what has happened to me Pendragon, before I've registered either MKDD or M&L yet. The address I used is my American girlfriend's, so she is definitely gonna receive that sometime soon. And bring it over when she visits next month

Assuming it isn't an email cockup. I'm still gonna register both of course just in case, and if I end up with two copies, all the better 8)

Though my first mail stated the address I'd already entered when I signed up to MyNintendo, so I know at least they got the right person and the right address to send it to...

[Pendragon]

I thought I had plenty of time to arrange something, as I thought I had to register a couple of games, so the email from Nintendo definitely took me by surprise.

Keeping my fingers crossed...

Any chance this'll happen with NOE?

Any chance this'll happen with NOE?

Probably not.

US GameCube owners have to purchase 2 games of a specific set to qualify for the disc.

Nintendo of Europe are putting it in the Stars Catalogue on December 1st for the sum of 4500 stars (equivalent of about 18 games).

Somehow that doesn't quite seem to add up fairly...

Any chance this'll happen with NOE?

NOE are doing it in selected countries apparently....

Of course the UK isn't included

Yep, i checked the dutch site and my rubbishy knowledge of dutch has confirmed it

I will of course be abusing this and sending the disc to my sister who lives to holland

All i need is mario kart and 1080 (or mario party 5, but i think i'd prefer 1080)
