    It's very like the wait for Ocarina of Time. Especially with the remake of the Ocarina in it. Hoorah for the bonus disc!

    Preordered in Smyths. I was #7 on their Zelda order list. With loyalty card, it should be €54.

    There's a story going around that the bonus disk will only run at 60Hz - Eurogamer

    Ive given up completely on getting excited about games especially games like Zelda and FF etc.
    The only ever disappoint and maybe i have expected too much but i cant remember the last time that i had great expectations and they were met by the game.

    Ocarina of Time was nothing amazing so i will just wait and see.

    Did we already do the childish sniggering at the name Wind Waker yet or did I miss that?

    I'd have to say, in all the years of being a gamer, I only got excited about one game. So much so I had trouble sleeping the night before, and that was Ocarina of time. I don't, however, hold the same amount of optimism for WindWaker, but no doubt it will be enjoyable.

    well if you bought it within the last few years , it's likely to have 50/60 hz option,

    check your maunal - if you still have one

    also check through a few commands on your remote control..

    you may stumble across a few preset switches to access 50/60 secam etc..

    the first step is admitting you have a problem...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,322 ✭✭✭Repli


    I know loads of ps2 heads who think all nintendo consoles are for 'kids' etc and never heard of zelda.. they dunno what theyre missing out on :P Im a bit p1ssed off about the 2nd disc I found out my TV is 50hz tonight >=[


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,571 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    It's God's way of punishing you for not having an N64 with Zelda in the first place.

    The only game i can think of (of any game i have ever played) where i huge expectations of what it might be but when i eventually played that game it was even more amazing. Unfortunately the game was too easy and too addictive and become a very short experience. I was actually mad with myself that i hadnt got the stones to import it.

    Mario 64.

    I honestly cant think of any others.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,162 ✭✭✭ondafly


    its funny, I never played Ocarina of Time until about approx 3 weeks ago. I went and bought an N64 with it. Its a great game, even if the graphics look a little dated - it was something that had to be done !

    Bought a cube last Friday, and this Friday i will own a Zelda game on a launch day.

    for Cube games, if you hold down the "B" button on the joypad, while the Gamecube logo is displaying, some games will then give you the option to run at 60mhz - it works for me on smash bros, Rogue II, metroid and luigi's Mansion

    for shame dusty, for shame :o

    damnit, I need a gamecube :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,056 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    you can have mine for say...50 euro if you want tact ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Doodah7


    Was in GAME at lunchtime and was asking about Zelda. The guy behind the counter didn't know how much the game is going to be yet!!!:rolleyes:

    Anyway, they also have the same deal that Nintendo did for Metroid Prime, i.e. a GC boxed with the game (ltd. edition of course). While the GAME guy didn't know the price for sure, he assumed it would cost 200 hoofers.

    Veerrryyy tempted to go for this. Oh yeah, the GC itself is a limited edition platinum colour :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,931 ✭✭✭long_b


    Preordered it ages ago from GAME - someone from the shop just rang - it'll be 60 yoyos.

    GAME are doing 10% off for Membership Cardholders though.
