Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks bonus: Feather stylus photo

There's a new Japanese website for DS game The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. There's not much going on there. Really, there's only one link to click and when you do, it shows you the above image.

Buyers of the game (in Japan) on launch day get this nifty see-through feather stylus. This isn't as much a pre-order bonus as a get-in-line-first-and-don't-move bonus. Limited supply, naturally. AndriaSang says that this bad boy can be nabbed on launch day, December 23rd, when Spirit Tracks will be released for the price of 4,800 yen.

I'm hoping they sell this stylus separately.

I have one of those. Nintendo had an offer a little while after Phantom Hourglass was released where they gave them away.

This stylus has been around for awhile, as I can attest to owning one. Believe it was a pre-order bonus for Phantom Hourglass or a pre Club Nintendo special award.

Way to reuse a bonus, Nintendo >_>

They gave away this exact bonus for Phantom Hourglass.

I'm guessing they just had a bunch left over from the LAST Zelda promotion.

I have one already, and I wouldn't be buying this new game to get one anyway. The last Zelda was boring and way too easy.

I thought it was a plastic knife at first.

Spork stylus confirmed.

No, ErigBurger, you're not the only one. I'm equally anxious to tickle your butthole with it.

Yeah.. I got mine from Phantom Hourglass too. Looks no different at all. It'd be nice if this one maybe some color to it or something. Oh well!

I already have one from Phourglass, but if I can get another one for free, I might go out of the way for it. Still, this is a really cheep move on Nintendo's part.

Would it really be that hard to make a new bonus. I already have a feather stylus and don't need another one.

I don't care about the stylus, but that's a sexy color for a DSi. Suddenly I crave key lime pie.
