Just got my copy of the game and I can confirm that they didn't do (at least in my copy) the thing where the rupee's sit in the little holes left by the eco-friendly new casing (which was reported somewhere a few weeks ago, just can't remember if it was here).. Not a big deal or anything, but it was a neat little thing they could have done to spruce up the inside of the game case and make it more fun the the bleak white it is.
registering it right now.

So I guess I'm not the only one who had an issue with this. Unlike the rest of you though, I never got a confirmation email, so I guess this one just passed me by. :'(
Goddamnit Nintendo... you're making it easier for me to abandon you everyday. I feel like an idiot. 21 years of this and for what? No preorder bonus (yeah, I didn't get a poster, and that's lame in and of itself because I already have THREE of those), and a faulty website that froze me out of something I'd gladly pay for but you never sell? I mean geez, Nintendo, you packaged a soundtrack CD with every copy of Mario All-Stars last year; what the fuck stopped you from doing that for this?
I'd pay MONEY for a Zelda soundtrack since Nintendo never releases them, and I can't even get a free one? Take some fucking notes from Atlus, Nintendo. THEY know how to run promotional stuff like nobody else in the industry. I don't know how much of your bullshit I'm willing to take anymore.

I got mine taken care of without any issues. They ship the week of July 5th apparently. Nice of Nintendo to do this.
Sounds like I may be out of luck when I get my copy tomorrow.I guess I may have to acquire it by some other means than...
Hey Im an Artist. I draw on my free time and wouldd like to get sum feedbackk from you guys, im on http://stonerartz.deviantart.com/ . i just draw whatever comes to my mind you know so its pretty much random drawings. I would really apretiate it if you guys gave me some feedback if you guys are on deviantart. I would like to draw for games you know like the main characters and all dat but yeah thanks.
I got mine on Amazon so it won't come until tomorrow (luckily it shipped on Saturday, before then it said it wasn't coming until Tuesday). I'll register immediately, I hope the soundtracks aren't all sold out by then.

I didn't end up getting the pop-up either and when I went to call there was a nice message saying that due to their call volume they couldn't even keep me on hold for hours if I wanted too.. AND I WOULD HAVE.. instead, telling people to call back later "when the volume should be down", as if they know that'll even happen on a good day.
I had to e-mail them about it, and pretty much told them -after I requested to go through the process of trying to get in on getting the CD at all- that for so many of us to have to call or to have a problem to need to call/email just because, for one reason or another, we didn't get a pop-up is unacceptable. Pretty much made it a point to say that as a life long Nintendo fan (Since the NES right after it came out, when I got it for my birthday at age 4) that I've been through the highs and lows with this company but this just takes the cake.
So I guess we'll see if they'll even acknowledge my email, let alone get it in time to be included on the offer. It wasn't nearly as dripping with venom as it could have been, mostly because I knew it really wasn't going to get me any where.
And I know there's going to be someone who says "it was a free thing, all you need to calm down." Yeah, its free, and its nice to even have the option, but this really does go to show you how clueless Nintendo about the internet, not to mention that the limited nature of the promotion wasn't exactly made clear (or known) when it was announced to the world at E3. We were told all we needed to do was register our game and it'd be shipped, which we all could ASSUME would act exactly like getting a Nintendo Club Elite reward, NOT that you'd have hope dearly for a pop-up to show up on your screen. Nintendo had to have known the storm they were brewing when they decided to do this and you'd think they should have been better prepared.
This actually this smells almost exactly like the problem Nick had with buying Nintendo point cards just to be told by is 3DS that he couldn't use the $40 he just spent (to which I say sorry for the "Not to be rude but didn't you guys cover this months ago" comment made in that post) just because people weren't properly informed of how Nintendo intended to run things, with Nintendo leading them to make a decision based purely on that misinformation.
Honestly, we were promised something for our faith and continued support in the series and those of us who went out of our way to get the game today rather then wait months for when we really had the funds to do so (like myself), pretty much got a swift kick in the jewels for our troubles -I don't know anyone who wouldn't be pissed at that, free item or not.
(Yeah, I know, long comment, I'm really sorry)

@MichMasteR
Does this mean even though I didn't get the confirmation page, I still get the soundtrack due to the fact that i registered it and did the survey?

cancelled my amazon preorder a few days ago so I could buy it today. Got it and registered it this afternoon....all is good, thanks for the reminder, anyways Jim.
Now that mines on the way, I've been playing the actual game all afternoon. It's like playing the game all over again, especially since I've waited to play it since it launched and I've avoided re-playing it on the Wii and the Gamecube (promotional disc)..... took me about an hour to remember where that damn sword was again, though... LOL.
this offer donst apply for mexico, i tired to be a fucking mexican!! so anyone want my registration code? make me an offer.
Looks like those of us who pre-ordered through amazon are getting fooked cause the cd offer is only good till midnight pacific time on Monday.
@Wrath and Pride
Yeah you do, but I would recommend that you give them a call so you make sure you get the order inquiry

There is an update on the Nintendo club website. Everyone who registers the game and completes the survey by tomorrow, Monday the 20th, midnight will get the cd!
just buy mine off ebay.....I'll sell it to the highest bidder....LOL.... c'mon now, who is really going to sit there and jam this thing in their car. You might listen to it once and have it sit there and collect dust.
In all seriousness though, I got mine around 5pm, so those saying that they were all gone this morning were mis-informed. The website was just getting killed with traffic.....
@JQM78 depending on the quality, me. Love to listen to the orchestra/piano renditions of Celes song and Kefka's theme.
@JQM78 The music in Legend of Zelda is regarded as the best in the industry, if not THE best. This is also, to the best of my knowledge, the first official soundtrack for any Zelda game, which makes it collectible. It is also extremely limited and isn't being released in the mass market which makes it extremely collectible. Plus, it'll be just plain awesome to have.
You may want to consider holding on to it.

@JQM78 Are you kidding? I have the unofficial 184 tunes Twilight Princess soundtrack playing on my stereo all day...
Yeah sucks for everybody that ordered through amazon, I actually was going to order through amazon like I usually do but I had already planned a while back to go to the mall in my area today, which has a gamestop in it, so I decided to just preorder at gamestop.
They are still doing the offer. I just registered mine. Didn't get the popup. Called nintendo support. Took two minutes. Then as soon as I got off the phone got the email.
I just called nintendo's customer support (its 3:18 pacific here) and they got me a cd. They haven't run out!
