If you own the game(s), inside the box where the instruction booklet and whatnot is, there should be an extra piece of paper that has on the back a number for you to type in at the site nintendo has for inputting codes.

Ehm when you buy a game, ALWAYS check that you get the card... I didn't get one with ED.

What do you mean? Only the newer games so far come with the card that has the PIN number. All my past games never had one for obvious reasons.

Unlesssss....since your in Europe, you have the Stars program thing where the games etc...come with the "star card"

Ehm yeah, we've had the system since launch.
We can get GameBoy Players and GameBoys with it. Posters of Mario and Zelda, with Miyamoto's signature. Stuff like that, it's just WAY expensive. You'd have to own every game to get the most expensive things.

I really have no problem at all with Nintendo trying to promote other poducts and adding a special free bonus with it. But the people who do not want to purchase these extra items are being forced to do so (ok, I know Nintendo isn't literally forcing people to buy it, but you know what I mean). And sure, it may only be a little $20 subscription. But you know what? I don't want any damn Nintendo Power subscription.


It's odd how Microsoft makes almost no profit at all from the Xbox, yet they continue to produce it, adding wave after wave of new features, more online support and additions, and other quality things such as attaining good third party developers to make great games for the system.

It is almost impossible to make a profit with a dedicated online network this gen.

PS2 and Xbox online network users: 1.5 million
PS2 and Xbox combined worldwide install base: 60 million

That's 2.5% of PS2 and Xbox owners going online with their consoles. Strange how a company not gaining profit from something would continue to support it.

And Nintendo, the company making the highest profit intake of the three companies, chooses to carrying on in ways which are more beneficial to them rather than their customers.

Companies want money, I agree. But companies also want to make their customers happy. A happy customer will continue to purchase their products and support them.

+Rep because you are right. We can even go back to the example of Nintendo selling Rare. Nintendo is all about the money. Microsoft and Sony believe that increasing the quality of their product at all costs is important and that it will mean success in the long run, Nintendo used to think this way, but now Nintendo cares about marketability first, and quality second. Maybe they don't want to end up like Sega; respected, but dead.

I just checked this "bonus disk" thing out today.

No way Im going to buy it. I already own every game on it.

[Canyarion]

I tried to play ALttP on my SNES, but the controller is all screwed up.
Oh wait, LttP isn't on the disc. Anyway. I'm buying Mario Kart and 1080 so I get the disc for free.

Does it matter which Nintendo Power magazine you subscribe too? I just purchased the one with the Fire Emblem picture on the cover, but it says nothing about the Zelda Bonus Disks on the subscription form. Does Nintendo just ship you the game with the subscription? Or am I looking at the wrong Nintendo Power?

*is confused

You have to subscribe online to get the bonus disc, I think. When you subscribe online, there's a part where you pick your "free gift." The Zelda disc should be kind of near the bottom of the list. Make sure you pick the actual disc, not the player's guide.

Well, if they shipped it ups they obviously shipped it ground (since you don't have it yet) and ups isn't delivering ground packages on Friday. Sorry.

It actually SHOULD have been hear Wednesday. Washington (where I assume it shipped from) is 4 days to Chicago, so I assume it's the same for Washington to Hicktown IL. I noticed you posted at 6:35, UPS can deliver as late as 7 or 8 PM.


Course, if they shipped it via the post office it could arrive in 2023 and it's still technically not "late" and there's ZERO guarantees on when it will get there. Complete crapshoot. But the good news with the post office is that they DO deliver this Friday cause I'm waiting for something too.

It's too bad they dont give you a little more information, they dont even tell you if they shipped it USPS or UPS or whatever. I didnt know UPS didnt deliver friday...I did know that US Mail does...my dad works there.
