I checked my account last night, to see the status of my Zelda WW order (4 copies), only to find they've only got me down for 2 bonus disc's. :pft:
4 Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker - Coming Soon $71.95 $287.80
1 Charge $14.25 $14.25
2 PROMOTIONAL DISC: Ocarina of Time/Ocarina of Time: Master Quest $.00 $.00
I've emailed them, but had no response yet.
Anyone else here pre-ordered Zelda from them checked their orders lately?

same here mate,
ordered 2 copies, am only getting one bonus disk. They must only be fulfilling half of the preorders with OOT.
Pisser :pft:

Hmmm... I ordered 1 copy, and have 1 bonus disc. Guess that'll teach me to panic buy off The Bay...

Moosey – a mate has first dibs on it (if it arrives). If he doesn't want it, then sure.

I got a bonus disc from eBay yesterday and will be getting one from DVDBO with my Zelda order. So I'll have one spare at some point... though seeing as I will also end up with two copies of Zelda, maybe I'll keep them together and sell both together...

Well, the copy I bought on EBay seems to have gone missing in the post so I'm chuffed with DVDBO at the moment :happy:
DVDboxoffice deleted my order at the beginneg of march, despite the fact that they told me I would be able to update my credit card information any time before Zelda's release date. Originally my order was down for December 8th, the re-order they processed was in march :(
I'm really pissed off by this :( I have never played Zelda OOT, so I was really looking forwards to playing the bonus disc.
grrr...

Just checked mine (ordered 11th Dec) and i have a bonus disc too :)
Even better than that, i got one through the post today, from the US, which i bought off of ebay for just £13.
Well pleased, now i can play one of em, and also keep one sealed in the loft, to sell when i retire 8)

I was under the impression that keeping it in Canadian $ was cheaper than being charged in American $. So what's cheaper?

Canadian - $63.95 = £27.56
US - $47.97 = 30.53
So Canadian dollars have a more favourable exchange rate at the mo.
http://www.xe.com has an up to the minute exchange rate calculator :happy:

Well here's their reply -
Hello
We do apologize the When ordering that many
copies the bonus discs are
being alloted 2-1. So if your friends cancel
their orders, well say two
friends cancel so you are getting 2 games? then
your bonus allotment would
jump down to 1 bonus disc.
Please let me know what you would like to do.
Thanks
Didn't tell us that did they.
I've sent another - rather angry, but not abusive - reply.

That will teach you not to be gready, ordering four games and expecting to get 4 bonus disks is a joke when people who only want 1 are not all going to get them.

Preorder now and become eligible for a special, limited-edition playable disk featuring two games: The Legend Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest!-- an updated version of the game which was never released outside of Japan.

fraggy,
If you ordered before January (or even during or after in some cases) then you will be getting one. They probably haven't got round to writing it on your order form or have just forgot. I only got mine added yesterday, just send an email to check what's up.

At the bottom of my invoice for Skies of Arcadia Legends it said '40 out of 42' which I'm predicting is how many of the said item were ordered since I ordered a week before it was released. It will be interesting to see how many Zelda's were ordered :blink:

Yeah its Canadian, which is about £30.

stfu what if he was ordering them for 4 different people who all wanted the disk
in any case FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE
I managed to get two bonus disks, I put in two seperate orders just in case one botched up

You guys are all lucky!
DVDBO CANCELLED my wind waker pre order!
no e-mail to say why just an e-mail to say it had been cancelled
cancelled despite ordering on the 27th of DECEMBER last year
POS company will NEVER order from them again
up the creek no paddle and no zelda either so count all your blessings whether you got the game or borth bonus and game be thankful

Words cannot describe how angry i am right now.....
A little bird told me the PAL release will not be a limited edition, they will all come with the disc :o

Have you recieved your skies of arcadia yet? I ordered it after it was released and I got mine a few weeks ago :s Dont understand that one
amaan
27-03-2003, 08:12 PM
Yeah I got mine a couple of weeks ago as well. What I was saying is that I'm guessing the 40/42 stood for how many orders there were, and since I ordered late 40th in line sounds about right.
