Thanks I will give it a go, after I get twilight princess and played through skyward sword. .
I heard the criticisms lashed out at Skyward Sword and was turning my sights to twilight princess. Twilight princess narrative seemed to be more attractive to me as I love gothic fiction. However as both games are similar in gameplay, i decided to go with romanticised skyward sword as it offers better controls and harder bosses to defeat. In addition to the fact that the new Wii U version is on the horizon and wind waker is coming this fall I am looking forward in giving skyward sword a go.
New Wii U bundle and special edition figure...

I saw that and instantly went "Oooooh, shiny bright new thing!"
But then saw that you get a coupon for a free download for the game, and an electronic version of Hyrule Historia.
I'm glad that it wasn't that tempting to me, otherwise my wife would be signing papers to commit me to an asylum!
I don't have the dates exactly on hand, but isn't it coming up on the 10th anniversary of the release of Wind Waker?
I wish I was buying that special edition version. I just cant afford to with the sheer amount I am spending on games this autumn/winter. I know a lot of us are in the same boat at this moment.
Same here...
You should see on NintendoAge, the hard-core Zelda Collectors are getting them to keep New/Sealed...
It is hard being so obsessed...
Or you could sell it for quite a bit in a few years when you know collector's and new Zelda fans want to pick it up but weren't collecting at the time ...
The Ganondorf Limited Edition is available exclusively from GAME in the UK for 60 quid. I've just put my pre-order in.... thanks gkarris, I could have missed this otherwise
Message me, here, and I'll send you money to ship it to me when you're ready to move...Problem solved.

np - glad to help a Videogame Collector out....
I'm sorta tempted - the figure looks absolutely gorgeous.
If I change my mind, after they sell out, I bet I can get at least $60 for just the figure and packaging, making the game free for me...
GameStop is now officially sold out of the Limited Edition Game/Figure Bundle - seems that this will be extremely limited based on how fast that sold out ... or there was just crazy high interest - either way a collector's item for sure in the years to come.

D*** those eBay scammers...

Hopefully its made by a reputable figure maker, but usually these things have the same or lessor quality than a low tier prize figure. Amazingly Milla in the Tale of Xilla CE was made by Banpresto and is of decent/good quality for a CE figure, my expectations were low so I was quite happy with the quality lol.
I didn't pick this up because I was a bit freaked out I would be getting a cheap toy rather than a collector quality figure. I will still get the game though
I'm rather picky about figures, I have a decent sized collection of collectible quality figures made by reputable figure artists and makers.
For reference, these are actual collectible figures (my collection). http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/PSXBatou
Finally decided to order a Wii U (got it from Newegg). The Wind Waker bundle looks so awesome, I am seriously excited to revisit this now 10 year old game. I remember when it first came out, I wasn't that into gaming anymore, and Wind Waker totally sucked me back into Nintendo.
If use the Wii U only for Wind Waker and whatever new Zelda HD that comes out, it'll be totally worth it!

Zelda has only ever lagged in sound in general.
I would buy if they made it sound like this
Dragon Roost Island for Orchestra

That's awesome - I'm going through and playing all of the 3D Zeldas for the first time. Never did that as a kid, but just finished Majora's Mask on my N64 and am excited to experience Wind Waker for the first time on my Wii U.
You did play A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time though (and The Minish Cap if you liked Link's Awakening), right?
Well, let me know when they remake Gargoyle's Quest.
It was my first Zelda game I've ever played. After this game I fell in love with the series!
Wind Waker was #1 on my list but got to #2 after I played Skyward Sword.
Game in the UK still has them, plus the UK version has a nice dome cover, and the US version does not:

I tried ordering from Game, and all seems to go through. £65 to the US - that's about $105 plus CC foreign exchange fees... I held off.
Nonetheless, cheaper than what the eBay scammers are charging - around $120 last I checked.
I don't think you can play the game, though, as the Wii U is region locked...
