They put a lot of special little touches like the Club Nintendo logo on the back and stuff like that. It's also very authentic. Anyone else manage to scoop one of these up? I did, in that same time frame. I haven't opened it yet. I need to, if for no other reason than to remove the battery. I was thinking about not opening it and collecting it in that sense, but just said fuck it. It is surprisingly a ton of fun to play still. There is no way to pause the game or turn it off as you would imagine. From what I understand, the battery comes preloaded, which wasn't the case with the original G&W, so if you don't open it, sooner or later the battery will expire and slowly corrode the circuits if not removed.

Yea.

It has one of those plastic strips in between the battery and the circuits, so you have to pull out the little tab first before the thing even turns on and makes a connection.

Also, has anyone that qualified for the OoT soundtrack actually received it yet?

I can't wait for the soundtrack, how can there be so much /unreleased/ material?

Oh boy, finally got an email saying that they are sending out my soundtrack.

And....I finally got my soundtrack.

It is very whimsical indeed, excellent quality on these tracks.

Although, mine must have gone through Hell in shipping. The jewel case was cracked along the front and the little plastic part that holds the disc in place was cracked off so the CD was flying around loose I guess. Fortunately there was no damage to the CD and this will be fixed as soon as I get my hands on a new jewel case.

Another thing, the track-listing seems all off from what the track order actually is, and there is no telling what track you are listening to if you consult your music player as /everything/ is still in Japanese, lol.
