From the 26/1/16 to 9/2/17 Nintendo eshop will have on sale classic Zelda titles in preparation for the release of breath of the wild.
All you need to do is have a my Nintendo account which is free to set up.
I was just getting ready for a sale on the GBC games.

If only it were guaranteed that these would all work on Switch on Day One *sigh*
At the very least all up until the GBA games should.

Got the Oracle games as I've not played them before. Was going to get Link To The Past on 3DS until I realised that the SNES games cost more on 3DS than the WiiU, bit of a joke that.

Finally got some of the games to let me buy, I have a 2DS and it doesn't seem to want to let you have the SNES game, says it's only for the 3DS.

Don't give Nintendo any of your money on eshop until they finally announce what their procedures will be in transferring games between consoles. Horrible company in this regard. Having to buy the same game 3 times for 3 consoles. Not right at all.

You could transfer over VC games from Wii to Wii U

Yeah I'm slightly worried bout this too
I've spent way to much digitally on my wii u I'm not gonna be happy if I have to pay again

It now gives me the discount, but is now saying I'm not linked to a compatible device, I'll look tonight.

I signed up to mynintendo earlier but haven't recieved a code, any ideas on how to get the code to come through.
migavupe to struder
26 Jan 17#59
Code for what?
If you're waiting for a discount code you don't get one, you get to select the discount when you're checking out on the store.

Settings then there should be an account option at the top iirc

I think you might need to either do it through the store or the settings page

AHH just bought a 2nd game after OOT with a discount seems they changed it.

how do you link it on the 3ds?
mocmocamoc
26 Jan 17#52
Just spent an hour trying and failing to get the discount, after putting £25 credit in there. Any ideas?
It is claiming that I need to have an account and link it, done both as far as I can see
yarkiebrown to mocmocamoc
26 Jan 17#53
You linked it on your 3ds?

I've got my Nintendo account all set up and linked but the games are still coming up at full price, even when I go to purchase they are. any ideas?

26 Jan 17#41
How exactly does the discount apply, I appear to have logged in to my nintendo and linked it with my ID but I do not see any applied discount? What should the Wind Waker HD cost with the discount for example (i'm seeing £19.99)

Just came to ask the same question. I've created a mynintendo account and linked ti
to my nintendo id but prices are still full on eshop? Let me know if you work it out before I do! :laughing:

It appears as though it was a bug that you could only buy one game, fixed now! :stuck_out_tongue:

Bug's a nice way to say Nintendo messed up lol, as they put the wrong promo code on :smiley:

im assuming I can put multiple items in my basket and get the 30% off?

It would have been nice if they'd mentioned that in the press release up front. Their loss.

This sale is a mess. My 'mynintendo' account gave me a link to transfer me to sales, I purchased one item on sale and now the link has disappeared. Logging into the 3DS/WiiU store I don't know if the titles are reduced or not. is Phantom Hourgalss supposed to be £8.99? Or is that with the sale? Seems high to me.

I used my discount to buy Wind Water for £14. Not bad at all.

Well i picked up the Zelda Anniversary Theme for 300 points man has that theme got an EPIC sound track to it, also OOT then BLAM all prices reset to full price REALLY NINTENDO you literally haven't got a clue have you.

so angry about this. wanted 4 games got one

26 Jan 17#37
Shame it's a single use only voucher. I agree it's misleading that it comes across as a sale in Nintendo's word and tbh I don't see why it shouldn't be a sale.
RidleyDeckard
26 Jan 171#35
Not really a sale then, more a single use voucher. Some one in the Eurogamer comments said the same thing, just wish Nintendo had made it clear.
chocobogamer to RidleyDeckard
26 Jan 17#36
Really doesnt make it clear. If anything it invites multiple purchases
ahern
26 Jan 17#34
It looks like it's one use only. Hopefully a mistake. Take my money Nintendo!
RidleyDeckard
26 Jan 17#32
On my 3DS and the e-shop website. Just bought a £25 ecard to buy Zelda Ocarina of Time and Link Between Worlds, got OoT and then all the prices reset to full price.
chocobogamer to RidleyDeckard
26 Jan 17#33
Wish id waited to buy me 2nd code :disappointed:
RidleyDeckard
26 Jan 17#30
Same here, it does say 30% off every Zelda game WTF!

Online or on the device?

Ok so bought one game. Discount no longer showing. Single use? Wth Nintendo

I haven't set up a My Nintendo account yet. Really reluctant too as the whole thing is so poor. Not quite a boycott but not far of it I guess, as even a year or whatever it has been since the Club Nintendo rewards scheme shut down I remain disappointed. That was a good scheme with some really cracking exclusive items, that really gave Nintendo an extra edge over the mainstream stuff.

Got both of them in the last sale, but not played them yet. Working through LA first.

Still showing full price for me? Who has the direct link to the online store?

Finally, good excuse to get LTTP on 3DS. Then I'll have every mainline console and handheld Zelda game up to and including MM.
Also LTTP is still the best Zelda game.

I think you'll find Link's Crossbow Training to be the epitome of LoZ games :P

I actually picked up a copy of that from a charity shop last year and haven't got around to playing it yet.
Might give it a go tonight. Expecting big things! Will report back later to confirm if it is indeed the best Zelda.

GQ man with some knowledge probs there. MM selects! Wont happen, two zelda titles is enough otherwise they wont release something they should as a selects title. Got 'lucky' and paid £22 for MM used.
bigmanaw1
25 Jan 17#17
OOT is available on select. Been look for MM but no joy for any less then 28.00.

25 Jan 171#16
I've been waiting to jump on Majora's Mask 3D but I didn't like the game enough to pay £30 for it. I'm just going to be patient and hope it becomes part of the selects like Ocarina and LBW.

Just to clarify, A Link to the Past (SNES) available for the New 3DS via Europe eShop this Thursday, yes? If so, hell yes!

I'm hoping they'll announce something before the end of the sale. Would probably buy some of these if they'll be compatible.

Gbc games are alright but gba games should and could have been pushed through. Emulation issues could have been dealt with the games worked on an ambassador edition 3ds for god sake they can work on my new3ds! Minish cap on the wiiu? that makes sense.

25 Jan 171#9
If only I didn't already own everything! :stuck_out_tongue: Still, I'll take a quick look tomorrow in case anything of interest appears.

The sale starts on 26/01, so you'll have to wait another day :smiley:

25 Jan 17#1
Hot! Just annoying that Majora's Mask 3D is 39.99 so still gonna be around 28 for a 3DS game on sale... but Twilight at that price and the Selects at a third off's a steal :smile:
