So I registered the game on Club Nintendo, no pop-up. What the fucks the deal?? I want my soundtrack.

I was using the firefox browser.

We need people who got their soundtrack to confirm what browser they were using.

If they're already out they might as well have not advertised it at all, because that's awfully stupid.

I would argue that it's a system seller.

Couple of my friends were holding out on a 3DS until this, and I know some people here are getting a one for it.

Only five copies at my target. Three were gone by the time I left.

I also registered and got no popup for the soundtrack. Using firefox 4.0.1. Time to figure out who to e-mail on the site.

Urgh I didn't think to register the game with a different browser.

I've noticed before Nintendo websites having a problem with Google Chrome.

Wow, a lot of the mechanics in this game has not aged very well at all. Some are downright bad, like the camera/lock on system that only seem to work 1/3 of the time. Combined with the sneaking parts and some cramped corridors makes for one frustrating experience.

For what it's worth, there's a 99-post topic on the official nintendo forums with people saying they never got the prompt to get the soundtrack, and people on CAG are reporting the same mixed results.

I sent an e-mail to http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/webform.jsp, and there's also a customer service number (1-800-255-3700) for order problem solving if you'd like to go that route.

Hopefully they have more than four copies of the soundtrack lying around and will get them out to everyone.

Registered mine soon as I woke up, no problems (and surprisingly no lag on the website).

Entered code, then it brought me to the survey. Then I got the message abotu the Soundtrack.

EDIT: Using Firefox 4.0.1 with all the standard popup blockers and it still worked fine.

Weird that some with the exact same browser versions are having issues, maybe it's some add-ons or extensions that are interfering? Either way, definitely contact Nintendo support.

I had a final question in my survey asking if I purchased early because of the soundtrack (etc), but I didn't get any messages or options indicating that it was ordered. E-mailing Ninty.

This, and WTF Nintendo? I got my copy early and registered it this morning at 8:30 EST so either they only had 5 of these things or collectively the entire internet got the game the early and said "hey lets fuck with this guy" and the took every available copy of the OST in the window between 3AM (12AM PST) and 8AM (5AM PST) while I choose to sleep.

Mine opens around 10, but you might be able to find out if you just call your store.
They should have one of those default "our stores are open from this time to this time" if it's before store hours.

Filled out the survey and didn't get a CD pop up, was using Google Chrome as a browser :/. This sucks, but at least I have OoT to help ease the pain. Sent the support line an email though.

Turn around and go out the same way you went in. In Hyrule, they have magical teleporters beneath holes apparently :). Go back to the town that way.

Show the letter Zelda gave you to the guard at the gates to the mountain to open up the path.

edit:
Oops slight misunderstanding

Tip for dealing with the "things that made you freeze":
Play the sun's song to freeze them.

You just completed a side-quest to get this tune, this is not the main quest.
Stay in the village and talk to the soldier garding a door. Maybe something Zelda gave you will help here...

Edit: of course beaten 3 or 4 times :)

For what it's worth, people on CAG (aka a group much fussier about pre-order bonuses) have been calling the support number about the pre-order bonus.

One got a "we're probably out should have gone to a 24 hour store" line (most likely bullmess since some people are still successfully registering their copy and getting the popup, another CSR simply said that it's been a big problem this morning.

Also some are speculating the popup is flash based, so if you're paranoid, don't try it on your iphone or ipad (or 3ds, hurr de hurr hurr).

Me at about 9AM when I realized this was not working properly


Also its definitely a flash based window as I would have seen the grey warning bar at the top of my firefox browser.

Never seen so many people get worked up for a free soundtrack. You know someone will rip it and upload it, within minutes of it's release anyway.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Well, for lack of a 3DS I'm replaying the original which I never actually finished all by myself (but watched others play a lot of it). Is there a way, through emulation or whatever other means, to get it to run at a decent frame rate, without speeding up the whole game? It's pretty annoying with its 20 fps and drops on top of that so if there is a way I might as well go for it now that I'm relatively early still (2 stones down and kinda stuck, lol I suck). If I ever get a 3DS I'm definitely getting this too, the frame rate alone seems worth it even if there were no other upgrades (which there seem to be a lot anyway). Other than that the game still feels modern though, what amazing design. Here's hoping for SS.
