Importers denied: Ocarina of Time 3D soundtrack CD for AU buyers only

As suspected, if youve imported Ocarina of Time – your code wont work

With the early (import) release of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D last week we warned that picking up a European copy of the game might not get you the soundtrack CD. Now Nintendo Australia has updated the information regarding the redemption of the CD to include the following;

Offer valid only to Australian or New Zealand residents who register The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time 3D released by Nintendo Australia Pty Ltd.

In other words, if you didn’t buy an Australian copy of Ocarina of Time 3D, you’re not getting the CD from Nintendo Australia. Which, you know is fair.

There was some speculation (even by us) that the codes may work from European copies as some other Nintendo 3DS games which include Club Nintendo codes work on our store. However keeping with the trend, first party Nintendo games do not.

Still no word yet as to when we’ll be able to register the games, but we’re hoping it’s the 30th. The ’release date’ for the game.
