Countdown to...

[pichu04]

Ill probably get Skyward sword for christmas of course. This will probably be around my 11th zelda game.

[Skyground95]

I'm gonna pre-order this game at Gamestop tommorow...

Also, gametrailers.com got an exclusive trailer:

The demo for Skyward Sword alone is extremely popular -

I saw that thread, but nothing turned up when I googled it.  How did people get the demo?

Seeing as how I pre-ordered this game, I almost feel entitled to download it when it hits the 'net.  They have had my money for like two months now, I should be able to get the game before it hits shelves (or in my case, before the mail guy delivers it to my mailbox)

[goemon_guy]

Same. I'd link to it, but you know, I don't want to get in trouble.

I saw it on GBATemp, then looked around.

I can't link you to the website that I got it from, can I? That'd be against the rules, because it seems that they also host other ISOs and stuff...

Just keep looking on Google, and you'll find it, otherwise ;)

Ah, I was wondering if this was somehow legit, like you could buy a demo from somewhere.  Your response pretty much explains that it's not.

I wonder how this got released into the wild.

Anyway, looks like I have about 12 days to beat Borderlands...

[goemon_guy]

I dunno... How does stuff like this normally happen?

My guess is that it was a demo for the game at some local gamestore that people can just go in and play and try it out.

Someone probably got a hold of it, and ripped it or something, and they put it online. (Then again, that would have to be an employee of a gamestore, and they could get in alot of legal trouble; or possibly someone stole the game disc? o.o)

PAL version though eh? Curious as to they didn't rip the NTSC one.

lol... maybe someone brought his harddrive and sd card and used an inattentive moment:
Installed the HBC and Cios on the gamestop´s Wii, ripped it off to his harddrive using a USB Loader and deleted all that homebrew stuff and quit.
Then uploaded it to the net. That´s probably the crazy shit that happens nowadays all the time in different forms. And yes, one can do this without an internet connection... :P

[Arudo]

Well I swung by my regular EB games and paid off the whole game... now I must wait 10 days to just pick it up. Nargh.

[Arudo]

9 Days!

Joystiq just put out a review.  A note at the bottom says the review was performed on a retail copy of SS.  http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/11/the-legend-of-zelda-skyward-sword-review/

And now Glitch has some codes on the database for this game.

Sad thing is I don't think I have time to play... much
Time to take sick leave
