I never even got the survey! When I registered my game, I got a message saying the game was already registered and the pin # could only be used once! I was like WTF, its a brand new game, never opened. Since I only live a couple miles from the Gamestop, I called the guy and traded the game for another one, thinking maybe the pin #s were duplicated.
When I got home and tried to register the new OoT game, I got a message saying I already registered the game! I am like WTF again! I checked my acct and sure enought OoT 3D was listed with all my other games. But I never was able to do the survey, therefore I never got the popup.
So...I made a new Club Nintendo Acct and tried registering the newer game and I actually got the survey this time, but not the popup for the sdsoundtrack. I am like
WTF even lounder and more pissed off. By now I am hot, so I checked the message boards and I saw where others were having the problem. So I called Nintendo and explained to the rep. about not getting the survey or popup on the first game I registered. I didn't mention about going back and getting another game.
Anyways, later this afternoon around 5:30pm, I got this email from an Elliot Teeman:
Hello,
I'm sorry to hear that you had technical issues when trying to place your order for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Soundtrack CD.
Using the information you provided, I was able to locate your Club Nintendo account. I see that you qualify for this promotion, so I have taken the liberty of placing an order for the soundtrack CD (it will be sent to the address on your account).
The next time you login to your account, you can click “Reward Order Inquiry” on your Club Nintendo homepage to view your order status (please allow 30 minutes for this order to appear in your Club Nintendo account).
We will begin shipping the soundtrack CD the week of July 5. Please allow 1-2 weeks from the ship date for delivery.
Sincerely,
Nintendo of America Inc.
Elliot TeemanI also got my confirmation email about my reward being processed. I did reply to Mr Teeman about not being able to take the survey and that I would like my 40 coins as well. I have not heard back from him.
Now, the game I have is not the one that was registered with my normal Club Nintendo acct., but I tried registering it with the new Club Nintendo acct. I wasn't trying to cheat to get 2 CDs, I just wanted the one that was due to me. So, I guess I will try re-registering it and if someone here actually gets screwed out of not getting one, I will be happy to send it off to you, of course that is if I actually get this game to register properly this time. Other than that, more than likely I will either keep the CD and sell it later on for a high price or I might see how much I can get out of it now... but I will still wait a month or so to sell it, cause I know alot of people try selling limited stuff like this online.
Also, the rep. I talked to this morning said there was 50,000 copies of the CD to be sent out. Even though that is alot, I would how many people in the US actually pre-ordered and bought the game today?
