The Legend of Zelda 3DS Soundtrack Snafu.

[thegamezmaster]

Anyone else run into problems trying to register their copy to get the Soundtrack CD? First there was the website maintenance problem, then when you were able to get registering after going through that, the soundtrack cd order part was supposed to come up and you'd order the cd. No such luck. And this was right after it went on sale at Walmart. Thanks a lot Nintendo for nothing. A whole night shot. Anyone else have similar problems?

Yeah, I just registered it about ten minutes ago, but no CD prompt. There's about a dozen different active threads on the Nintendo support forums, and the NOA Mods are involved in them, so they are aware of the issue.

I'm not all that surprised by it, especially since Club Nintendo always seems to crack up under high traffic situations (end of calendar year, special offers, etc.). I just think it's odd that they would bother putting up a prompt asking if you want the CD... of COURSE you do!

I'm sure it'll turn out fine, though it is a bit annoying.

I registered for the CD about 3 hours ago. I was so afraid of getting an error, but I was lucky to get the CD prompt, then got confirmation. It will be shipped within 1-2 weeks. I hope Nintendo fixes this for everyone else...

I got the offer but after clicking on it ended up with a bunch of error messages. I hope this gets fixed up cause I was pretty excited about this..

I heard something in Europe that error messages were coming up because all 2000 slots for CDs were filled, I wonder if the US is getting more than that or not?

That's not correct. They will be producing more than enough to cover requests, at least for the near future.

I have read an article from someone who spoke to a Nintendo spokesperson at E3 that Nintendo pressed enough CDs to cover pre-orders and the copies that would sell in first few weeks... I just don't think they expected everyone to register their copies all at once (though maybe they should have )

I had the same error message and followed up with an email. I'm just going to try and be patient and hope they get the situation resolved. Anytime you put "limited supply" of anything you should expect a high volume of reponses. Nintendo is usually good at customer service, so I really hope my email suffices. Their phone lines are jammed just in case anyone was thinking to call.

[joshnickerson]

I just got a pretty quick reply from the webform submission I sent in, and the rep already checked my account and saw that I had registered the game, all he requested was my shipping info so they could ship the CD out and asked what browser I was using (I guess so they can figure out what happened).

Register The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D game and complete the registration survey to qualify.

Everyone who completes a survey for The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D game by midnight, Pacific Time on Monday June 20, 2011 will receive the soundtrack CD. You will receive an email confirmation within 7 days to confirming we have placed your order.

Please ensure the address on your account is your valid mailing address, so we can send the CD to you.

Glad to see they got it under control and I'll still be able to get one.

Damn. I honestly assumed they were just going to wait a week or so to see who registered then start pressing the CDs based on how many took up the offer, but I guess that wasn't the case. In other words, if you got the game and you want the CD, better hurry your ass up.

[Suikoman444]

Very true, get on there now if you want it. What would upset me though, is if I bought on Amazon or somewhere else online. There's no mail on Sunday so they won't get it until Monday and therefore no CD.

[GrandAmChandler]

I registered mine at 11am EST, no problems with the process. CD is on the way! 50 tracks bay-bee!

[Urzu402]

I registered my game and got the sound track offer just fine, but to the people who didn't, I hear you should contact Nintendo's customer support and talk to them about it and they'll get you the sound track.

I suspect this message on the website is the doing of the weekend crew and that once the full office comes in tomorrow morning, this offer will go on well beyond the 20th. Those CDs cost less than a buck to press including packaging and it's not worth the headache to potentially offend everyone who won't get their game from Amazon or other retailers until later this week.

Grabbing my preorder tonight, hope all goes smoothly.

That's what I did. Kept trying till I got through, the lady took my info and a little bit later I got an email saying mine was all taken care of and will ship the week of July 5. What great customer service! Yeah!

I was able to register the PIN and take the survey, but of course no prompt of order history with confirmation was given to me. Being worried, I called Nintendo and the rep told me that everything looked great (verified my registration), except for the order was never placed.

The rep manually created an order and provided me with a confirmation email and PO#.

All is well now!

According to Nintendo's website, all the CDs are now sold out...
