Nintendo har for tiden gode dager i USA. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker fortsetter å kapre ivrige sjeler, og giganten kunne i går annonsere at forhåndsbestillingene på spillet nå ligger på rundt 560.000 eksemplarer.
Jerry Madaio hos EB Games sa følgende om Zelda:
"The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is the most anticipated videogame in Electronics Boutique's history based on our pre-orders, even outpacing last year's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. And the number of pre-orders is still growing! Clearly, this game's appeal is so wide, that it is a 'must-have' for any Nintendo GameCube owner."
George Harrison knyttet følgende uttalelse til annonseringen:
"Given the history of the Zelda series, we expected overwhelming interest, and this solidifies the ever-growing phenomenon and attraction gamers have to the characters and story. It doesn't matter which system you own, gamers across the world respect and anticipate the launch of any Zelda game and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is a killer application that will move hardware."
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker er på vei mot tordende suksess!
