GAME won’t be offering Zelda: A Link Between Worlds treasure chest with pre-orders
Nintendo UK made a big deal out of its new pre-order bonus – the musical treasure chest – for The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. In fact, series producer Eiji Aonuma and Nintendo president Satoru Iwata went out of their way to promote the item in a special Vine clip.
But here’s the thing – we’re now hearing GAME won’t be offering the item, even though Nintendo named it as the retailer you could obtain the treasure chest from.

It’s unclear how the pre-order item will be handled at present. Perhaps it’ll shift to another retailer?
