Wasn't available for sale, doesn't count.

In that case, are we to count the Legend of Zelda:  Collectors Edition for the Gamecube in a complete Gamecube collection?  It was only available in the US as a give away from Nintendo Power or for a limited time you could send away for it with the purchase of a new Gamecube.  It was never available for retail sale.

Same thing to some extent with the Ocarina of Time Master Quest release.  It was offered as a bonus for preordering Wind Waker, though for a very limited time in certain regions it came packaged with Wind Waker, though that was a disc only copy.  Should we consider that part of a complete Gamecube collection?  Should just the disc count?



zelda collector's edition came bundled with systems

Since it's a special thing and never had a retail release in any form, I would say no. I would say only retail games count and anything else is just bonus stuff to have.

When I bought my Game Cube the Zelda: Collector's Edition was included right in the box. It was available for purchase right then and there. You had to buy a Game Cube to get it, but you still could purchase it. The Master Quest, well, thats a different story. If it came packaged with Windwaker, then you could purchase it, and it counts.

I stand corrected.

for me, I'm not big on variants. I'm currently aiming for an eventual complete US Dreamcast set. But I don't feel I need to have Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure (Sega All-Stars) and Sonic Adventure Limited Edition... just one copy of the game means I have that game. Y'know?

I have a list of the last 62 NES games I need to complete my set. NWC is not on the list (and I don't own one obviously).

Wasn't available for sale, doesn't count.

Agreed not for sale to the public doesn't count.

My current goal is to obtain all the licensed retail releases so NWC doesn't qualify for me. If I were to go for all official Nintendo releases I'd count it for sure though.

I agree with this sentiment. I will buy a variant if I come across it and it's a good deal, but I'm not going to seek them out unless its something I really want (like if I want ALL Zelda variants, etc)..
