Okay, I have a weird question for you guys.

Ocarina of Time launched when I was a kid, and my dad picked it up on launch day. They had some kind of promo where the first few people who bought it also got a Triforce necklace. It was square/rectangular with a raised triforce on it.

I've been trying to find a picture of this promo necklace for hours and I can't even tell if it fucking exists.

Does anybody else remember this shit or was this just a local giveaway and I've been telling people about some launch promo that Nintendo did that wasn't even them and was just the store I got it at? Or am I just imagining that this ever existed, since I lost it within a year?

If you can find it I'd appreciate a picture so I can feel like I'm not going crazy.

Can’t find it. I bought in a gamecon some years ago. It looks like a military dog tag, but with the triforce marked in and a Nintendo copyright text on the back, dated 1998.

I remember it came with a gold bag and temporary tattoos but no necklace.

Reminder that there are people who are so retarded that they think Skulltula is pronounced "skull-TOO-luh" and don't understand it's a play on the word "tarantula." I didn't think such a level of stupidity was possible until I watched a stream some years back and heard multiple people say it. Truly fucking amazing.

But do you pronounce "mischievous" correctly?

i looked it up and apparently i use a dated, nonstandard accent for it

>>8303980
Many people say "mis-chee-vee-us" but there's no vowel before the "ous" at the end so it's "mis-chi-vus"

Does anyone remember the rumor where if you jump off the rainbow bridge 100 times, you can play as Mario?

I don't remember getting a bag, but I did get the gold cart and the necklace. I lived in a small town at the time, and pretty sure we got it at K-mart which is basically a dead store nowadays so who knows maybe it was just some shit that they did.

I got the gold cart and it game with a XXL t-shirt.
