Zelda pre-order case available for purchase soon?

Reader Andrew is in love with his new Phantom Hourglass case. You know, the one that Aussie EB Games' were giving to customers who pre-ordered the game? Well, he was kind enough to take some shots of the case for all of us. But, even better, he gave us hope that we may actually be able to purchase it, if we wanted one and live outside of his country.

Turns out, Bigben Interactive GmbH manufactures the case out of Germany. In heading to their website, it looks as if the shop area is still under construction, but the case is definitely listed there. So, here's to hoping we can get one ourselves in the future.

As for the case, Andrew asked that we host the images since his bandwidth isn't as plentiful as he'd like it to be. So, we made a gallery. Be sure to hit it up below.

It's nice but not worth $25 if that's what they're thinking of asking for it.

That's most likely AUD$25... which at the moment is something like USD$22 - Go little aussie dollar!

Anyhow... I'd probably pay $15-20 for it, but not $25. It's not uncommon for free things which are "valued at" a certain price to be a little exaggerated...

That does look like a nice case, though. Makes me regret pre-ordering the US version online!

(should be arriving any day now... damn slow shipping)

After looking at the pictures, I recognize that Zelda case. I have the same case. I bought it last year for my PSP. It's just a painted aluminum case which I bought for $12. It even has the same mesh pouch on the inside of the top lid.

My brother bought this game like Tuesday I think and after playing it I have to say I'm impressed.
I didn't think it would work all that well with stylus only controls but Nintendo pulled it off.

When I was out getting screen protectors, we saw two zelda cases. One was fake leather with a TP logo embroidered on the front (20$). And another cheap plastic one (for more price! 25$)
I imagine this one would go for the same. The aluminum looks nicer/better quality.
