Japan receives special Zelda Spirit Tracks stylus with purchase

by Alexander Sliwinski { Nov 4th 2009 at 10:45AM }

Japanese purchasers of The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks will receive a transparent quill stylus as a gift when they put down their yen for the game. AndriaSang reports that the stylus will be given out on launch day as an "early buyer bonus," but there's no need to pre-order.

If the plastic quill seems familiar, it's because Nintendo used it as a bribe back in 2007 for registering Phantom Hourglass and filling out a survey. Spirit Tracks choo-choos into retail on December 7. We're currently unaware of the quill being offered as a pre-order in North America but if the retail masses out there know differently, please let us know in the comments.

I still use mine. My pink Kirby Canvas Curse one broke.

I got that quill stylus. Very inconvenient for portability factor. The Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin preorder bonus stylus was the best, though. Sadly, it cracked...

That's it I'm moving to Japan!

I got that stylus for taking a survey on Phantom Hourglass before Club Nintendo existed. It was available in America for a while.

A free stylus would be cool but freebie or no, it's still a day one purchase for me.
