Save $10 on preorders for Nintendos remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Best Buy is set to open select stores at midnight for the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on November 5. The retailer is preparing for the highly anticipated release, featuring a countdown on their website and special-edition Zelda 40th Anniversary Nintendo Switch 2 consoles. These consoles, along with matching Switch 2 Pro controllers, will be available for purchase at midnight if customers missed out on the preorder excitement in September.

However, Best Buy has not disclosed how many systems will be available or which stores will receive stock, only noting that quantities are limited. Store hours will vary by region, so customers should check with their local store before heading out.

For those with preorders for Ocarina of Time set for shipping, Best Buy allows them to collect their orders during the midnight opening by modifying the order through their purchase history. Despite this convenience, there are better options for preordering, as Amazon and Walmart are offering the game for $59.88, $10 less than Best Buy's price of $69.99.

The special edition Switch 2 console and accessories were showcased during the Zelda 40th Anniversary Nintendo Direct last month, but they are currently sold out at all major U.S. retailers.

Additional highlights from the Nintendo Direct included the first gameplay reveal for Ocarina of Time and its release date. This full remake of the 1998 Nintendo 64 original brings the game up to modern standards with overhauled graphics and additional lines of dialogue for characters to enhance their personalities.
