I've found Via following the VC scene. That nintendo has this nasty habit of releasing games in other countries that may or may not ever see an international vc release.

That would be very bad if Zelda OT doesn't see a international release and is only released in a few countries, since its one of the best games ever made. This also goes for any other classic games that Nintendo plans on not releasing internationally.
