Is it me or Link is getting more rare?

I went to like three different stores today and I haven't seen a single Link. Lot of Zelda though.

If your in Canada, try EB games website. Also do an online stock search and call in to verify.

 

[SalvaPot]

I got two emails from TRU and both told me I have a 15 bucks discount for the next order, but cancellation is final, that will teach me to keep using paypal with them, heh.

Aaaaanyway, I may use this code to order DDD and Ike if they ever become available, and know that Falcon was shipped from BB I have nothing to fear, I do wish I had extra to trade or sell later on.

Still reading through this, and this popped up on it:

I am not doing anything wrong if people are a big fan of rosalina they would have been up at 4 am like me to lock in their preorders.

Oh yes, because ALL US FANS totally KNEW it would show up in the middle of the night! Guess we aren't devoted enough.... -_-

 

[Scofield94941]

Damn at that last post (it was me). Neogaf represent. I cant believe amiibo got so big it has a villian

 

[Velcro Fly]

My stuff shipped and BB is apparently overnighting Pit and CF since they shipped today and have estimated arrival of tomorrow. So excited!

LOL. Come on? I'm not the only one that finds him awesomely funny right? It's like being a fan of Chad Warden.

From the wal-mart in Panorama City, CA:

All I know is that he's not taking my stock since I'm in Canada so it doesn't affect me that much directly.

 

[Rabid Wolverine]

Re-Ordered all 10 amiibo's from Amazon Germany, added Falcon which came in stock. All I need is Little Mac now.

 

[Salamando]

Finally found wave 2 at WalMart!

Spoiler

There were only Zeldas and Luigis

LOL. Come on? I'm not the only one that finds him awesomely funny right? It's like being a fan of Chad Warden.

It's more sad than funny. Dude's in his 20's/30's, yet he goes on twitter and threatens suicide if the Titanfall people push through a change? Feel like giving him any attention just feeds his...whatever it is he has.

 

[Spades]

Anyone in the UK know of anywhere that still has Shulk and Meta Knight available for pre-order? These are the only two I've been unable to order so far.

For anyone looking for the other Wave 3 & 4 figures, ShopTo has them all available to pre-order (apart from the two above, obviously).

 

[CH4OS]

So has it been officially confirmed that the once wave 3 is now split into waves 3 & 4 with two different release dates in the US?

 

[Scofield94941]

Who said that?

I thought that's what this was showing, unless this is Germany only. But I saw Spades also mentioned wave 4 figures.

 

[Scofield94941]

I thought it was going to be 3a and 3b waves

 

[Mendrox]

Wave 5 please Palutena Amiibo.

Also preordered Rosalina from Amazon.de just a second ago.

 

[Yrael]

I'm rather surprised Wario hasn't shown up yet. I suppose he'll probably be in Wave 5.

[Sora_N]

I thought some countries had it split but US (and Canada I guess) have them all coming at once since we have the exclusives here in North America while other countries do not.

Add to cart does nothing. Guess I was too slow?

 

[Scofield94941]

Worked for me but didnt hit buy since i done need him, is ship to home still green . Still green for me get ittttt

 

[Zomba13]

I'm so happy I've got all my Wave 3/4 Amiibo preordered and locked in through the uk Nintendo store. All I have to worry about is potentially damaged/bad figures but so far so good.

Wish wave 5 would be announced so I can lock them in.

 

[Scofield94941]

Dammit now hes gone. I should have ordered one for u

 

[batfax]

Worked for me but didnt hit buy since i done need him, is ship to home still green . Still green for me get ittttt

No idea what the problem is on my end then. I keep clicking "add to cart" but no Mac appears there.

edit: It finally added to cart, but no ship-to-home or in-store pickup. It's just sitting in my cart now. Oh well.

 

[verplant]

Is that really wave 3 date??

It's for europe. The upcoming 11 known amiibo seperated to 6 on January 23rd 2015 and 5 on February 20th 2015 here.


Waves in Japan:
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/amiibo/lineup/index.html

Got wave 1+2 as "one wave" on 2014-12-06. The upcoming 11 amiibo seperated to 8 on January 22nd 2015 and 3 on February there.

 

[Joei]

I couldn't even search it on the website, but when I clicked the link, it would pop up. I would click add to cart, but it wasn't giving me anything.

 

[Thoraxes]

So is NA still just Feb 1st or should I be on the lookout for confirmation calls from Gamestop in two weeks?

 

[melman101]

I think we are still sitting at Feb 1st.

-----

I opened up my Pit yesterday. He's a beast. Only level 18 and he won the 8 player smash against 4 level 30-40 amiibo's 2 level 9 CPUs and me! Wow, he's insane!

 

[Zalman]

I really don't understand why they changed Link's angle like that. The yellow stand is what most people complained about, but that doesn't bother me so much as the fact that the final version of link is staring at the ground. His foot on the floor is attached to the back of the disc, when it should be attached to the FRONT. Then he would be looking forward like he's supposed to, and he would still have the yellow stand on his leg.

Just makes no sense.

Agreed. In my opinion it's the worst-looking amiibo. Such a shame considering how iconic of a character he is. I think I'll have to get Toon Link for my collection instead then.

 

[Tejstar]

Does anyone know how many Amiibos Nintendo will eventually have? Will they just keep going until all of their characters are exhausted?

Alrighty.

My biggest fear is missing that call to come pick up my amiibos and they don't leave a message.

Would hate for that to happen, but I hear they are good with that stuff.

 

[thebisonxrc]

I'm currently in Asia and I'm interested in picking up some amiibos. Does anyone know if I would be able to use them with a North American Wii U?

Thanks!

 

[Yrael]

Yep. They're not region locked at all.

Yep. They're not region locked at all.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the quick reply, I appreciate it.

 

[Zalman]

Every Smash character will likely get one. How they handle things from there remains to be seen.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

So first there's drunk Samus, now we have sleepy Link?

Not sleepy, just making sure he clears a puddle.

 

[olimpia84]

So what's the best way to get a Pit amiibo nowadays? My Best Buy in-store pickup never ended up working =/

PSA:

My Mum phoned me this morning to say they got some more Villagers in at the Toys R Us she works at (Rochester/Chatham).

THERE'S STILL A CHANCE




UK, BTW.

 

[digitaldevmike]

can you get club Nintendo points from amiibos? Feel like I deserve some swag my suffering.

 

[Theandrin]

Nope. I wish they did though. I feel like I would have hit platinum this year just on amiibos.

 

[Kandinsky]

Just got my Ebay Marth, thank god he's perfect! No derp face or bent sword.

Now...I want to unwrap it SO BAD, the packaging is a bit beaten up...

I have another one from a GAFer coming, I'm torn between waiting to see which looks the best. I want to display the best looking one and keep the other sealed until my retirement. :lol

Wow, I doubt the one coming will look even close to that one, he looks great, probably the best I've seen, congrats !

 

[O.v.e.rlord]

Agreed. In my opinion it's the worst-looking amiibo. Such a shame considering how iconic of a character he is. I think I'll have to get Toon Link for my collection instead then.

I keep on seeing Link think I should pick him yup but that piss yellow stand is the worst. I just can't. Sadly I most likely never get him because of it.
