Just one exclusive level per character for a select few characters wouldn't be anything to throw a fit over.
My head is spinning. I can't even catch my breath. So basically, got two orders of the Majoras Mask new XL on gamestop.com before it sold out. Found out they won't be selling the smaller N3DS. People are losing their shit.
And then we got the new Wave 4 amiibos which looked gorgeous. Also...Marth re-stock?
Can't get my head around anything. And we still got Wave 3 in Early Feb.

Because it is. She had her own new figure in the Direct footage, but whatever. I'm more upset about no Waluigi or Daisy.

Pretty sure that is the Smash Rosalina, they were just showing which ones were compatible with Mario Party 10
It'll prolly be today - keep F5'in

That is the smash bros version.
Okay, hopefully it releases in NoA by the time the game comes out...
heh
Also since the new Mario line was announced, you guys think that we will start seeing Smash Mario/Luigi/Peach/Yoshi/Bowser starting to get phased out soon?
Yeah, I'm still super sleepy and everything is happening quickly. Ordered the MM bundle, too, for my bf though he can't decide if he wants to stick with it or go for the red. lol Trying to decide whether I should go back to sleep or stay up and hope amiibo preorders go up.
Wait the Majora Mask N3DSXL already sold out wow...don't tell me the Monster hunter one is also sold out...not that I have any money considering I already broke no thanks to amiibos. At least I can take consolation I got the Skull Kid figure.

Wait, when's wave 4 again? March or April?
Yeah it was gone pretty quickly. Monster Hunter on is still up atm tho
Did they announce reissues on WFT and Villagers too or just Marth?
Can't wait to see the comparison of the new lineup vs the final product. Surely, they can't mess up Pac-man. He's so simple looking but great at the same time.
I'm not even going to bother trying to collect the Mario Party lineup. I'll just get characters missing from Smash if they look good. Toad will be mines!

Hopefully that means characters with game functions will be stocked more. Restocking marth makes sense, but retailer exclusives meta knight and rosalina need more stock for upcoming games as well.
The Mario Party wave releases in March, to coincide with the game's release.
Smash Wave 4 releases in "Spring", though the Japanese amiibo site has a date of April 29.

I need that Marth reprint but for the moment time to F5 Amazon and [LOCK ON] to a Charizard and Lucina preorder.
Aw man
I really wanted that Majora's Mask one, can't believe how fast it sold out! Isn't gamestop doing some kind of trade-in deal with the new 3DS?

Aw man
It was just announced, I imagine preorders will open back up when they get a better idea of stock.
Or maybe not, this is the same Nintendo that sold the Pikachu 3dsxl for a day.
I wish I can get the Monster hunter N3DSXL but I'm putting priority on the Smash amiibo set. Why don't I have $35,000 in the bank like that guy whom I will not name.
Yeah I couldn't really believe it. I actually got my Zelda Link Between Worlds XL fairly easily... and on Black Friday at a discounted price none the less!
EDIT: Is it just Nintendo's thing now to have extremely low stock of everything?

Well, im moving soon, and i did some cleaning to get ready, and stumbled onto some older games and such that have been sitting a closet for years.
Guess its time to really start in on these Amiibos. Will report back in with damage later.

I imagine those two will get reprinted when they have another game that'll support them. I'm just glad Nintendo knew of how rare Marth was when implementing him in Codename STEAM and plans on making more. Should Nintendo make a Wii U Animal Crossing, you know they'll make more Villager amiibo so people can save their custom villager and take them to a friend's place or something.
For EU, April 24th. US is just "Spring" at the moment.
Aw man
They are, though some people said their gamestops said the MM LE is online only, so idk if you could do the deal with the system anyway. I'm really unsure how this is all working- I just grabbed a preorder and then figured I'd sort the details out later. lol

Ugh my poor wallet still hasn't recovered, and now the new 3ds xl
Yeah, February is going to be a mess, haha.

They're conservative, but they also have a rabid fan base that will fight for scraps. I think they enjoy seeing their stuff constantly scalped for a huge markup.
Man. I wake up to hear that Nintendo of America aren't bringing the regular new 3DS over and the Majoras Mask 3DS XL is sold out online before I even wake up?
Such a classic example of Nintendo of America continually screwing with their fans. I wish they'd just let Nintendo of Europe handle all the western stuff.

The Majora's Mask New 3DS isn't exclusive to Gamestop though, is it? Is it possible preorders may open up at TRU, Best Buy, or even Wal-Mart?

Yeah, i feel you there. The MM n3DS isnt a big deal to me, but no non-XL n3DS here? Thats some choice BS
I've never had a problem with anything I've pre-ordered from them.

More so with delivery than pickup it seems. I have gotten all my in stores but th we re have been delays. Some people have had theirs sold from under them too. My advice is delivery option
Best Buy's site is just getting hammered from a lot of people trying to see if the new Amiibo's are up, and when they'll be up. Of course, this is part of the problem with the whole thing in the first place. No idea when pre-orders go up, and them selling out in 15 minutes when they do because people are constantly refreshing the page 24/7 as part of their job. :\
