Sigh. Okay I think that other poster was right. Missing out just now makes me feel awful. Been wanting this one so bad. I've been on edge over her and missing her just now makes me feel really shitty. I think as much as collecting Amiibos has made me happy, I've put too much on it that it feels bad that I just missed out on the one thing I've been worrying about.

I think I'm just going to stop collecting. Accept I won't be able to get everything, so stop stressing over it. It's really dumb Nintendo has made these so difficult to get. Gah.

Going to bow out Amiibros/Amiigals. I had a lot of fun. Being friends with you was so much fun and made me so happy. But I'm going to bow out here. I know this sounds melodramatic. Because it is. Ive been in an emotional struggle for a while now, sigh.

Anyways, I had so much fun. I love you guys. But Im going to give up. I leave soon for Japan anyways with my GF for vacation. As much fun and joy this has brought me, Ive gotten too wrapped up in wanting to collect these.

Bye AmiiboGAF.

I'm sorry to hear about that. I feel that Nintendo's gonna resupply Amiibo they understocked at some point in the future, so some day, I'm sure you'll have that Rosalina! But I'm sorry to hear about that stress you're experiencing. It can be awful, so I feel that break will be great for you! We'll miss you here; you were like the lifeblood of AmiiboGAF. Of course, we'll love it if you were to come back and visit. Have fun in Japan!

Don't go, we will dreadfully miss you! T_T
You can easily buy a Rosalina in Japan, so keep your hopes up~
 
Would be stupid to not resupply Rosalina in the future as she's one of the most popular Nintendo characters right now.

Your just suffering from burnout. Take a break and come back later refreshed. If you are completely done it will be a real shame. With so much dread and despair in this thread you always had a positive attitude, which was always refreshing to see daily.

I really wish I got to know you a little more. I was lurking for a while but it was people like you that made me want to be a part of this community. Know that a lot of your actions will live on through many you've inspired.
I hope you'll come back with some cool finds over in Japan. Have a really fun and relaxing trip, keep us updated and be safe!. :)
 
I'll keep my eyes peeled for you over here, Azula. If I happen to find a stray Rosalina, I'll be sure to snag her for you! Don't stress yourself out, and just focus on enjoying your vacation. Hope to see you while you're around! :D

Relax for now Azula, we have your back. My gut tells me Rosalina is going to be widely available, but I´ll make sure to get one for you if it becomes rare, you have my promise x). Japan is amazing! I really wish I can go back there, it changed my life and going there its what made me find who I was and what I wanted to do with my life. Have lots of fun!
 
Dang... Azula is leaving?

I'm really sorry to see you go, Azula. We'll miss you! I really don't think Rosalina will end up being too hard to find in the US, but if it's causing that much stress, then by all means take a break. Enjoy your vacation!

If I were ignorant of the exclusivity deals, I'd have named Rosalina as one of the ones most likely to be pretty common out of wave 3 (along with Bowser and Lucario). I imagine that it'll be like diddy- it initially becomes rare because of scalpers grabbing as many as they can, but later is relatively easy to just grab off the shelf in many places.

or perhaps I'm just in denial and the exculsivity deal will screw us over.
 
I hope you change your mind and come back to collecting Azula, but I can understand where you're coming from. It's generally how toy collecting works and why I stopped, I fell in love again with Amiibos though so I will just get what I can, but I feel stressed out as well.

Take care though and enjoy the vacation anyway!

Woah, are Lucina and Robin out already? Ness seems to be still available! GO PEOPLE

Fake Edit: shit son literally ran out as of this writing.

Actual Edit: Wait, I think Ness is still available, It still shows up, but says its not available when I click pre order.

Nah, I´m on the same boat as you, I think she is going to be widely available, but the whole preorder selling out in half an hour at 3am is making everyone freak out, even if it was most likely a mistake in their system. I remember almost panicking when target cancelled my Diddy Kong and buying a french one, but I hold it a little longer and it pay off.

AmiiboGAF idoes not like taking any chances, tho.
 
Don't give up Azula, we will make sho you get a Rosey. I have a guy at target who's putting a few away fer me and a friend, I will ask him if he can secure one more and if not, I'm positive someone here on Gaf will help you out. We are a family here, once you Amiibo-GAF, you never go Backf.
 
Speaking of Rosalina and Luma, does anyone else in AmiiboGAF live near a Video Games Etc? Their website claims they're taking pre-orders for it, which seems wrong but it wouldn't be the first time they somehow sold retailer-exclusive items.

Was $71 shipped for the 4 Smash amiibos they had available, $17.75 per amiibo. Not bad. Good to have a secure option in case I miss out on any American preorders.

Were Robin and Lucina available or did they sell out already?!

Edit: holy crap I got Charizard just in time. I don't think he's gonna be rare at all though.

I'm not sure about Robin and Lucina.

And yeah I used Nippon-Yasan for Marth/Wii Fit Trainer/Villager and they all came in perfect condition. Will probably use it again if I can't get US versions.

Bummed to see you go but if you feel it's what you need to do then you do it. I know others have said it but you were a reason I came back into this thread and I do think you helped bring something out in this community. Should you ever decide to come back, I can almost guarantee someone, if not most of us, will have a Rosalina ready and waiting for you. Stay strong and enjoy your trip. Any time you want to chime in with news about your health or just to chat for a bit, you know we're here for ya.

15 days before the shipment date they'll send an email reminding you to pay. I think they just cancel the order if you don't pay, could be wrong though.

I don't really know you very well, but I've definitely seen all of the kindness you've shown to amiiboGAF. Remember that you'll always have a place here if you want to come back!
 
Sad as it is to see such a prominent Amiibo fan exit, if its causing Azula that much stress, maybe a break will do some good.

I think once that vacations over they'll be back and swinging with a Rosalina in hand.
 
I am still learning about imports.
Nin-nin-game has been my choice so far, but we will see.

Edit: Captain Toad getting an Amiibo bundle I see.

That will happen. If you have two items, and one of them releases earlier, it'll ask you to pay for the entire thing. Failing to do so will cancel your order. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to cancel it, outside of maybe contacting Customer Support.

In any case, Shame Azula is leaving. I can't help but want to contribute a Rosalina, even if I don't have a rosy outlook on income after February.

wat
Looking at my N-Y reciept and I guess I'm only paying for 2 amiibos? Even though I have 4 on order? Guess I was too late for most of them lol :(

Hopefully Gamestop comes through. They had Wave 3 preorders up for a very long time (do they still have them up?) so maybe it'll be the same with Wave 4. I hope...

Hey man dont give up on US! Remember I have an EU Rosalina coming with your name on it! And if I get an extra US one you can have that instead. We're all in this together Amiibro!

Don't stress! It's fun! We have each other and let's make the hunt fun. We need you to help us beat the scalpers!

You're totally burnt out, Azula. You got the place up and running like a train, AND stuck around for a while as one of the most active members. Don't feel bad about bowing out of the game for a while. Just know that you did so much in the amount of time you were here that people will still be looking out for you for anything you may need. So if you ever want to hop back in you won't have too stress about it.

Have fun with your trip!

What price are you asking for them? Its going to be hard to find someone who is going to be willing to go higher than 25 for falcon and 20 for Fox here.

Actually it was those exact prices lol. I was looking for trades as well, but I doubt many people were looking to trade their Pits or WFTs for Falcon or Fox.

Those trades sound reasonable. In this thread alone there used to be lots of people trading their extra pits for Falcon, maybe someone still is looking for it, I say make the post and be sure to put exactly how much you want for them. When you don´t people normally expect outrageous prices.

You take care of yourself, mate. I hope you & your girlfriend will have fun in Japan, along with just not trying to sweat the small stuff in general. Also, feel free to drop by & say hi. :)

But I agree with you. While I rarely say this, Nintendo of America should go & eat a bag of dicks for making this whole situation stressful/aggrivating for everyone. I'm no expert on the matter, but you would think by now they would've taken a clue that they needed to properly make these figurines more accessable to obtain in North America. It isn't funny that most of us are jumping through hoops to get some of our favourites, while most of Europe & Japan can walk into any store & buy them straight on the shelf.
