Probably irrelevant to most of you but I just noticed they updated the EB Games website (NZ)

Feels good to see them up considering they never put wave 3 up and I had to preorder in store. Also lol Mario is out of stock.

*jealousy intensifies*
 
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The shipping of outrageous fortune,
Or to take Arms against a Sea of scalpers,
And by opposing, end them?

Sorry Shakespeare, I know you must be rolling in your grave right now, but I had to do this.
 
Here is the updated cabinet:

I can't remember if I posted this yet with the CEs on the bottom but yeah looking good. Just got the Cloud Strife formation arts figure today and it looks sogood.gif

Once again, I need LEDs or something, its going to be way to dark when I need to push stuff further back.
 
Fox is available from Nebraska Furniture Mart. They probably don't have many, but it's a chance to get him!

QUOTE TO REVEAL LINK (hope I'm doing this right)
 
Huh, so I KIND OF got my wish of "Hey, Nintendo should make a bundle of Kirby & the Rainbow Curse & a Kirby amiibo".

Club Nintendo exclusive Amiibos confirmed!
I wish. Sadly, I doubt Nintendo got a CN-exclusive amiibo in time for Club Nintendo's closing. Heck, it wouldn't even be the Platinum prize because they stated Gold/Platinum rewards would be downloadable games again.

Hopefully I can still register all of my stuff I have alot register I've never been in club nintendo but I have a ton of stuff from there :) and I have a TON of games and a Wii U, 2 3ds, and new 3ds on the way to register and few dozen games on each system... hopefully its at least just enough...

Rewriting Shakespeare to be about video games should totally be a thing.

I'll echo what you said: sorry Shakespeare. (You're not alone!)

We can still wish aimlessly for some cool platinum swag this year. I still kick myself when recalling that 2011 was the only year I did not make Platinum and this was the reward. Best platinum reward EVA!

Also the one year I didn't make Platinum. And the prior year I made it with nearly 600 coins to spare... WHY DIDN'T I WAIT ON THOSE SURVEYS, WHY
 
Alright so I searched through my previous posts and couldnt find it so im gonna ask here in hopes that I can find the person who ordered Rosalina on Ebay from the same buyer as me.

It was a Rosalina from this person on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PRESALE-Nin...ETTA-CHICO-WiiU-3DS-From-Japan-/271716231068?

Anyway, to the person who also ordered from this seller, have you gotten word on when he is shipping them? Japan has recieved Rosalina from the looks of it.. so im wondering when he may give us some sort of tracking info?

I sent him a message today, so hopefully I get some response...

Damn! Last I checked, those didn't go for much on eBay. Maybe $15 at the most? Now they're $50+. Glad I didn't sell mine last year when I was thinking about it (and needed money).

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Nintendo confirmed the platinum status reward would just be a digital game again 😞

Checking my history, it seems 2010 was the year of that statue. Has you can see I went nuts the following year. I started pilfering codes from Blockbuster video stores. X D

Wow, you're good man. Real thumbs up, I liked that, no irony here.

And I agree, rewriting poetry in general could be fun.

Now I just wish I could find some reason to use Poe...

Thanks! I feel like it took me a while to write, but looking at it now, it looks like I just changed a few words here and there. Haha.

Poe? Oh man.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I browsed, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious page of Amazon's store—
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my front door.
"'Tis some deliveryman," I muttered, "tapping at my front door—
Only Ness and nothing more."

... I'll stop now.
 
Anyone desperate for Kirby and Yoshi? I was going to keep them for use with the upcoming Wii U games, but the return period is running out and I think I'll just return them to Target. However, if anyone needs them desperately, I can sell them together for $50 shipped anywhere in USA or Canada.

I'm also on the fence about keeping Fox. I think it would be cool to have Fox and Falco on a team, but I tend to not use Amiibo for characters that I actually play as in Smash Bros.

Waiting for Bowser so I can have a Mario/Luigi/Peach/Bowser four player team. I'm looking forward to pitting them against the Fire Emblem team of four.

I wish Palutena was at least announced.

No words, just wow.

I thought 2011 seemed a little too recent, but I just trusted you. :P

I always wanted to start nabbing Blockbuster codes, but never did. :(
