Didn't realise ShopTo had Wave 4 up for order. Got a Pac-Man pre-order in but they're not taking any more on Robin. The fact that they have a limit should be able to prevent anything like the Smash+Adapter bundle incidents happening again. Now to find a Robin pre-order in the UK...

It's already been answered, but I'll chime in and mention that I have a section about these up on amiibros that I called 'Pre-amiibo'. :)

I managed to get a full set of the standard figures at my local Gamestop b/c the employees peeked in each blind bag and labeled the Pokeballs. I basically bought the full set in one trip and they gave me an empty display box as a free bonus. :)
Unfortunately, I never tracked down the 'Shiny' variants of Eevee, Pikachu, or Genesect and now they cost a fortune. :S

Nice, cool site!
Such a strange and random selection of pokemon? Starters from all over the place.
That Litwick sure is cute though! [8
 
I just bought a Wii U gamecube adapter for 20 from amazon everyone go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Edit : Went sold out again after I paid even with 1 click shopping, so I never got it.
 
So is there any word on when US preorders for wave 4 will start? I just want Lucina from that wave.

Also if I get both of the Megaman amiibos I preordered I'll be looking to trade, so if anyone has a Pit or Little Mac they want to trade I'll be all ears.

Can't get it to work for US even though they ship here. Can't get past the credit card registration

Indeed!
Glad to have helped, if only minorly.
Seems they're all up and have images now, so you should be able to pre-order. Just the mario series arent up, but I was only interested in toad, which I managed to get from Game (Still feel bad giving them money), but I had some discount, so got it for £8.

Charizard looks pretty cool too, but can't justify it to myself to buy it.

Yes, thank you. That's exactly what happened. I'm away in Belgium at the moment and thought they couldn't process cause of location. Then it was fine a moment later.

Now they just have to pull through!! Still might order a back up at Amazon whenever that comes up.

Yeah, I got Toad from Game too. Classic Bowser I thought looked awesome, but the comments about Smash Bowser here makes me want to wait and compare (and hope neither are rare, as didn't preorder him).

Bring on Wave 5!! (Just kidding, I have to recover still!!)

Yeah Shopto have now run out on all preorders.

God, this is a mess :(

I'm sure places in the UK that were not taking pre-orders, like supermarkets, will have stock in the next few days. I'll keep my eye out for Ros and will buy any that I see for people on here.
 
Anyone have any stores with Pit in stock? I'm looking to import one and I'm looking for the cheapest option available. One person offered but I'm also open to others. I'll pay for cost + shipping (to NZ) + a little something for your effort. Please help me get him T^T

Thanks! :D
Yeah, I definitely agree that the Pokemon selection was pretty odd - maybe they were just trying to represent each Gen with a few random selections from each one?

So I just saw on Nowinstock.net that they have the Majora's Mask 3DS XL up as out of stock at Walmart and Target. Was it ever available for preorder at these places? Could it be a placeholder for one coming?

Hopefully this confirms these stores will have them in stock on release day if they don't take preorders.

I don't recall Nintendo saying the MM N3DSXL was exclusive to any specific retailers so I'm thinking it might be available at Target, Wal-Mart, and possibly Toys R Us at launch.
I thankfully managed to secure mine at Best Buy just before they sold out, but hopefully others hunting for one will also have luck at one of the above retailers. :)

Also, if anyone hasn't picked up Smash Bros on Wii U yet, Amazon has it for $41.05 with Prime shipping!

Gaffers fucking rock.

Just spoke with a Toys R Us employee in my area who happens to be a Gaffer. I won't call him out, but needless to say I'm heading out there now. Heheheheh.

Thanks "L"

I'm looking for a MM N3DSXL so if anyone has an extra preorder pls let me know! Thank you!

Thanks for the heads up on Amazon price matching wal Mart. They also priced matched Uncharted 4 PS4 preorder.
 
I saw ShopTo had a Ness up for pre-order but their website makes no sense, so I'm giving up. Will wait for my usual place to get pre-orders in.

is it wave 3 related? If so you better buy enough for the whole class! :)
 
I'd hope I hadn't missed preorders, I happened to go by gamestop and ask and they said they didn't have them up yet. >.>

I almost had a heart attack. I thought I missed wave 4 preorders cause I overslept. D:

No, but I've been staring at a full cart for a couple hours now, wondering if I should pull the trigger...

Edit: I think I'm gonna stay in the NA stressful endurance wait
