Amiibo Discussion Thread 2: I Got 99 Pre-orders But A Rosalina Ain't One

Just ordered Ike from Nintendo UK, since it's the cheapest I could find him (£15, GAME? Please). Hopefully, his Ragnell isn't warped

Is anyone looking for a Pit? I don't mind trading a boxed Pit for another Amiibo, as long as it interests me. Otherwise, I'll just give him back to TRU
 
It looks like I'm getting two Toon Links because Zavvi are fucking useless. No communication from them and no movement on the order so two cancellation requests were made and I ordered elsewhere.

Then I got an email this afternoon saying it has been sent! Fuckers.
 
That guy selling his Little Mac is being a dick. He PM'd (not on GAF btw) this afternoon that I can buy it from him for 25 euros including shipping. So a couple of hours later I reply that we've got a deal and that he should send me his bank info. Now he replies me that he already got a deal with someone else in the mean time but if that person doesn't pay him before tuesday I can have it.

What kind of business is that

Darn straight I better be adorable!



You need a character schtick like me and waifus x3

I get the feelings its the same person who wrote the smash fanfic...

Horizon-chan moe <3

TheBatman fits into everything! I could take out the outrageously bad scalpers or something.

Heh.
 
I have one Meta Knight pre-order at BB still looks good, and my Rosalina preorders still look good too, the extra one I got for Byron Bluth.

Wish I had preordered an extra Shulk for someone

Probably a "too good to be true" moment for you :/

LilMac goes easily for over 30 euros and your buddy probably realized he was going to do a terrible deal with you.

best of luck and hopefully the other guy doesn't pay!
 
So I was kind of bored and didn't have anime to watch and remembered how someone joked about amiibo fan fiction. So I googled it for lols. Lo and behold there is one. Whoever is writing this is making me a girl on purpose aren't they :|

Well played.

Just something to get peoples' minds off of the crapshoot that is wave 4 preorders.
Oh god, please don't let me be part of that fan.....

*3rd paragraph, sees name*

Damn it.

Well it's on a website that despises scalpers so I doubt he's getting more money out of the other deal. But he's probably just afraid that people agree on a deal and then don't pay so he's betting on multiple horses at the same time. Me being the second horse in this case. If he'd told me that upfront I wouldn't have had a problem with that. But now it surely is a not so pleasant surprise.
 
Please don't post-race to see who had most posts. :P We don't really need this thread to be full of off-topic and spam.

Not racing I just post alot when I'm on. Lol.
Luckily I'm not on alot if thats your issue.

So can we start talking about 3rd party amiibos yet?
Surely this functionality wont be limited to first party or nintendo exclusive titles?
In the far future I'd love things like a Mass Effect line, Wonderful 101 would've been AMAZING!!! I coukd see lego games having them too.
 
I had to change the credit card info on my GameStop USA Shulk preorder. I did it over the phone with them.

Any experience doing this? Should I worry about it being an issue?

I made the order originally on the day they went live on the GameStop website.

I request Batman save me in the fanfic from those who would take Lucina preorders away!

Haha, this works for me. Hope they notice us. ;p

Anyway, wish Nintendo would fill us in on the Marth reprint. We don't know how large it's going to be, or when they'll be available.

Especially since Codename Steam comes out on the 13th of March, I hope we'll get him by then. Hell, Lucina and Robin probably won't even be out. May even wait to start the game because of that.

I could see Sega jumping on the amiibo bandwagon & making Sonic ones. Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Dr. Eggman, Metal Sonic, etc.

Namco seems to be the one 3rd party making games that support it (One Piece & Ace Combat), but I can't imagine they have a franchise outside of Pac-Man that they could make a line of amiibo on.

It would've been much better if they had informed you beforehand that you had only so and so time to reply back or something.
Otherwise, yeah its kind of douchey.

That would require an unprecedented partnership.
 
It seems like a lot of people here have signicant others that support their Amiibo hobby. What about the people like me, who have to hide it from their boyfriend? It makes it so much harder :-/

He's spending the night on Jan.31 so I'm going to have to sneak out early on Feb. 1 to go Amiibo hunting.

Why would you have to hide it from him?

Whelp, I just ordered this.

Evilos does amazing custom Disney Infinity figures, so really had to jump on this as soon as I saw it.

Be sure to post pictures!

That doesn't bother me they can make an unprecedented partnership. But seriously I would've loved a Wonderful 101 line.
I can see Sega too though. I just made myself sad though cause I'll prolly never get a World Ends with You Amiibo OR Viewtiful Joe amiibo
:( or a Golden Sun amiibo :(
 
Part of me wonders if Nintendo will make a line based on Pokken Tournament and do what they did with SSB and make one for each playable character. We already got Pikachu & Lucario, so those two could work on Pokken.
 
Dang it Now I really really really want a Golden Sun Amiibo line (
as well as Golden sun character in smash :(
)... :( why must I do this to myself!

Of course they will, Pikachu, Lucario, Machamp, Gardevoir and Suicune so far. And they have official renders ripe for some sweet sweet amiibo money.

Nintendo isnt dumb for sure I plan on alot of things having amiibo with an amiibo specific game title probably leaking by this years end.
 
It still think Nintendo missed an opportunity with Captain Falcon, When I think Falcon, I think of this:
400px-SSB4_-_Captain_Falcon_Screen-2.jpg

Not, "lightly kicking the ball back on to the football pitch".

So true, probably some crap like a pose leading with a punch would insinuate violence more, but then again Little Mac, so who knows.

That seems like a good excuse to make Pokemon amiibos while also avoiding the inevitable "WHY DOESN'T MY FAVORITE POKEMON HAVE AN AMIIBO?"

Oh man, I would love a Suicune figure.

I made the order originally on the day they went live on the GameStop website.

Anyone done this with no issue? I'm worried it will charge the old card and cancel on me as that card is out of commission.

Does GameStop retry or just cancel if it doesn't work upon charging the card?
 
So I was kind of bored and didn't have anime to watch and remembered how someone joked about amiibo fan fiction. So I googled it for lols. Lo and behold there is one. Whoever is writing this is making me a girl on purpose aren't they :|

Just something to get peoples' minds off of the crapshoot that is wave 4 preorders.

At least you didn't get stabbed in the back and was a heroine. Pretty honored I was mentioned and helped save SalvaPot and Azula. Yeah I'd try to do that IRL too and probably would get hurt in the process haha.

You and me both no idea how I or M1nion isnt mentioned we post here near the top.

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones :)
