Lucky you, my pre-order for the MM n3DSXL was cancelled.

Damn. I was the first preorder at one of my local EB Games so I think I'm set unless they get 0.

It's all paid in full except for the remaining that will be paid by the trade deal when I give them my XL on launch day. They will be letting me transfer in store too on their WiFi.

BB has done stiff like this in the past if thays where you ordered from? I stopped preordering thing i really want at BB a long time ago. They have messed me up 1 too many times.

Wave 3 amiibo bring big lines to Nintendo World Store

Wasn't the Hyrule Warriors line worse?

Nintendo is taking so much of my money in February.

Wave 3+Exclusives, MM New 3DS XL, MM Limited Edition and then whenever the Wave 4 preorders go up

Mine too man =/ Oh well.

You and I are forever Amiibros over this

No Rosalina for tomorrow's Canadian Wave 3 launch

https://mobile.twitter.com/FS_Gamer/status/560931889163567106

They replied to me (I'm MannyCalavera12) and said they don't have a date for when they will be getting Rosalina.

One less thing to worry about on tomorrow's hunt!

I just realized even more if the Super Mario line goes for preorder in store at EB Games, and I'll be buying a regular edition of MM since I don't want to open the limited one.

Hahaha shit.

 

[eudaemonic]

I know someone at a Northern California TRU and they just texted me they only have twelve Lucarios to sell tomorrow (and as far as they know, most stores in their area are only getting twelve). Just a heads up.

Ye that was because it was the LE version with the scarf but anyone thought this would happen with Amiibos?

Wasn't that like 2 days ago though? I was there today and there wasn't any line. There wasn't any Wave 3 amiibos left either though except Bowser.

EB seems slim if you don't have a preorder. Toys R Us is your best bet. The only extra EB will have are Toon Link and Bowser. Maybe Dedede.

 

[LostAnkh]

Yup.
Should've pre-ordered at GS after the Direct,although I could have pre-orderes recently if BB told me a day before.

Has anyone had an online order with TRU for Lucario have it ship yet?

Seems odd that the launch is tomorrow and none have been shipped yet. I don't trust TRU at all.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

So in light of the Rosalina Target debacle, I've composed an open letter to Nintendo.

Dear Nintendo,

Stores having exclusive rights to Amiibos sucks. Don't be that guy.

Signed,

Everyone.

Oh gosh don't remind me of hyrule warriors right now for my zelda collection I shelled out 1100$ for 2 sealed copies of that beauty.

Spoiler

still cheaper than flying there to buy 2

I'm assuming (and hoping) that they are going to ship it out on the day of release.

Should have used your Faith shoes to get you there in no time! ;o

I sure hope so. My order was one of the ones that got cancelled and then having to be reordered and all that shit. They've already screwed up

Thanks I will have to make my way out to toys r us then!

 

[lilty]

Finally got shipping notifications for Shiek and Toon Link. I also got a weird email from EB about my Shulk order not being paid, but when I called they said it was an error and Shulk is being shipped tomorrow. So that's good news.

I kind of wish I had pre-ordered Bowser. His figure looks good and I don't know whether or not I'll be able to find one easily.

 

[TheBanditKing]

Do they charge before shipping? I see alot of other things I want on amiami

I always use hobby search http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/ They don't charge you until it ships and if you use paypal they dont charge you until you authorize and send the payment from paypal.

Dublin: should get shipment today. Don't know qty. Limit 1 per customer.

Should also try San Mateo and Redwood City if you're calling around.

I had to call for mine. TRU fun! Never got an email saying it was reordered so I called not once, but thrice. First time person hung up/got disconnected. Second time guy put me on hold for over 20 mins!! Obviously wasn't coming back. Third time got it re-ordered, re-charged (was on an old card, so good thing) and got $5 off for all my issues.

Hoping I get it...

What kind of special edition was there for Hyrule Warriors?

 

[Lee Chaolan]

What kind of special edition was there for Hyrule Warriors?

iirc just the game, fancy box and Link's scarf.

On mobile quickest way to find a link

Honestly like the treasure box set from japan better.

 

[Jawmuncher]

So what are our guesses for sets after Mario Party and Smash?

Honestly think Star Fox won't get anything but a reprint of Smash Fox. With MAYBE a different box.

Zelda this year seems like the best bet.
new poses but same functionality.

 

[Zonic]

What kind of special edition was there for Hyrule Warriors?

Well remember that awesome one Japan got with a Triforce alarm clock, a scarf based on the one Link wears, all of those Link & Zelda costumes that were split up between retailers, & a mini treasure chest?

...............well the US LE was just the scarf.

 

[PadWarrior]

Nothing on my end either. I may just try to get one in the store.

Accurate I own 1 sealed and open of each.
The JP ones were significantly cheaper...

 

[eudaemonic]

How do I know my in store pre-order is going to be worth shit tomorrow...

Might be worth calling. I yelled at my peep to make sure preorders get held (they know I'll be grumpy at them if they don't). Their store only had four pre-orders though.

My order still has "Item(s) on hold until release date: 12 / 24 / 14" next to it. Not feeling great about that.

Amiibo OT3: Fuck

this one has my vote

 

[Danthrax]

What about Lucario in Canada?

it says right there

Perhaps this is worth reposting. It's an updated North American* list of when each Wave 3 figure is released at each retailer

...

*But in Canada, Rosalina no longer is exclusive to Target, reportedly. Now she'll be in every retailer that normally sells Amiibos, but the release dates are unknown as of now and may vary from retailer to retailer.

 

[Gurrry]

After contemplating going to Target at 8 am on Super Bowl Sunday.. I have a suggestion for the OT3 title...

Amiibo OT3: What am I doing with my life?

[Byron Bluth]

Wait what? Lucario! Haha

 

[Nori Chan]

If he just scans it, the scanner will tell him 2/1 or no street date.

He just said nope, can't sell it and didn't tel me the date. I'm just going to assume it's sunday.

I mean there were no pegs for them so I'm guessing they're not sold out yet.

 

[Bulbasaur]

I arrived at my local Target right when they were stocking the shelves. Toon Link is amazing- very nendoroid-like. Dedede looks great too and Shulks detail is pretty impressive so I snatched up those bad boys with the quickness!

So much for not collecting these things!

 

[spindashing]

Peach, Luigi, and Yoshi Mario Party amiibos are up on amazon if you missed those.

 

[Danthrax]

Wait what? Lucario! Haha

oh sorry! I fucked up.

I imagine it's the same as in the U.S. You have Toys R Uses in Canada, right?

not snarky, legitimate question to make sure

[eudaemonic]

Talked to a TRU person about my Lucario order. Says it's still good but it's on backorder at the moment. Left feedback that their system really needs to be more consumer friendly.

No not sell it. Scan it with their hand held scanners. It'll say the date.
