My local Best Buy had no extra Sheiks to sell and only 2 for preorders, they told us they didn´t had enough to fulfill preorders of Sheik.
And that is why I order ship-to-home with them...

That'd be how I'm getting Dedede, Meta Knight, Sonic, and Mega Man (the first one).

Jesus. I didn't realize it was that bad there. I'm glad I did my meta knight ship-to-home.
Mmmmm yes.
I think I'm just going to slap down a pre-order on all of Wave Four, as well as my extra Lucina and Robin. Even if I don't want them later it's not like I'll lose money on any of them the way demand is.
ps. guys I think Blue Namagem likes Mega Man but I could be wrong

Subete no aware
Hrm, I see that Nin Nin is taking preorders for Wave 4 amiibos at twice the price. Smart. lol
Them extra Robin and Lucina.
I have them aswell.
Nah bro, think he might be talking about Sanic.

I've seen Wave one and that is it here at our local store.
Just got back from writing an essay at the library. It's 2am and I feel like I got only half the work I needed to get done thanks largely in part to me checking this thread and constantly looking at walmart and amazon.
Not to mention the YikYak meltdown unfolding on campus.
I'm sorry
Game & Watch will be piece of black construction paper glued to a base.
Yeah, it's not like we're having a heated debate or something. We're just chillin' out, posting whatever we feel like.
For instance, a picture that almost always elicits a laugh from me:
I just realized the second part of your name was Megaman backwards...
Oh and so I realized that for some reason my sister's 3DS was not linked to her Club Nintendo account even though the FAQ says
Which was why her Club Nintendo account wasn't getting surveys...
Nope (Yep?), New Zealand here.

Haha, when I make this happen with 7 of the amiibos:
and share the pics here, you'll know exactly how much I like Mega Man!
So yes, I'd say he's a rather cool character, imo.
the land of the easy pre-order
So cool he made it into MvC3 right? zero4life
Can you imagine it? Waking up at 3am to just get a chance to preorder? There'd be riots everywhere.
Americans and Canadians are definitely getting

Some Americans did place preorders, but with the UK Amazon website. American retailers still haven't posted it.
Not just Americans. I believe some Canadians are importing wave 4 from Amazon UK as a backup too. Unless you mean North Americans.

Spoilers!
You'd be surprised how many people don't get the name, even though it's pretty much right there if you read it backwards. Love it, which is why it's my handle for almost everything.
Typically, it's just "Namagem", but when I set up the account here, that was already taken, apparently. So, my backup is always "Blue Namagem", like the color of the titular robot himself.

Oh yeah, X totally made it into MvC3 and disproved the long-standing rumors that Capcom hates Mega Man
...oh yeah, right. It was a freakin' tease of a skin. Fun. Awesome. Keep on keepin' on, Capcom.
Edit: Hey, they snuck in a subtle tease to allude to Classic Mega Man making an appearance
...which amounted to, ultimately, nothing.
Lovin' it.

For the purposes of this thread I guess I imagine Americans to mean everybody at the mercy of NoA. Does that include Canada, or do they have a separate Nintendo branch?

I love Mega Man so much, and all the trolling on Capcpom's part has been brutal. You should see my April Fools joke thread!
From my understanding... they have a headquarters in Canada as stated on the site and a separate site but they follow our NoA's release and schedule for the most part and get their orders from NoA. So I guess in a way NoC is a sub-branch of NoA or something.

So much trolling, it's just comical, really. We keep getting merch after merch after merch, but do they even think a game might be a viable business option? Nope, because the series lacks the words "Resident" "Street" "Evil" or "Fighter", which are necessary for success, in their eyes.
A non-crossover, completely unrelated game called "Resident Street: Evil Fighter" would probably be pretty cool, though.

Chris would probably kill everyone with his fists and Wesker would just.not.die.
Don't forget megaman had that iOS game that even fans easily made a clone of. Capcom also eventually cancelled said iOS game too so we are never getting a new megaman game, not even terrible ones.

Here a let play of this megaman game capcom made and released.

The only, ONLY good things about that abomination: the original character artwork, and the theme song. Everything else is just terrible to look at and recognize as an actual game they released.
But hey, Korea has Rockman Go!, which is...
An endless runner that shamelessly rips most of its audio and visual assets from Mega Man Powered Up, and has microtransactions.
It's getting harder and harder to believe that Capcom isn't messing with us. I'm practically convinced they are.
God damn this thread and what Capcpom did was brutal. At least is a badass Mega Man concept art.

Welp none of the targets near me had sheik so I'm screwed there. Ugh I wish nintendo would print more of them.
I've come to accept Smash is the last place Megaman is ever going to be respected ever. To see all his incarnation in his final smash makes the fan in me happy. And the effort that went into creating some characters 3D model in HD like Bass and Treble just makes me sad we never seeing any real effort from Capcom side.
Now that's figure, oh my! Sooooo cool! Hope they can reach their goal.
Good thing his Amiibo got the same amount of respect. Mine look great and compared to other Amiibos there seems to be less paint errors or marks.

Truth, all of it. I can't play any other character except Mega Man in Smash. He's who I used for the 3DS demo for 40+ hours, all the way until now. He's who I entered Apex with.
So damn aggravating that the best Mega Man game to come out in years and respect his legacy isn't even a Mega Man game, and its done a better job of upholding the series' legacy better tham Capcom has with their endless merch and free to play games.
I just don't get it.

You...have him? Ugh, maaan...Do you have a spare you'd like to trade for Rosalina, Fox, or Yoshi? I'm dyin' to get him before the end of the month.

Considering D-Arts X goes for insane prices in the aftermarket, he'll fit nicely with the rest of my scaled Smash figures.
Blue Namagem

Ah maaan, yeah. That's insanely far. I PMed you, hoping you were closer.I have a couple yeah. But in Aus man
Out of curiousity, what would it cost to ship something from there to here, and vice versa? Never done it before.
Blue Namagem
Member
Haha, you nailed it!
lol
I'd love to trade man, but yeah the shipping is a bit ridiculous. It might cost as much as the actual amiibo and would take a while to get there :/
Kinda sucks living here sometimes.

Dammit...this sucks. Was really hoping to get Mega Man.
I guess it can't be helped. Oh well.

The Captain Falcon one actually looks pretty cool with the Blue Falcon racer from the DLC.
You will get them if you are patient. They were one of the easiest amiibos to find when they came out here. Hence me having multiples lol
Blue Namagem

Yeah, I have them coming, I just would've LOVED to have one before then, and maybe give the Best Buy one to my brother or something.
It's killing me knowing that he's out there, and I can't have him.
