From Reddit. It is amazing. Someone contacted amazon about Wave 4 Preorders and you won't believe what happens next!

Is it true Gamestop will have their stock in tomorrow? Have Sonic and Rock Man preordered, but never got a robocall. In the SF East Bay if that helps.
 
Checked 2 Targets, 1 Wal-mart, 1 Gamestop, and 1 Best Buy in my area and all they have are old stuff. I'm not even sure we got the new stuff in...

All I want is a Mega Man
 
I can see that. I imagine that Nintendo would rather get classic Wario amiibos on store shelves instead of the lesser known superior biker Wario. It can go either way I think, but I'd lean towards Smash Wario being easy to find, for a time anyway.
Most people associate Wario's general apperance & games from the Wario Ware series than his platforming adventures. This one kid, who I use to baby sit, was confused when he saw Wario wearing what he described as "knock-off Mario overall's" when he had played 'Wario Land: Shake-It!' for the first time, & wished he was wearing his motorcycle gear.
 
I don't know but that's the start of the conversation. We've been splintering off every week. It is becoming very difficult to track 3 threads and 2 chat groups.

I thought things were separated because people found it too hard to find info relevant to them within a single large and fast moving thread. I guess the idea now is that you don't try to follow everything but just those parts that are relevant to you. Just my interpretation though of course.

Push Bullet isn't a chat group. Push Bullet is one person running a notification service that pushes notifications to your phone.

LINE is a chatting app that we're also using as a way to notify people about when amiibo are available.
 
So I have a really long Pushbullet note! ^^

Pushbullet Note
In order for Pushbullet to work successfully, we need collaborators to post blog posts about when Amiibos are up! Please contact me. Thanks!

If you haven't been following on, the Canadian version of the Pushbullet service is now available! and maintained by GtwoK.

You can read all about it on that post! I hope Canadians find success with the Pushbullet service and I thank GtwoK for setting it up for all Canadians!

That means
Our Pushbullet Service is now called the International Pushbullet service! (STILL!) It will and always will be. We will also post Canadian announcements, although not immediately. Canadian announcements will be mainstreamed on the Canadian Pushbullet.


Thanks for keeping up!
Kisses

Unless already mentioned:

Nintendo Australia is going to restock Aussie stores with import Amiibos

Yeah I mentioned in another thread that I picked up Kirby from Target in Japanese packaging. They just slapped a sticker on the back from Nintendo of Australia and presumably a new barcode.

The funny thing about their "resupply" is that only had 3 Kirby's and 3 Donkey Kong's. That's it.

I'm interested now! Pictures?

Also, they will resupply over the couple of months ;). Keep your hopes up for an import WFT! LMAO
 
I sincerely hope Wave 4 opens up tonight, everyone. I may be freakin' tired, but I know dozing off won't be an issue thanks to the LINE Alert.

The anticipation is killin' me. Nintendo, please, just let us sleep one full night. Put 'em up for preorder. It's the right thing to do.

I bought Meta Knight and Rosalina from a friend today. :)
Hope it wasn't more than MSRP! Either way, congrats.

That's one of the primary intents when we set up the LINE Alerts. Your following point was also the reasoning behind my dividing the Alerts into different types to suit everyone's separate needs: Wave 1, 2, and 3 (Rares in particular), Wave 4 US preorders, and Wave 4 International.

It's much more convenient and efficient, because now you don't get woken up in the middle of the night for a Toon Link or something you might not need or care about. Good times.

Byron, you should give it a try. It's a good chat in the group, I'm tellin' ya!
 
I can even answer texts from my computer.

Pushbullet is fucking awesome! Think I'll keep it even after this whole Amiibo thing blows over.
 
Wave 4 pre-orders are up.
For Amazon Japan
You bastard...you made my heart skip!

Btw, I think I've already told you this, but you're the reason the LINE Alert even exists, because you had the awesome idea for a Google Hangout for notifications, and when I tried to make it work and it failed due to the 10 person limit, CH4OS found LINE and helped us transition there. It all started with the idea you had, and as I said before when I was rallying everyone to get in on it that first night, I couldn't let such a great idea die.

So, thank you for that. I'm very grateful for that, as I sure everyone else in the LINE chat is too. Gotta give credit where it's due!

Hey, how do I join the LINE chat? I PMed you about it but never heard back; is there someone else I'm supposed to PM instead?

Thanks! I want to get in on this LINE chat as I feel it'd be incredibly useful and convenient since I can't always be checking this thread. :)
 
How do I sign up for push bullet? I sent a message to be added to line but never got a reply. Would like something to at least have a chance for wave 4.

The International Alerts don't seperate between waves btw.
 
If someone plans on ordering amiibos from Amazon.jp and think they can order an extra Ness for me, I'd be happy to share part of the shipping cost (and pay for the amiibo, of course). PM me! I've got plenty of positive buyer feedback at the B/S/T thread :)

Also, I'm subscribed to the Pushbullet channel but I'd like to be in on the LINE chat as well. If someone could shoot me a PM or whatever about how to join it, that'd be cool. I really want that Ness.

Oh, really? I thought you got in already. Sorry about that. When I'm busy, CH4OS or Diggeh usually help others get in on the Chat. We're running out of spots, so let's see if we can get you in. I'll PM you shortly.

I just made the order and there is a hard 1-per costumer limit, I wanted to order 2 of each =(. I just ordered ness, lucina and robin, since I´m not worried about the other 3. Maybe I should have ordered Pac-Man too so they could be packed properly. First time using tenso, excited!

Yeah, I know. We can gauge interest in a separate International Alert chat if need be. For now, didn't want to start one too many Alerts.
