So those who pre ordered Zelda or any of the first part of wave 2 online from Best Buy, it seems like they will arrive on 12/25 which will end up 12/26.

Has anyone's shipped? I don't get why they are so slow lol
 
Most Dutch retailers/webshops put up their pre-orders this afternoon.

Ordered entire wave 3 + 4 as soon as I got back home just now.
Now thats done I can make dinner without stress.

Also picking up my entire wave 2 tomorrow :D #HYPE ! :D

NY Nintendo store still going strong. 1 of each per customer. If you're in the area get here NOW. Also met a fellow gaffer on line, haha.
 
Just came back from Best Buy and bought the last Diddy Kong they had in stock. I called them about 20 minutes before going there just to make sure they had it and rushed to the store in case someone picked it up before me. Now I just wait for Best Buy to get the remaining Amiibo and pick them up. Diddy Kong was the only one I was not able to pre-order on time, but I was lucky to buy it today. And thankfully, I have all of wave 3 pre-ordered (yes, that means Rosalina & Luma too). :D
 
Ok so this is whats currently available in most stores around my area. Yours might be different but so far Mario, Peach, and Pikachu seem to be the most stocked in stores. Link, DK, and Kirby are stocked but are random. Sometimes theirs a lot of Links and no DK and sometimes theirs lots of DK's but no Kirby's. Samus, Fox, and Yoshi are the hard ones to find in stores but their out their and usually limited to just one. Two if your lucky.
 
So I did not follow closely the launch of the first wave in my country and when I tried I only found Peach. Today I tried again and found several in stock. Went home with Mario, Marth, Pit and Samus.
I feel like a Nintendo whale!
 
So when is Walmart going to release Wave 2?

Or have they already?

Nothing in my local Walmart's. That's my last hope right now for looking at these in person.

No idea. Some are saying the end of this week, others are saying next week and then you have reports saying it will come out after Christmas.
 
If you could get me a villager I would love you

I'm stuck in court or I would
Unfortunately it's one per customer and I'm already on the train home, sorry man.
does this store sell the retail exclusives too? Since this is Nintendo would you find Rosalina available there too or just Target?
None of the retail exclusives were there.
Did they have any little macs?
No Little Macs

Anyone planning on going should definitely coordinate with other gaffers if they plan to get only 1 or 2 of the figures.
 
Why is there no Nintendo store in London? Oh wait, we fucking hate Nintendo over here and fucking love M&M's. Nevermind.
 
Cool, so Shulk, Rosalina atc aren't exclusive to a specific retailer in Europe. :D
I see them up for pre-order, but despite it being tempting to order the ones exclusive in the US due to being rarer I am just going to focus on that Toon Link. Because Toon Link is the one I need.

One description says Toon Link is Hyrule Warriors compatible.

That's a great question. I know that they sell the limited 3DS XL like the NES and Persona Q. I'll ask next time. I also did see Luigi at TRU Times Square.
 
Is best buy letting people go in store and buy today or no?

All I can tell you is that I went to my local one, and they don't have any of them out. They don't have an impressive display to begin with. Asked a rep and he seemed pretty knowledgable and said they would release on the 19 for sure. I told him it said the 17th for some of them, and he mentioned he had no idea why they keep pushing the date, but they would be out for sure on the 19th.
