Does anyone know how Best Buy's website works? If the amiibo is sold out, it says so. Like Pit for example. However, Marth still says ADD TO CART, but only available for store pickup. There are zero stores in my area who have him in stock. Does that mean that there is at least one store in some random, unknown zip code to me that still has him available at the store?
No one should have to be watching like a hawk and only having 30 minutes to get in on a figure. It's sad that at this point for us that is becoming the standard it seems for online preorders in the US.
Just checked out the amiibo display in my local game (uk) and they're overflowing with Captain Falcons, they're like 3/4 of the amiibos on display. No Little Mac at all.
I have come to the realization that I will never get marth.

Wait, did Rosalina go up again overnight for pre-order and then sell out again?
Target's handling of Rosalina is God awful. Just limit it to 1 per person and they should be fine, right? Was there a limit at all?
Import. He's constantly being restocked on European sites.

Nintendo treats the NA market like peasants. We get shafted by everything they make.
Folks here were saying that there was a limit of three, but I was too blinded by excitement at the time that I just ordered one and never really looked...

Do you know of any reputable sites?
It's possible that American demand is just higher, which leads NoA unable to catch up, though.

We don't know how many went up or if there will be more but the fact that they are so late to get preorders up is a problem. Though it would be nice if they pulled a TRU and just cancelled all orders and fixed it to 1 per order (I doubt their system could do something like 1 per address). I would revel in the mini-panic as scalpers have to cancel orders and get their seller rating torn apart.
Amazon Germany says they're getting him again on the 27thDo you know of any reputable sites?

Hell, if they could a reliable street date and release for these things, I would not mind getting up at the asscrack of dawn to hunt these down at store openings.
These release dates are a fucking mess though on the B&M side.

No because the people in NA will buy multiple Amiibos then sell them on ebay. Im pretty sure most of the sales came from NA. This is why we keep selling out. The DAY they came out I could not find MARTH or Villager anywhere and I live in Chicago.
So is Captain Falcon going to be readily available then?
That's good news. He's one of the amiibos I really want.
Got my Lucario preorder cancelled as well.Of course NOW they cancel it after their B1G1 40% off deal from yesterday. I'm probably just gonna say screw it and try my luck by walking in my TRU store and finding one. I am NOT paying $7.99 more for shipping.

Shipping should be free for preorders, no? I didn't have to pay for shipping on Lucario.Got my Lucario preorder cancelled as well.Of course NOW they cancel it after their B1G1 40% off deal from yesterday.

They're charging you for shipping? Thought it was free.
Fuck this, TRU should honor my original Lucario order. This amiibo hunt went from fun to frustrating.

I can confirm I only ordered one Lucario and TRU cancelled my pre-order. I just pre-ordered it again, so all is well, but I would have been pissed if I would not have been able to get it.
