Amiibo Thread 3 | Where release dates are made up and preorders don't matter!

I'm already up because I couldn't sleep long. Think I'm going to go ahead and go to the target that opens in two hours and camp out.

Good luck with Rosalina and which ever else you're hunting for today, everyone!

Also, the Target mobile app is a tease. It had the "Add to Cart" option for Ike and DeDeDe, but each time I press it it just says product unavailable :(

Hmm.. zooming out changed it to in stock. So um... yeah lol

I tried one more time and did list view this time. Here

Oh no. That last store is the one I'm going to. I think maybe the app is buggy because at first when I input my zip it showed unknown then in stock, then back to unknown and back to in stock again. I'm hoping that's the case anyway. :(

There's one but I'm not driving so it'll be a hassle

Ahh I see. Yeah that would be a hassle then. Call an hour before they open and hope someone picks up?

Could be. I've generally noticed that the unknown and in stock sometimes just bugs around. So if it's unknown your chances are pretty high. If it just flat out says out of stock, then you should be worried.
 
Has Shulk been available for preorder imports anywhere in the world? I preordered one at Gamestop but may not be able to pick it up within the 48 hour window.
 
By eck, I go away for one day to come back to a whole new thread already 27 pages in.

Good luck all you amiibros across the pond on "R-day". I'll stroke my Rosalina for you all to send out good luck vibes.
 
... Eff it, I want to just go to the Best Buy and see if there's a line outside already and laugh if so and just throw my arms up and go home.

Happy Hunting, everybody!!
 
There's like....virtually no chance Meta Knight will be out at Best Buy this morning too, right? Last I heard they hadn't even announced an official release date.

I hope for no more retailer exclusives period, but Best Buy seems to be doing an especially bad job.
 
good night amiibogaf.

just came home from the ICU Waiting Room, dad's sleeping in surgery (heart bypass surgery if you're wondering)

Good luck to all Americans finding Amiibo.

@Sphinx
I WILL PAY YOU BY TOMORROW OR TUESDAY. PROMISE.

13th of february? For an EU Rosalina?

That's strange... She was out circa 16th of january in Europe, and is pretty much sold out everywhere now. Do they wait for a restock when Wave 3-B arrives here?

Hmm, I'll have to keep an eye on it then. :|

My order (01/09/15) translates from Italian to: "Forecast delivery: Monday, February 9, 2015 - Wednesday, February 11, 2015 by 20:00" "Not Yet Shipped"

Best wishes to your Dad from all of us.

Also, looks like Toon Link is available in every Target near me. Don't think he'll be rare but I wanna grab one anyway.
 
I HAVE AWAKENED

WHAT DID I MISS?

Christ I'm hungry, need to pee.

For those who didn't camp out, I have one question: Tell me have you ever really, really really ever loved a woman?
 
I'm the first at my Target at 6:15am. I'm probably going to just chill in my nice warm car for a while and eat my breakfast. God bless Bojangles for opening at 5:30 in the morning.
 
Finally done...

Am in the UK, I received a Rosa from Game, but my Zavvi one was cancelled. Both these happened on 23 Jan.

A friend has an order with Amazon.it for the same date you have.
 
Continuing my all nighter after finishing some homework in the lab, just two and a half hours to go. Lucario got away from me the other day. There were three left after preorders and I was like 20 minutes late getting one.
 
Good luck everyone. Kind of hoping a scalper comes in my store because I want to see an adult throw a fit when they realize they can't buy 10 Rosalinas.
 
Sitting in the Target on my real-life Pokemon hunt. I did my research, I have my pokedexes (ie my phone and 3DS) and now I am at the right place at the right time because if I miss out I will have to get one from some far-off land.

Seriously though, no one else is here and I'm just considering running to Dunkin Donuts because I called last night and the store has like 30 of them available. lol

Thanks go to my wife for starting me on this journey on Christmas morning...
 
Waiting at Target, and there's only one other person. It's a sweet older woman that was waiting in line at TRU on Friday morning as well :) hope it's just us because we made a pact to stay warm in the car unless others show up!
 
After seeing the utter Failure that was the Lucario Launch at TRU, I'm not holding out my hopes that I'll be able to walk in and buy a Rosalina today (since I won't be able to get out to a Target until well after stores open) -but Good Luck to anyone who's going hunting for her today, and I hope you manage to get her.

I'm really hoping that most Targets will be decent enough to set Limits on her, and not let one single jerk walk out of the store with like 20 Rosalinas. XP
 
damn... I cannot believe I am up 4 hrs before Target opening. I feel like a kid waking up on Christmas morning (excitement) waiting for my parents to get up so I can open presents.

I didn't want to worry you... I think Nintendo may have promised them a couple of Rosalina with the next batch, which should arrive around this date. That's interesting, we could get some stock by then. I think it happened with Wave 1, in fact (some numbers on Amiibos seems to suggest they were produced again).

But should you find one in the coming days, I wouldn't take chances... Rosalina has become a rarity here even before the official release date. That's the *only* Amiibo I've *never* seen in stores.
 
leaving soon hoping to snag toon link and rosalina as i have sheik, king dedede, ike, sonic, and mega man all pre-ordered at gamestop so i dont have to worry about those figures.
 
Good luck to all you East Coasters. Stay safe and may you all get your Rosalina without too much hassle! I can't wait to hear everyones horror stories so I know what I'm in for in a few hours. lol
 
I was ready to go and had my foot halfway out the door before deciding that this was a stupid idea with a weather advisory out. Gonna wait this one out and see how she goes. Good luck guys!
