No global release dates add to the confusion, Shulk's out in Canada but not in America.

Gaf, I never received an email for my TRU Lucario being processed but when I look it up the status says "Item(s) located in stock)". It also I can expect my package on or before 2/4. Should I worry?

Thats what mine said before i received notice that it was shipped. I think you should be fine.

I really want a Luma amiibo (by itself). They're my favorite addition to the Mario series in the last 10 years.

And I'll take them of other colors as well.

Wonder when Nintendo is going to start shortpacking alternate color Amiibos (that's where the real hunt begins).

Agree'd about Luma's introduction into the series, but no no no, they better not do the alt costumes next! I'd have to just ignore that nonsense, it'd be too much!

Well Sega, Microsoft, Sony, and Atari all lost similar lawsuits to what on would put in this scenario so... idk why it wouldn't work again... if your wanting to go through the effort...

So as someone who wants to get a few amiibos I am having a hard time understanding the release date(s) for the most recent set.

As an example I see Shulk posted in the thread, yet gamestops site says its not out until the 13th, same as Ike, and no store within 100mi has them.
I'd like a Shulk and the fire emblem chars for the upcoming 3DS game content [I am assuming Shulk is will do something with Xenoblade 3D], but the distribution of these things seems totally batshit!

Welcome to the club. Here, have a drink, you'll be here a while.
 
It occurred to me after watching that GameXplain video that Pokken Fighters would be perfect for amiibo. They've already got the smash ones for Pikachu and Lucario that people can use, and presumably, Jiggs and Charizard will be added as playable characters too.

So, Machamp, Suicune, Gardevoir and whoever else they add can all have amiibos too where you can save stats and maybe color schemes too.
 
Do we know generally when any pre-orders are going up for the next wave?

There was talk about February 1 at some point after the reveal, I know.

Or is it just going to be some random weekday at 5am EST?

...

(Let me guess.)

Haven't asked you yet how was Apex? I don't think I saw your mentioning of it?

Oh yeah, it came up a ton of pages back. So, I won my first fight against Sheik, then I fought another Sheik and lost, so I got sent to Loser's Bracket. I was kickin' ass, fighting my way out and all the way to semi finals of my pool, beating a Pikachu and Villager along the way, but I lost to Donkey Kong. Both matches I lost were so stupidly close, it's unbelievable. The DK even messed up and lost a stock early, but made a crazy comeback and won.

I wasn't bitter about it, but I really wanted to go the distance. It was exciting as hell though, had my headphones on playing "You Will Know Our Names" from Xenoblade and Final Destination Ver. 2. I was in the zone! I'm definitely gonna do this again, it was such a rush.

Surprisingly, aside from 2 casual matches, not a single other Mega Man to be found. Everyone was too busy being Sheik or Diddy Kong...ugh. I think this sums it up nicely:

I had a hutch that Charizard and Greninja would have high chance to become playable characters in Pokken due to their popularity. I'm not even sure about Jigglypuff tho.
 
My 2 rosalina's and 1 bowser shipped from target!

We wanted to let you know that item(s) from order (Order # 1xxxxxxxxx) placed on 02/01/2015 have shipped. If your order contains more than one item, it may ship in multiple packages—check the details below. You are not charged for items until they ship.
Thanks for shopping at Target.
Team Target
 
Well, TRU confirmed an extra toon link, bowser, shiek and lucario I forgot I ordered, funny enough, in that order I had 2 lucarios and only one of them is shipping, the other is delayed.

My buddy in houston is going to be so excited, he didn´t knew Lucario released on the 30th or that there was exclusives (He preordered them all on gamestop but wasn´t aware other stores got exclusives too)

Speaking off, is anyone getting an extra Meta Knight? I rarely make trades her (Ironic, since I made the trade/help thread), but my buddy was still not able to get one. If he doesn´t get one I may want to trade for it, I have Captain Falcon, Pit and Lucario for it.

For the love of god buy me one too please :( I'll pay for shipping and shitm

Hero Prinny gets one.

I've got two more to go. Here are the conditions:

  • Pay me the full cost ($12.99 + Chicago sales tax + shipping cost & shipping materials) + 3% via paypal (or list as gift.)
  • Be someone filling out their collection and not someone who is going to flip this on Ebay or Craigslist.
  • Be in the US. Sorry, international folks, but I'm doing this as a favor and international shipping adds some stress I don't need right now.
  • Be aware that because of weather and work I won't be able to ship until Friday (you can pay me then).

Im interested
 
Just got my Lucario and Rosalina from Play-Asia! None of my other Wave 3's have shipped (have them pre-ordered from a variety of locations - Best Buy, Amazon, Gamestop), but I've lost track of when these things are even coming out. I just wait for the shipping e-mails.

I kind of love Mariotehplumber in a weird way "I HATE THIS CHARACTER SO I BOUGHT ALL OF HER MERCH AND GAVE NINTENDO THE MONEY MAKING THEM THINK EVERYONE LOVES HER" is basically what he's doing, it's pretty hilarious.

It's very fascinating to me too how he is a complete moron. It's like watching an someone do something stupid like bellyflopping from 20 ft high into a pool, you can't help but watch the idiocy.

The most complete of morons, absolutely. Thinking about him makes me and my friend cringe.
 
Just got my confirmation email from Target as well. It doesn't track yet though. Now I'm just hoping the TRU delay isn't too long.
 
Going to be leaving for Target(s) in a few minutes. Will do my best to get a second one if I can for someone here. Can't make any promises and I'm hearing the roads aren't the best so I'm only going to maybe the two closer ones to me. Here's hoping the blizzard from yesterday scared everyone away!
