man I'm playing through Earthbound for the first time and I need that Ness in my life

 

[Nori Chan]

Guys, I'm going out of the house for a bit.

You know what that means.

GET ON YOUR COMPUTERS, QUICK, EVERYTHING WILL BE IN-STOCK IN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES

Wave 4 is out?

Wave 4 is out?

More like out of the picture!

Spoiler

So much has happened tonight that I'm hopeful!

how the fuck are you playing earthbound while refreshing!?

 

[Pyrokai]

I know Best Buy is releasing their stuff on Friday, but I haven't gotten my confirmation emails letting me know the "good news" that my stuff will be available for pick up in store on Friday. In the past, they sent me an email letting me know. I better get it tomorrow or I'll freak lol. I have MK, Ike, Dedede, and MM all supposed to be there for me Friday.

And get this: I move out of state on Saturday. If they're even the slightest bit late.....I'm doomed

 

[SalvaPot]

I missed D3 again! And I just got the one I preordered from Target on December... and he has this nasty blue paint shine on his left eye that won´t stop bugging me.

So I put him, still closed, next to my TV and I started watching a few episodes of Arrested Development with the GF. Everytime I laughed I saw D3 staring at me. Then it hit me. I kinda like that it doesn´t have the greatest paintjob. Its great just the way it is.

Its King Dedede. Its already perfect.

I´m opening him up tonight.

 

[Diggeh]

He's doing the same thing we're all doing.

Striking out.

Yeah, I haven't gotten anything yet either. I feel like they sent something for Toon Link two days before pick up, but monday being a holiday maybe has them behind?

I had to repost my song! He was asking for it!

 

[th4tguy]

how are people able to tell when this stuff comes back in stock? Is there a site that keeps track of all of this? I just keep refreshing this thread but it seems like whenever anyone posts here it's already over by the time I get to the site.

Yeah, and it doesn't work.

Yeah that's what I thought......oh god oh god oh god

This really doesn't work too well.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

I love the excitement that is happening tonight

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

This really doesn't work too well.

It's worked for me for a lot of the previous releases, but all of these have moved so fast I think maybe it can't keep up.

 

[spindashing]

Yeah, and it doesn't work.

Yep. Had it up for MegaMan and I missed him apparently. Sigh.

 

[Diggeh]

Beliievobo in the amiibo!!

 

[Xamdou]

This really doesn't work too well.

I read the comments section, people there are on point when certain websites have Amiibos in stock.

 

[Fox Mulder]

This really doesn't work too well.

It does, just can't keep up when stuff goes in seconds.

 

[AdanVC]

Woahh this truly feels like y'all hunting. Those preorders popping out randomly and all of them only last like 15 seconds. Glad everyone is getting Mega Man he is the beeeeest ;___;!!

 

[Insaniac]

What a rush tonight! Are we going to see wave 4 preorders before the end of the night?!

please god no. I'd like a little heads up before those go up

edit: Megaman just shipped from Walmart!! 2 more from wave 3 to go!

 

[Diggeh]

We have to stick together!

 

[Fourth Storm]

I'd like to get in on this LINE group. Though I hope for my wallet's sake they hold off on preorders a bit longer.

 

[ngower]

Was Sonic available at all today? If so, did anyone grab an extra? Will work for Sonic amiibo.

 

[Meatwad]

Hi long time lurker and Amiibo enthusiast here. After missing out on IKE yet again even though I responded to the alert immediately I have decided that nowinstock.net is useless and would like to be added to the line. Thank you

He was on Best Buy for a minute or so.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

I have one click buy ready on amazon. MY CLICKING HAND IS READY

 

[Fourth Storm]

I should have an extra Sonic by next week. Will sell for cost + shipping.

 

[TheAggroCraig]

Best Buy shipped my Meta Knight/Dedede/Ike! Now I'm just waiting on MegaMan from them and Sonic from Gamestop... and then I'll be 100% again... for now...

 

[Zubz]

Mega man is available at Amazon, just got him, GOGOGOGOGO

This is abysmal. And there's now this whole GameStop thing saying we're not getting Dedede until next Wednesday? I know that there's a strike affecting production, but the stock is still way too low for that to be a major factor.

Why're we thinking Wave 4's dropping tonight?

Cynicism and panic, mainly.

It's like every night in the Amiibo thread is the night before a Nintendo Direct. Such extremes of emotion. Rampant assumptions.

 

[maxcriden]

This is probably super old, but just in case:

The following is supposedly an internal memo that just went out nationally to GameStop...

- Ike will apparently be fulfilled in two waves
- if you ordered him before December 26, 2014, you will likely get your pre-order this week
- if you ordered after that date, you might not get your amiibo until Spring
- GameStop will not honor more than one per household
- King Dedede will also be fulfilled in multiple sessions
- he will be at most stores on Wednesday, February 25th if you ordered before December 30, 2015
- if you ordered after that date, you might not get your amiibo until Summer
- Mega Man and Sonic orders will all be fulfilled, and should be in by next Wednesday

So much heartbreak.

 

[HardRojo]

Went to a local Peruvian store and they had Wave 3 Amiibos in stock. Ike, MegaMan and Meta Knight were gone, a friend managed to pick the last Lucario and I only picked a Sonic and Toon Link. This is part of the display.

 

[Meatwad]

That's awesome thanks

Just subscribed. Thanks for this! Dont want to miss out on Wave 4 or a possible D3 RESURRECTION

 

[IntelliHeath]

AHHHH! I knew that I would miss out on something today but I didn't expect that Ike would be available on Amazon. Congrats everyone who managed to grab some amiibo today!

 

[Diggeh]

That's awesome thanks

You DO make the money, see? Plus you DO get the honeys, G!

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

Woah wtf happened? Haha!

Can't believe I missed DDD on Amazon AND walmart. what is life.

 

[Gartooth]

[Velcro Fly]

I'd be a scumlord and get another Meta Knight just to trade for a Rosalina ;_;

Man I'm in the same boat.
