Are we expecting Yarn Yoshis to go up in the US any time soon?


Or is the fall release date probably going to keep them from going up for a while?

I guess I can always use some of the other stuff for trades here.

Lucario for Greninja, got the 3 pack Splatoon for...some of the rarer ones.

Sigh.
 
I can assure you Pit and Villager are real but we can continue the quest for Rosalina together, my Amiibro ;__;
We're in this together, whether we're celebrating or crying in a corner over the continued search for the mythical. I would just to see one... ;_;

back when pit came out I bought two of him for some reason, and I still a packaged one, and just realized they became rare. maybe I have trade material for jigglypuff now.
I'd say you certainly do.

Received a $5 coupon from TRU, so ordered a Mario from the Super Mario line for $9.


Still disappointed and not been able to preorder anything from Wave 4. Splatoon, Ness...nothing. Wanted everything to actually open and use them. Will see.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.

At this point it's the only way to survive the amiipocalypse.

I left mine sealed from Dec to the end of Jan. Once I opened them, it felt oh so good and I don't care anymore about mint copies. Only if I have a second copy would I care about it being mint and all.

i like the box artwork and colors a lot and have them lined up where I keep my wiiu and games. I have no interest in these as investments, there's just not much of a reason for me to use any. I'm about to start captain toad, but toad's use is probably better held off until you finish the game.


lol, where were these kinds of articles last wave?

I only wanted ness from this wave and put up with gamestop's issues for some official merch. Jigglypuff was a bonus I lucked into at the right time, so I'm good until the fall waves. Which is when the salt will have faded and we'll fall for the same bullshit all over again.

I haven't paid much attention to amiibos for a while, what's the deal with them this time? Is the release of wave 4 particularly worse than the previous waves or is it just more of the same shit burning people out?

Think of it like this, get all those rare amiibos that were hard to get and then multiply it by 1000.

Had the day off today and spent most of it waiting and refreshing for amazon to post preorders. Please just post it so I can do something productive with my day. :'(

Al I have is the samus and the now preorder amiibo boy inkling. I'm kinda glad I have saved the heartache early on to know not to try and get every amiibo like some of you all and feel the burn when there sold out.

A couple weeks ago I was at one and they had a TON of Diddy/Donkey on the same clearance. It took me back to when Diddy was hard to find and people were paying ridic prices.

I wept for them.

I just want to say this thread has been an invaluable resource. I would not have gotten my Lucina, Pac-Man and Inkling Girl amiibos last night if it weren't for the timely posting of their links by gaffers. I've now gotten every amiibo I want, I'll only get another if they make an Arwing amiibo(which is a good possibility since Miyamoto wants to see it happen).
 
I'll post one more time before leaving the thread for the day.

NFM has 20 different amiibos available on their site. Most of them are $8.99 this week. Peach and Donkey Kong are $6.99. LIMIT 1 on all $8.99 ones.

Good evening folks. Just got home from work. I checked and it seems like nothing has changed on Amazon, Walmart, or Gamestop websites. Any new news from the day?

Splatoon amiibos went up on BB. Other than that, not much since the middle of the night TRU preorders.

All exclusives are done, and BestBuy(splatoon earlier today came and gone), TRU and Gamestop are completely done.

So that leaves Amazon, Walmart and Target for all non exclusives.

Thanks. I got my Splatoon 3 pk from Gamestop yesterday so I'm good. I saw the TRU chaos this morning but it looks like there will be an in-store pre-order for Greninja at the end of April so I have a shot.
 
Been out all day, still no amiibos..really want the splatoon pack, pac-man, wario, and whatever else I can get my hands on but those three are the ones I really want

this topic needs a little humor

You're right.

What happened when Nintendo asked for more amiibo from it's manufacturer?

They said they were all sold out. GET IT?! BECAUSE NO ONE CAN GET THE AMIIBO...

I'm in a hurry to leave, awkward humor is all I have at the moment.
 
So I was informed that my local Wal-Mart got 10 Golden Marios in this morning. And apparently, all were bought by ONE person.

So much for enforcing that 1-2 per customer limit.
 
Any good low impact iPad game recommendations while I play the Amiibo F5 game?

I was thinking of finally trying Plants vs. Zombies.
