Hmmm, maybe that's what everyone is doing when I see them with a smartphone in their car.

Still boxed too. I refuse to open them until I have the entire collection.
Starting at five I have a 40 min Subway, 1 hr drive, and then fun at....
THE CONTAINER STORE!!
Then back to Brooklyn.
I won't be home and chillin at the PC until 11 at the earliest. They will certainly be going up in that window. (if they are going up today. If not, they will wait until I'm at the basketball game Wed evening, lol)

You win hahah, better have that amazon 1-click ready! Honestly I won't be surprised at all when they don't go up today at all.

Sooo...in order to make the Amazon wait/F5 grind a bit more entertaining I thought I would throw out the following wager...
US Amazon pre-orders for Wave 4 will not go up by midnight eastern time today, April 6th. If they do I'll take a permaban on GAF.
I'll make a new wager on US Amazon pre-order availability each day until I correctly select the day they go live or until I'm banned, whichever comes first.

Changed my avatar because that's what amiibo have turned me into.
With amazon.ca putting pre-orders up I'm stuck at my computer, like so many others, refreshing the amazon.com pages...

September is Mario Maker. I think Yoshi will probably be July in NA

....why?
Yoshi is Fall for NA.

They stated fall for NA, so i would doubt that.

Yoshi is Fall, announced in direct last week.
Aww me too. It hurts.
Could July not count as Fall? I was thinking Summer ended up at May? Shit, I don't know, August then? I just can't see them releasing in it September, because we have Mario Maker and Rodea then. I know Rodea is third party, but I would assume Nintendo is hoping to space out releases.

Just to make the ridiculousness of F5ing a bit more interesting.
It'll be October. Summer is generally June-August.
Gave me a false sense of having a leg up on the competition. :/

That's because Wave 4 is gone from the site completely. They started by removing Pacman last night I think.

It's not business hours on Tuesday yet for another ~15+ hours. It's Monday afternoon right now.

FYI - updated pictures in the bottom. show the LEDs in the fron not the back. They look better in the front.
Oct could work since Fatal Frame will likely release then and they appeal to two very different markets.
Man where the fuck is their Live Chat people~
I always get mixed up with seasons. Though I would expect Fatal Frame would be the October game, though I guess there could always be two.
Awww dude that is so awesome and helpful!! Bookmarked and thanks!
Summer begins late June ends in late September.
They're talking about the ones that they added to the cart, but couldn't find a location to ship to on checkout.

Just the listings. No one's orders have been canceled.

Which is why I am pretty ticked off at Yoshi's Wooly World getting pushed to Fall.
So nothing to play on Wii U during May (not interested in Splatoon), June, July, or August. Sigh...

Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available.
Do I get a note four seconds later when it becomes unavailable again, too?
A lot of mobile sites are really really bad. Its super annoying. Not just for insane amiibo hunting, but just for everything.

Sucks, but the wiiu is my secondary console.
The apps are better, but I'm on windows phone and don't even get many of those.
Yeah most of the stuff I want to use aren't even listed on mobile :/ "Making it easy" doesn't come with a lot of options :/

Will probably play Puzzles and Dragons all summer long and catch up on my PS4 backlog.

Thank you! I know what I'll be doing this weekend.

Anyone sign up and trust Amazon's Alert Me function for these amiibo? By the time you would get the e-mail, they would probably be long gone.
I've heard it's too slow. Wouldn't risk it.

Yeah the Baseball Bat case is a premium, but I bought it during a B1G1 sale so it was both for $50-ish Got extra cases for Amiibo that I do not care to take in and out.
Planning on unboxing some and keeping others sealed until I know what is going to be rare or not after the craze is gone.
There's no "probably" about it. Don't trust it.

Decided the 3DS new release BoxBoy has enough to engage me and little enough I can set it down and not worry about missing amiibo.
The downside, all I can think about is how much I want a Qbby amiibo.
He'd likely be made the same way Game & Watch will be, 2D model made 3D object.

It works fine for most things, just too slow when something sells out as fast as these do.
As a prime member would love this feature as prime exclusive, or even better, get an hour heads up or even an hour early access. Bet they would double their prime subs.
Can I preorder the preorder-preorder?

You jest, but that's every Wave 4 Ebay auction right now if you think about it.
At some point we will be buying hypothetical amiibos for potential Nintendo IPs from phantom scalpers off pseudo eBay using money children we might have could conceivably earn in one of many timelines.
