Considering Target never had Dedede, Ike, etc, and now they suddenly have the entire wave, I'm considering going at 2 AM for Silver Mario. >___>

Do you mean in-store? Because I ordered Dr. DeDe online from Target.

I wish I could get higher res art but that's the best Smash can do! I need to make a Diggehmiibo somehow.

That's what it means.
Can't wait for ness and jigglypuff to appear at my doorstep so I can be done with this shitshow.

I won't believe NA Ness exists until I hold it in my hands after opening the GS shipping box.

for some stores it seems that way your best bet is to call your store next week to find out.

Knowing how mine handled Rosalina, I highly doubt that. Luckily, I just want the Splatoon amiibo...
Really? Ah okay, well that makes me feel better then if it's just a Target thing.

It was 10 days ago now that "Amiibo News" reported on a Best Buy employee screen that showed 5,363 Meta Knight amiibo at a Distribution Center and that a restock was "imminent." I shudder at the possibility they'll be released on Friday.
Lmao the circus never ends

I was wondering about the limit of 2 myself. I checked my Target Sunday ad and the footnote about the limit of 2 was only on the Jigglypuff listing and not Silver Mario.
I suppose the bright side of that is that you won't have resellers buying multiples of a character giving people a better chance to get Jiggly or Silver Mario. Still, it stinks for those who hoped to get just one of each of the new Wave 4 characters for themselves.
I'm starting to be optimistic about getting Jiggly and Greninja on Friday though. School is actually still in here till June so that may cut down on people in line.

It states limit 2 characters per guest. So I can buy 8 Silver Mario and 25 Jigglypuff, right? That's two characters. 8 of one amiibo, 25 of the second. Two amiibo total.
They need to change this to "one (or two) per character per person." Else we'll have intimidation, parking lot brawls, police intervention...

Well that's it for me. Just checked with my friend and his store is getting screwed over by the local Nintendo distributor. Only character who's getting double figures in stock is Pacman and that's less than 20. Not to mention he's not getting them all and the higher price. I'll only get (try to get) the ones I absolutely want.

Total of 2, not just 2 per character. Change your plans folks.

As I have said before all depends on how it's enforced. Could easy buy two at electronics and then two up front.
Alaskanbullworm

Yeah, if they're like the Target I go to, Electronics is far away from the front registers and they really have no "back" space to have Amiibos at their Electronics hub. So all of their inventory is just out on the shelves.
But last time, it was just a free for all for Rosalina, maybe they'll actually have a system in place and hand out tickets. When Rosalina happened, they had no idea about anything and people were literally just running to the Electronics section regardless of who was in line where or how long they've been waiting
Wow so I guess Amazon really did decide to pass up on preorders considering we are now in the week of release with just 5 days to go. I mean even if they were to put them up on Monday (which would mean without a long notice which was promised by a rep), after the time it would take for processing and release day shipping I wouldn't consider it a preorder anymore.
We are living in dark US amiibo times indeed.

My Amiibo collection is basically the UN. Amiibos from all over the world.
Yeah after the recent drop in prices on Japanese wave 1 and 2 amiibo, my collection is now more foreign than domestic.

I just want a Ness and a Pacman from this round.

Pacman should be easy but the Ness will cost you an arm, leg, or first born.

I don't suppose they have said anything a out having any available in store this Friday, have they?
Ness is $38 on Amazon already.
I don't think it's been said, no. I mean it really sounds like they sold their entire stock (online and in store) when they had their website crash that preorder day.

I read it. I verified that the tweets actually existed. I hope the social media manager is misinformed. I know there's still time for an internal memo to go out changing/clarifying the policy. I'm losing sleep.

Not really new. Target has never given a hint of rosalina returning and didn't carry most of wave 3 at all.
Not if it's like my store was for Rosalina. They kept them behind the counter and rang you up there, it was impossible to take one up to the front.

I won't be satisfied with the @AskTarget Twitter response. I just sent an email to Target Customer Service:
Fingers crossed for the answer we all want to hear.

Did you seriously compare amiibo to choosing between your children? Wave 4 really is causing people to sink to a whole new level.

its more like people dont like being told no personally im glad i imported the ones i already wanted all i need come friday is the splatoon 3 pack
FYI guys:
I saw a charge on my card for $28 from Gamestop, and found out it's the price of 2 Amiibos. Looks like they are starting to put charging through! These are for my 2 courtesy ones mind you, that would get release day delivery. Not sure about regular shipments, especially since the others I paid with gift cards. Either way, should be shipping out soon
