My store now telling people that it is sold out.

 

[Jagsrock]

At the register, just waiting and complaing with all the other salty amiibros.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Let's see how long my patience holds before I give up waiting at my local GS.

 

[CorvoSol]

Bwahahaha Ness sold out while I was waiting for the server to let me through at EBGames

fuuuuck this life

 

[Mesoian]

Looks like the rumor of preorders being at 5est might be true, GS hasn't updated a thing yet on their end.

 

[Craig Majaski]

When was this news posted? As far as I knew it was 3pm CT for both.

It was posted this morning to all GameStop stores. In order to allow for demand at the stores - the online site would not be allowing preorders for the next wave of amiibos until a later time.

 

[RootCause]

man... this is what I am imagining right now..
first person shows up to gamestop a fan of earthbound lines up to get ness..

second person shows up to gamestop just a fan of amiibos in general, thinks stupid scalper gonna keep me from getting mine to the first person.

the third through 9th people do the same as the second person are just amiibo fans but hate everyone else in line for being scalpers.

the 10th person is actually a scalper and is happy because he is merely 10th in line and should be able to get his product.

people 11-20 come in and are just fans and want amiibos but are angry because they are 11-20th in line and all the freaken scalpers before them are going to steal them and potitally get multiple copies to sell because anyone that comes before them can't malignantly want them

@_@

The Amiibo life.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

What if this is all a plan for Nintendo to destroy every website starting with Club Nintendo.

You never have to get better at online play if there's no internet.

 

[PadWarrior]

3 people with their friends and family member and three little kids saying they're only grabbing it to resell. This is horrible.

 

[LiK]

Gamestop site died, ROFL

 

[JimJamJones]

The thirst for Amiibo is all too real

[weevles]

[Cbajd5]

Murder them and hope the jury is filled with amiibo collectors.

 

[TheSlySoul]

I will try after work.
If I cannot get one, I am going to beat up Ness in Smash 3DS all night.

 

[Mesoian]

[GitarooMan]

I'm sure this is known but Best Buy has the new Amiibos on the site listed as coming soon. You can not order them yet, but they are there.

For example: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nintendo-amiibo-figure-super-smash-bros-series-robin-multi/5712035.p?id=1219656191326&skuId=5712035

[Macho Madness]

They went up for preorder earlier.

 

[Frogstep]

Friend at GS told me they won't have any of the wave 4's on the site till after a couple hour(s) after the stores.

 

[AdanVC]

In store network crashes out. Some guy ran out and slammed the door.
The thirst is real.

No way! That is just ridiculous tbh.

 

[DonutTurtle]

My store now telling people that it is sold out.

Gulp and I'm stuck at work like so many.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

lol each time Lucina goes up she'll be gone in like 2 minutes.

 

[hawk2025]

I'm sure this is known but Best Buy has the new Amiibos on the site listed as coming soon. You can not order them yet, but they are there.

They were already up, and they are already gone.

 

[Somnid]

Skylander and Disney Infinity already have the market, who's going to buy Amiibos? I mean Disney characters are so popular, way more than Nintendo. Nobody even knows who Ness is.

The cashier is trying so hard to understand

already sold out.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

All store servers have crashed, online preorders are not yet live, every local gamestop near me has a line in excess of 25+ people.

already sold out.

It only means they're putting up the listing, those listings existed before noon.

 

[crimnos]

Lines up with the 5 ET rumor. Sounds legit.

[vinnygambini]

Imagine Pink Gold Peach pre-orders.

The CIA will have to intervene.

[Durock]

At this rate by the time my wife is able to pay they will all be sold out

 

[zulux21]

The Amiibo life.

[Maverick T51]

"The service is unavailable"... Well that's nice.

 

[GitarooMan]
