Welp. The Target app Silver Mario cancellations are going around and I just got mine. Couple that with missing UK Dr./Jr./Olimar and today's forecast is salty with a chance of salt.

They won't even let us get second place!

NINTENDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
 
Since most Targets are only getting 4 of Robin and Lucina is it even worth it to show up as #5?

*assuming they do limit it to 1 per character per person.

Yep, my Silver Mario from Target got canceled, too. I figured that one was pretty shaky. Oh well, maybe I'll get lucky tomorrow at my GS.

Ask the 4 people in front of you if they're getting them or not. If they all are, then yeah it's hopeless. :p
 
Boom Silver Marios cancelled.

I aso remembered my CC was updated with expiration numbers and back code. Not sure where I used it an for which ones. I feel it is going to be a bad Amiibo week.

You think Target would give the ol here is 5 buck gift card, sorry bout dat

Edit: Best Buy just shipped Splatoon 3 pack

Others at the preparing order stage. at least payment was validated still

Just Pacman for me. I don't like that they sent it earlier than the rest, probably means the others are going to be a bit longer.
So far the ones Best Buy shipped out for me are Robin, Lucina, and the Splatoon three pack. Yeah I was kinda surprised those three were the first to be processed.

Just had an amiibo dream - this is how you know the wave 4 armageddon is upon us. I've only missed Jigglypuff and (in the dream) a neighbour was a scalper and tried to sell me Puff for $150.

Well, I called Gamestop about my incorrect state, and they said if I had noticed the mistake sooner, if could have easily been resolved, but the dude basically created a new order in my name with the correct address, and said it would either be delivered with this same batch, or would be with the next re-stock of Ness, which he said he is almost 100% certain will happen...

...so....yay? Do I win? Also, to the Gamestop employee who rang me up, how do you get your own fucking state wrong!?!?!

Ness and Jiggles are officially shipping. I ordered Greninja from Japan, not expecting TRU to actually have decent stock, and I have the commons on order from BBY and just awaiting their confirmation.

So now all I need is Robin and Lucina...I'm going to try TRU and hope that I get there early enough, but unfortunately I really have no idea how early that should be. I also hope they're smart enough to give tickets and/or limiting people so one scalper can't show up at 10pm tonight and just buy all their stock.

Seems a bit scummy to complain about a glitch.

Completely depends on your luck. Others are getting a "sorry the item is out of stock" response.

I'll pass, maybe Target will send out a discount code or something like TRU did last wave.

Yeah I wouldn't feel right about that, I had a feeling going into it these would be cancelled. Silver Mario should be one of the easier ones to get tomorrow anyway.

Just reporting, not advocating :)

Do you live near a college, or within a reasonable commute to another state? There are probably tons of people who don't live in the state they are shopping in.

You may get 2 then.
I've had the wrong State before and it still got delivered on time. The Zip code is what really matters.

I ordered it in Bloomington IL, which is the same town and state that I live in, and where the employee lives and works as well. He put Bloomington ID as the address. A slip-up I'm sure, as he was probably feeling a bit pressured by the whole Ness-Gamestop-Network-Meltdown thing that happened...but come on man.
