I'm counting on you guys
and Nintendo to announce a bunch of stuff at E3 also we need a good OT8 name
!

You mean you need something gr8.
sorry not sorry


Squid Sisters look sooo fresh

I don't really care for alternate colors, though

The packaging on the Sisters is excellent. Fresh indeed.


The alternate colors would have been a lot cooler if both of them were black. I really like the Boy, but the Girl does come off as little more than "hey we changed the clothes." Still buying the bundle regardless, but yeah.

Now, PURPLE(BEST COLOR TM) SQUID WHEN

Amiibo Thread 8 |OT| Make Amiibos Gr8 Again
 
All Koopalings.
All Alt. trophies.
All Final Smash trophies.
All Wii Fit poses.
All Smash Bros. trophies.

Which one of you GAFfers would actually be the one to have ALL Smash Bros Trophies amiibo. The one that's crazy and dedicated enough to spend countless thousands.









I mean aside from Diggeh

Amiibo Thread 8 | Everyone gets a recolor


With the talks about amiibo support on NX, I'm kind of expecting an amiibo blowout at E3. Probably will be the first time the Splatoon ones are seen in public too.

E3 really isn't the type of show to have an amiibo blowout. I know they will feature amiibo, but I don't see it as being that big of a deal, much like last year. I think Nintendo will have a very, very minimal presence at this year's E3.
 
pls

OT updated! I had to custom crop/resize them from the trailers myself since the official website updated with super tiny images! Only the freshest for you guys. ;D
I don't even have Splatoon (yet) but AWWWW YEEEAAAHHH
 
|OT 8 & 9| OTs available only via exclusive bundle

I changed my old "8, 9, & 10" joke to just 8 & 9 to reference the Callie/Marie bundle
 
Shiiiiiit I want those recolors and I don't even play Splatoon. That black boy squid tho 0: Why does green girl look so cute too?! Welp.

When is the solo Wolf Link gonna go for sale? I don't wanna Twilight remake ):< Also I feel sorta bad for Nintendo for their Animal Crossing lineup...
 
I admit I'm tempted to get the recolors, but I don't think I will. If they were in different poses, I would probably, but as is I just don't feel like I need them. The sisters will be mine for sure, though.
 
I haven't followed amiibo closely in a while so forgive my ignorance on this question:

I'm finding myself in need of the Rosalina and Bowser Jr. amiibos. From what I can gather these are/were Target and TRU exclusives. I haven't been able to locate them locally. I know a lot of the hard-to-find amiibo have gotten re-releases and are no longer considered hard to find.

My question is this: What are the odds of finding these two in the wild now? Any word on reprints? Do Target and TRU occasionally restock, or is my only recourse inflated eBay prices at this point?
 
If you don't care about region, you can get Bowser Jr. for $18 right now via several Japanese listings on eBay (a little more expensive than here, but once you figure out tax it's not that big of a difference). Rosalina seems rarer, though, not a lot of low end deals on her.

Unfortunately, I think reprints aren't really announced. I think they just sort of show up and word of mouth spreads them. I may be mistaken, though.
 
Really disappointed that we won't get an official Suicune amiibo. He's one of my favorite Pokémon and I thought there was a real chance when Pokken came out. :(
 
High quality pics of the new amiibo here. Packaging too, in case Diggeh wants to use them for the OT.

As usual the HD images come out after I make my own. Ah well. :P

I see Bowser Jr. all the time at TRU, but Rosalina has been MIA. You might as well just import her.

Pokken should've had amiibo 100%. A trainable AI sparring partner like with Smash!
or maybe I'm just salty that I'm not getting a Machamp amiibo
 
I wonder why TPC hasn't jumped on amiibo? Are they afraid it could potentially cut into other merch maybe? I know Pokemon, by far, has the most merch of any other Nintendo franchise.

If Creepy AC Sheep Llama abducted TPC:

They know that people have to save money before they can spend it on Pokemon, obviously.
 
A Machamp Amiibo would have been so amazing. Damn you, Pokémon Company.

I'm really quite shocked they didn't implement Pikachu, Lucario, Charizard and Mewtwo into Pokken Fighters (and Greninja/Jigglypuff as secret characters) and then released either cards or figures of all the other fighters. Then they could have done stuff like bringing your character to a friend's house which is kind of similar to what I'm understanding they did with the arcade machines in Japan. Kind of disappointed because I would have thrown my money for like, a Gengar or Machamp amiibo.

I'm kind of not surprised either that it seems Pokemon/TPCI is kind of separate from Nintendo proper. It took a really REALLY long time for us to even get something simple like Pokemon Streetpass puzzle....

Personally, I'm hoping that one day in the future they make some for Sun and Moon or a console Pokemon game. While I don't think they'd tackle every single Pokemon, having a nice selection of especially popular characters (and some other unpopular ones) would be great.
 
Don't worry Smack, when The Great Amiibo War happens they will be the first ones to perish at the hands of The Alpaca Tribe
