I nabbed Samus, Fox and Link in the first week of amiibos being around (never saw Marth, Villager, Wii Fit). I never thought it'd be hard to find Link. Geez.

Maybe gonna go look around for the rest of the commons to wrap up Wave 1 after I get off my volunteering shift.

I ordered Rosalina from Amazon about a week ago, but paired it with a book that comes out in June so that I got free shipping. Have Amazon already shipped their Rosalinas? Should I remove the book from my order and just pay the shipping for any chance of getting one?

Is there an official list somewhere?

I'm sure I'd just buy it, come home and go to bed,but I'd snag it at midnight anyway.

don't think so. not yet, at least

someone asked EB's twitter about a potential midnight launch a few weeks back. Don't exactly follow social media so iunno if there's an update to that. I'm hoping my EB said no because they haven't received any news about the launch, not because they already got a no from HQ or some horseshit :(

but Rainbow Curse is on the 20th. perfect time to... not have stock of Kirby? lol

Kiby's been out since the begibnning. There's ample stock of him still. When Nintendo stop production of Kirby it won't out right affect existing stock.

How easy (or hard) is it to remove the EB Games sticker from the box?

I think it's easy enough if you go slow after prying enough off.

Wait what? Is there a sticker? Just on the ones that are bought in store right? Not on the ones ordered online right?

Wait...never mind. I know this answer. Shulk never came with a sticker.

My Samus I bought in store had one. The Wave 3s I preordered had none. I guess the preordered ones have no use for a sticker when they aren't going up on shelves.

^ that's what I figured. I still want my store to open midnight.

It's actually getting rarer

tbh, that's how it is in my area. handful of Mario, Pikachu and Peach, no Link and Samus, Kirby about to disappear, Zelda and Diddy everywhere, lol not even Bowser and he's supposed to be overstock

Seeing the route they're going with Xenoblade 3D and amiiibo support, I hope they keep this up.

Bring series to the n3DS that can use the amiibos, like Battle Network Collection (pls) and Megaman. Just something to make these other ones not so useless.

I confirmed with my ebgames that they will be doing a midnight launch. As with the midnight for Smash/ORAS, this midnight coming midnight launch is going to be quite expensive as I have pre-ordered the Majora's Mask 3DS XL, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Collector's Edition and Majora's Mask.

You don't get to bring friends.

Any luck for people who didn't preorder from eb you think?

You could always give it a shot. The only thing I know when it comes to midnight launches for Ebgames, is that always accommodate those with Platinum Edge Cards first, so if you have one, your chances might be better.
 
the reason why your shulks and rosalinas are getting stolen is because of a scalper.

I think its best not to link to that guy/give him atention. I think there is more wrong with him than just being a dick and its not good to encourage him.

fucking dickhead.

Didn't bother since I don't really use Twitter.

I blame nintendo for this - it's really dumb to make these things almost impossible to buy.

It's true but it's hard for them to fight scalpers. If they stock too much scalpers won't even buy them.

Lol do people buy overpriced crap like this on Craigslist? People in Vancouver are so damn cheap I doubt they'd pay that much when they can buy it on eBay for the same price and not have to meet up with some guy lol.

Just a reminder to anyone ordering that the "cineplexholiday" coupon code will get you $10 off an order of $40 or more!

If you get 3 it's basically 3 for $30 eh lol, not bad.

Link and Sheik are sold out now...lol that was fast as hell. I didn't order anything, but was tempted to order a spare Link...oh well.
