alright Toad and Luigi pre-ordered at Best Buy... not sure if I'm gonna keep them but eh

I think the Super Mario line Luigi amiibo looks waaaaay better than the Smash one

But that Luigi doesn't go well next to the violent killer Smash Mario. :(

I'd have to buy Mario too and I don't even want MP.

I ordered Peach and Toad.

I haven't heard anything about my Shulk pre-order yet but it was a ISPU so hopefully the store will call me tomorrow...

Guy had to check my order and the items and payment, I like that CSR rep but this whole thing didn't make sense.

Will QA for food.
Just received my order confirmation for Sheik, Ike and Dedede from Amazon.ca. No word from Shulk from EBgames (paid with a gift card), but I'm not too worried.

I've never pre-ordered anything from EB Games online before. It's for in-store pickup. What am I going to need to bring to pick it up? Will my husband be able to do it because I'll be home with a recovering toothless cat all day?
 
Yep, got same reply:

I imagine the phone number tied to the purchase would be enough. That's if you don't have an order confirmation/receipt or something like that.

This must be some EB exclusive bullshit or Toys 'R Us just fails.

I asked TRU if they will have new figures on Friday for Amiibos, she said she didn't know and they don't have anything in the back lol.

She said Lucario is Feb. 1 though but they don't have it? So wtf.

I guess waiting for TRU to open on Friday won't be worthwhile, I'll just pick an EB.

EDIT: Called another store just in case and he said they ARE supposed to be in, but might be delayed due to vendor port issues or something.

Lol my Metaknight order says 2/28 now, great.

EB just called me to let me know I can come pick up Toon Link, Bowser and Shulk tomorrow.
Just that Sonic is delayed due to Nintendo.

So my Gamecube Adapter just arrived. Packaging is smaller than I thought, as I had the adapter in my home for a few days before when a relative came over.

And what's this of getting calls from EB for pickups!?! Oh gosh...
