Ryu for $4 to get to $35 free shipping at Amazon was mine. But this Koopa Troopa will only be my 9th Amiibo. I haven't gone completely mental (yet). The only things I've actually used them for is extra puzzles in Picross 3D 2 (and only 2 have worked for that).

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Currently at 12 myself, though 6 of them are from AC that I either got for free or for almost nothing, and 2 others were part of a bundle. Honestly, I'll probably cancel Tiki and Goomba. Don't want to fall too deep. Told myself I'd only get the Samus Aran Amiibo, which I kinda did with the 2 pack. The Link Amiibos I picked up for BotW were a mistake.

In-store only? Bah
I'm just happy that it's finally coming out. Been waiting for this game forever!

Wait there's a physical copy?
Sadly not. Weird to have a physical preorder bonus but have the game digital-only. Like, come on, this game is supposed to emulate those old cartoons. Video cassettes weren't digital-only.

Amazon cancelled the two remaining games from my E3 2015 order. No email, no nothing. By happenstance I found it today while updating old orders. Got chat on the line and got them to give me a 85(!) dollar credit to make the reorders the same price.
Might be worth making sure yours are still good!

Is GameStop exclusive in the US, I'm assuming EB exclusive here, but nothing yet...

This way they get you to the store instead of just buying it digitally.
Not too sure why, but BB gave me $10 + tax off my Samus Returns order after I complained about not getting 20% off the MSRP. First I got an e-mailed receipt showing I would be refunded $8 + tax, and then today they e-mailed another receipt showing I would get an additional $2 + tax off. I'm not too sure why they adjusted the price twice, unless they were updating it for everyone anyway by the time I complained and my rep just did the math wrong in authorizing more.

Ooo, gonna drop by my local store tonight. Thanks for sharing this.
I only got Amiibo because either it was cheap, or the figure looked cool.
That's why I have so many Animal Crossing Amiibos lol. I have a Bayo one I didn't even open or even want that much :/ the Metroid one made me realize that it's way too expensive to even consider to start collecting

Any way to get a Steam code? I suppose this is Xbox / W10 Store only, but you never know...
Thank you for posting here. All set-up! So that's three-for-three, Sony, Microsoft and now Nintendo. Annoying at times, yes, but anyone who has a credit card, paypal or has digital games should set this up.

I'm going to go preorder later today. I'll report back if steam code is an option (doubtful though!)

thanks!...
Highly recommended. It saved me on the PSN. Never thought it'd happen but one morning my phone was getting bombarded with text messages from Sony because somebody was trying to get in for hours.
Yeah I want a steam code... I wonder if theyll give us a cup if we buy a steam code and use it to buy cuphead in front of them lol

Went to eb to preorder cuphead for the mug and it isn't even in their system lol

Same, apparently it was there yesterday but has since been removed.
That sucks. It was going to be my first digital code preorder. Now I'll just buy it from the Xbox store.
I wish Sony would scrap the SMS part and move to an app instead.

I was told you can go to any location, but call just in case.
Yup I just called and they said the same thing. Thanks for the reply!

Where did you look? I was out of the loop for Odyssey amiibos but I see Chrom available at BB right now. No Tiki tho

Any store. You have to buy something, can't put it back into a pre-order.
Was this a recent change to their policy? I returned Quantum Break and put it against a Dark Souls 3 preorder last year without issue.

Interesting! I stand corrected then. I didn't think they allowed that because they would have no way of knowing people who treat it like a short term rental, repeatedly. Always thought it was 1 time only final sale.

Going to pre order the Mario Switch bundle. Too good to pass up.

Can confirm you can use a Satisfaction Guarantee towards preorders. Just returned Metroid + Dishonored and put it towards Wolfenstein 2.
Whatever you buy is nonrefundable though, whether you preorder or buy something right away

Anyone want to try & save on shipping costs by doing a group buy if it's not limited to 1 per order?

How low do you guys predict the PSVR price will go during Black Friday? The full bundle (which is what I would need) is currently $580 after the recent price drop on Sept. 1. That's a nice drop from the insane $700 it cost at launch but still too much for me. I would probably need $500 to consider biting. Does that seem possible?
It's still looking light on must have games, but much better than launch last Fall. By the end of this year, this is the library of notable games waiting for new PSVR owners:
- Resident Evil 7
- Batman VR
- Moss
- Superhot
- Farpoint
- Thumper
- Skyrim VR
- Eagle Flight
- RIGS
- Job Simulator
Any important ones missing from that list?
