It doesn't need to be confirmed. They're the same amiibo in different colors. They would've said so if they did different things.

Isn't Jiggly equally exclusive in the US though?
In other news, amazon finally added pictures for the two pokemons, impressive.
I thought he was talking about the SSB and mario party yoshi's vs. the yarn one.
The different colors of the yarn yoshi are the same.

noooo 
I missed the .de Yoshis cus my internet was down this afternoon. Fuck.
I missed the .de Yoshis cus my internet was down this afternoon. Fuck.Man, the Splatoon LE is 45€ in other German shops and amazon.de asks 60€. Shipping is also more expensive. Hopefully the price will go down, if not, I still have a pre-order at amazon.fr as backup.
Edit: Just got word from our local retailer that they'll get the LE for around 40€. Weirdly their site lists a May 22nd release date, a week earlier than expected.

The original question was whether the "other two Yoshis do the same as the green one" which are not the SMB and Smash Yoshis since they are both also green.
Greninja, Ness and Jigglypuff are exclusives in USA

surprised the nintendo store and amazon uk are taking so long
Since that nintendo direct i've had both amazon and GAME openin separate tabs for yoshi and splatoon bundles.
I got the splatoon one now i'm just waiting for yoshi. The wait is going to kill me. lol

Not actually that important
Well I'll be darned if that ain't the best news to start my day with, thanks!
IBS threw me a curveball since it wasn't that way afaik with the last wave and you can already fully preorder stuff like Devil's Third or Zelda U while the upcoming amiibos are a no-go.
I've also sent you a pm, who knows maybe you might be interested in joining forces for the greater good of amiibo hunting all over The Boot ^_^
I just put in an order for the Splatoon bundle + 2 Inkling Amiibo with GAME as well, but now I'm wondering if there's still a chance they might not get enough despite their strict one per customer rules etc. I've never tried ordering Amiibo through GAME before actually. What do you think, are we set?
Edit: I do wish I could preorder the Dr. Mario Amiibo as well while I'm at it, but they don't allow for that yet, just like Amazon.uk...

I believe that they might not have gotten their stock allocation.They know they will eventually and so have it all pre pared, but they will only start offering pre orders when they get their allocation.
Garrett Hawke

I asked them on twitter and they said they had no news regarding when they'll be available for pre-order :/
They're available to order in store now but apparently will be available online at some point.
I ordered in store just to get it done so I can forget about it for now.

I didn't ask for the game bundle but all 3 individual coloured Yoshi's were available, £5 deposit each.
I asked for the triple pack but they couldn't find that, they found the 3 individuals easily though.
They didn't have the usual prints for preorders when I was in store, they manually searched the system for me, if the preorder prints have arrived now they might all be on there.

Yup, was just about to post about this. All 3 Yoshi Amiibos are available to place deposits on, the codes aren't in the folders yet so if the staff tell you that they aren't available tell them to search for Yoshi under the Pre-Order Deposits section. The triple pack SKU can still be found searching for Wooly, but it isn't a deposit code yet so it won't be functional.
Garrett Hawke

Tried to pre order them at my local GAME (in Scotland) and they said they couldn't because they didn't have the pre order codes yet. Sigh
God i hope so, if not i'll have to pre-order the splatoon amiibos from somewhere.
I'd rather wiat for them to come to uk amazon, but thanks for the heads up.
It really is. and i'm not sure about them being a in-store exclusive thing. sorry.
Don't forget that GAME had all of the new Amiibo listed with no option to pre-order at first. They only added the option to the ones which they knew their allocation for. I'm sure the Yoshi's and final Smash wave will be available to pre-order soon. They'll go up on ShopTo at the same time, I'd imagine.
Azure Phoenix

They do have the codes, that staff member is either being incredibly lazy or lacking any kind of initiative. Tell them to search for Yoshi under the Pre-Order Deposits section via the Query option on the till.

Oh so now they wanna compete with Media Markt ... hmm^^
Garrett Hawke

I did ask but they didn't want to budge on it so I just left. I'll try again today with a different staff member.
That sucks
Luckily the guy I dealt with is always super helpful, there are one or two in my store that probably wouldn't have looked outside the folder though.

And sold out lol
Saw the Mediamarkt offer while checking if they match the mediamax offer for GTA V though.

Trying my GAME store again. Wish me luck~
Edit: and it worked. They wouldn't believe me that it would be in the system but I pleased with them to check and it showed up.

They should adjust the price also for the old pre-orders, right?

Good to hear, sorry you had an uphill struggle with your local staff though. The deposit folder listings aren't even close to complete, or up to date, they really should have searched for you.

You missed multiple signs already. If you have to come in and ask, you're not dedicated enough to the hunt.
Garrett Hawke
Member
It's okay
just glad I have them. And yeah, they should be more willing to search if asked. I'd understand if it was super busy but it was quiet the first time and about the same the second (and successful) time.Thank you for all the help

I'm trying I'm trying! Damn life getting in the way lol.
I have the Game page pinned to my phones start screen and checking when I can. I hope I don't miss it!
Order them instore so you know you won't miss em!
yes, if you ordered exactly that SKU. it's amazon's pre-order price guarantee.

So the product pages for some of the new amiibo are up on amazon.es. Does anybody know if they were already in stock/sold out?
TheMoon
Member
Which ones? Can't find any via search (even using the Spanish names). Neither do the ASINs from the Splatoon/Yoshi ones work (taken from amazon.de)
no, I have been checking everyday.
Spain is shit for preorders, I don;t know why they don't come up when you search. You have to sort by release date.

Looks like the global thread is also.

Ironically, amazon.es is where I got my entire Wave 1+2 from, delivered on release day (I think?) and for a great price, too. But after that it has been a wasteland.
