Target Memo regarding Friday:


Jigglypuff will be just as bad in the US as Rosalina was. In Europe, Jigglypuff doesn't seem like she will be too bad, though. Not as bad as Rosalina anyway.

Also I was meant to cancel my ShopTo orders on Greninja and Jiggs yesterday, but apparently they are already packed and soon to be charged for. Sent them an e-mail before it was fully processed though. They told me it wouldn't dispatch and be charged for until Wednesday. Don't want to pay for imports when I now know those two will be at Smyths.

Eh… I tried Amiibo Hunting, but lo and behold, there are too many amiibos dedicated to the Mario characters (:4mario::4luigi::4peach::4yoshi::4bowser:). The only one I bothered getting from a store that I didn't have yet is :4zelda:, since I put off from getting her until now. Also, I think every other one of my amiibo (unless :4wario: becomes common in Wave 4) will be from online. So what I ordered in Amazon today were :4samus:, :4fox: and… :4marth:. Here's a picture of my Zelda amiibo. Now I have all of the common Smash amiibo in my hands.

Apparently Gamestop is doing the same in terms of no more orders after launch. Are retailers quitting the amiibo game, or did Nintendo not produce enough of each character?

In unrelated news, guess I gotta go camping for :4pacman: and Inkling Girl.

Personally I think this is good news. I just hope they also keep it to no duplicates as well given the Robin/Lucina situation. As far as I'm concerned, there's no good reason to buy multiples, at least on day one.

If it helps get Nintendo off their asses and put together an Amiibo Online Store I'd hope so. Nintendo would make more money, have a better idea of supply/demand, and consumers won't have to go through the stress of resellers/staying up late/waking up early/exclusives.

Lol, all dem Lucario and Dedede's. Lucky ass Kansas.

In another news, here's an update on the situation for all of those people (myself included) who ordered the second wave of :4shulk:'s from Gamestop back in February:

http://www.thetanooki.com/2015/05/2...arrive-in-june-more-wave-4-info-for-may-29th/
Hopefully they should be arriving in about a week or two for all of us. I kind of regret paying $7 extra for early shipping since I had to wait the full 3 months anyway, meh.

$12.99 plus shipping and tax, which makes up around $19, isn't really a big deal for me. I mean that's exactly how much I paid when I got Rosalina from Target. I just go for whatever delivery speed works well for me so long as I still get it.

Fair enough. Plus, it is Shulk, and given how rare he is, It's probably worth it (not to mention he's one of my favorite Nintendo chars. and my main). At least I'm not paying $40+ for him online on Ebay or something.

I haven't been reading previous comments so I'm sorry if I sound redundant, but how's everything outside of US? Which wave 4 amiibos are common and which ones are rare?

BTW, Wave 4 amiibos are coming to North Amercia in 5 DAYS! :D

Replace "YouTube" with "Nintendo" and "New Design" with "New Retailer Exclusive amiibo", then this will be accurate when (not if, when) they announce more of them.

And ... this is my collection! Yes it cost alot...
8 amiibos is good enough for me. I'm fortunate enough to have the rare ones like Rosalina in my collection. I wish I had a Little Mac amiibo though.

By the way, my Japanese Lucina amiibo has been shipped but I probably won't be getting it on my front door until aroud the start of June.

Oh no it's adorable.

All currently released Amiibo/Amiibo to release this week, are compatible, with the exceptions of:

-Toad
-Splatoon Amiibos
-Pokémon Characters

Also, Smash/Super Mario Yoshi Amiibos grant you the same Buddy Yoshi functionality as the Yarn Yoshi Amiibos, except...



IT'S PLASTIC YOSHI.

Yarn Yoshi buddies can save custom skins to them, though, so they have that extra benefit.

Does anyone here have experience with how Meijer stocks the new amiibo?

My Marth amiibo came earlier than expected! Here's a picture along with my Sheik and a random Kirito figurine.

Pretty much the whole set is rare. Wario and Charizard can be found in most countries, but they are limited. Everyone else is pretty much either you pre-ordered or you never get them unless you go to eBay. That's how I'm getting Pac-Man.

Diddy Kong isn't compatible either.

So, a question to those of you who have preordered amiibo from gamestop: Do web-in-store orders ship to your home address, or do they go to the store? I've got three on order right now, one of them being my Shulk, and I was wondering whether or not I'm going to get a call telling me to come and get them before they sell them. I'm kinda worried I might miss it if that's the case, and I'll never see the Shulk I waited so many months for...:ohwell:

Any help is much appreciated.:)

Kinda nervous about getting the Jigglypuff amiibo this Friday. I just really really hope I will be able to get it. Really don't want to pay more than $30 on amazon or ebay for it. But if I have to then I have to.

...Oh no...Do you think there's a chance I could get them on launch date? What if you're like, 2 hours late? Cuz I have exams :(

...3 DAYS...

A question regarding Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. What do you get for playing this "Pixel Toad hide-and-seek" game?

seriously , toad amiibo is the most fun of the amiibo functionality.

You can scan your toad on all the levels from the game and you must find a pixel toad.
Really like that becaues the game is fun but short and this add some replayability
