I saw the same thing a few months ago. Definitely an odd choice of words. Who knew the Wii Fit Trainer was an amiibo hoarder? :p
That's crazy. Was it at a Best Buy? It must be in their system like that, because I don't live anywhere near you assuming your location's accurate.

Yes, it was at a Best Buy. They had a bin full of amiibo with a of piece of paper that read "amiibo for Wii Fit Trainer". Thought it was the strangest choice of words. Most have been an internal oversight. :p

Who told you this and how would they know? Employees do not know what stock is coming a week ahead.
The employees at Toys R Us. Then again... They stated that Sonic and Dedede were also supposed to come today and didn't... Well either way, I will see next Friday what they have.

Sooooooo happy this long lost soul found it's way to my mailbox today. Still no word from Mac though.... Man if you guys are as deep in the amiibo game as I am ..camping out beyond 24hours is worth it for dat amii bro! Pitu needs to up his game like the rest of us. Lets all be vigilant and not **** up gettin wave 4.

I'm lucky I pre ordered everything I wanted and gamestop hasn't screwed me on wave 1 or wave 2 so I'm hopeful for Shulk, Ike, Megaman, and Sonic. But like Pitu said even pre orders aren't 100% safe.

I was able to pick up my Bowser, Toon Link, and Sheik yesterday. I was also able to get a Shulk when it came up a few days back in GameStop online. Still waiting on that one. Now all I need to do is find Meta Knight.

is there a thread dedicated to amiibo training in smash? I'm not really interested in the entire "collectible" aspect (though I understand it's importance) and the only substantial thread I found on this topic got shut down and linked to here. Either way I think they're different enough topics and it is especially frustrating because now collectors are not only getting all of the amiibos but 95% of discussion I'm finding online is about rarity and how collectible they are.

No disrepect to mods around here obviously but after doing some research I just thought I'd mention it. If this has been more than covered otherwise I apologize for my ignorance.

Got 5 amiibos on Friday. While I was in school, my mom and dad waited in line at Toys R Us before it opened and they got me these:

2 :4sonic: Sonics
2 :4megaman: Mega Men
1:4sheik: Sheik

I only got to play with Sonic for now (named Turbo), but I'm gonna play with Mega Man and Sheik soon and gonna sell the duplicates online. I know it's wrong to scalp and you guys hate scalpers, but I reaaaallllly want :4pit: and :rosalina: since I missed out on both of them, and it seems like the only way I'll get em is if I resort to it myself and take it from the hands of other scalpers. Please don't come after me with torches and pitchforks :teeth:

You can trade with numerous people online so it's perfectly ok. If your intention was to make a lot of my by intending to sell it at a ridiculously inflated price is scalping. So you're ok. I'm trying to do the same by getting extra Sonics and Ikes so I can trade to get Captain Falcon and others.

Target stores are going to stop carrying Samus, now. Samus will soon be completely bought out at NA retailers as the greedy go out and buy 4 or 5 at a time, trying to sell them on eBay. If you need Samus, get one now before the scalper wannabes get to them.

Preorders for wave 4 might happen this month. Some Gamestop stores are saying there will never be any wave 4 preorders... Not sure which rumors to believe.

^ I did hear that Nintendo said next wave of amiibos will be ebay exclusive. Not sure if they were referring to Mario Party or Smash Bros though.

AHHH no ****, that guy is in florida. I'm in that video. I remember seeing him.
The elder woman behind me is one who I agreed to help.

How bloody weird.

Just want to point out, he cannot be trying THAT hard. He got to his first TRU at 9.58, two minutes before they opened.
Whereas I was there, and missed out, then went back two hours later and shmoozed my way into Ike, Megaman, and Sonic. I'm not a an of 'get there first,' but I am a big fan of street skills.

That article had a giant 'satire' banner on the side.

I have all of the ones out for waves 1, 2, and 3 except Pit. (YES, EVEN SHULK, LUCARIO, AND ROSALINA). Meta Knight is pre-ordered. I'm waiting to preorder wave four. God, I hope none of the ones for wave four are retailer exclusive. My poor wallet.

I don' want to be to much of a downer, but Preordering is by no means a guarantee.

I'm gonna wait to get Bowser from the Mario line. I was gonna wait for Yoshi from that line but I caved and got the Smash Yoshi. I'll probably also get Mario and Toad from the Mario line as well at least, and maaaaybe Peach and Luigi but eh.

As of now the Smash line is better then the Mario line no matter how much of the Mario line they make.

Well that's all subjective. I like the red stands more than the black ones, and I like the poses and styles of the Mario characters from the Mario line more than the Smash line.

So my birthday is tomorrow, and I know that I'm getting :4myfriends::4sheik::4wiifit::4luigi:.
On the 20th, I'll be going to Smyths before opening hours to get :4shulk::4metaknight::4dedede:. Back up if I can't get those? :4shulk::4sonic::4megaman:. I will not be leaving without Shulk goddamn. Shulk is priority.

I have no worries about :4bowser:and:4tlink:, as they are only £10.00 on Amazon UK. The only ones I'm worried about are the 5 mentioned above. And :rosalina:. And :4littlemac:. And :4lucario:.
