amiibo Official General Discussion

[oath2order]

My Japanese Wii Fit Trainer (didn't know she was Japanese, just bought from an Amazon store) and Toon Link came today <3

 

[Hyoshido]

Shulk was in-stock in GameStop for a total of 10 minutes. He's gone now.

Figures I was just one minute too late to snag one.

Oh wow, if you were on time and bought two, I would've bragged to my Dad to lemme make a Paypal and I'd totally buy that from you.

But ech, I'll try pre-ordering one soon in my GAME store.

Got my Toon Link in the mail today.

Gonna keep checking to see when preorders for Ness go up, and hopefully I'll be able to snag one.

Give us a hoot when you find out, I NEED the Ness amiibo so badly.

 

[Javocado]

I'll definitely let you guys know! I know Newegg is taking down emails to notify people when he goes up, but that's not a guarantee you'll be able to preorder it (obviously lol), and some people have had their preorders be canceled on the rare ones. I guess Newegg itself wasn't able to get them? Idk.

Ugh, I'm so bad at knowing when Nintendo puts out new amiibos and stuff and I want a Ness amiibo SO BADLY I don't want to miss it but knowing me, I probably will ):

I saw that on Amazon the villager is in stock a few days ago and its EXPENSIVE!!

I really need to buy those Amazon cards.

GameStop limits 1 per person, so I wouldn't have been able to get two. They're the first store taking measures against the scalpers. At least, that I know of.

It might be a store-by-store basis but the electronics manager at the Target I work at is limited 2 of any amiibo per household per day

 

[Dasbreenee]

Gamestops site has toon link and sheik right now. ^^

 

[n64king]

Yay me. She opened the package full of them in front of me haha Full, meaning they only had 18 total and it was for preorders only x_x

That's good on them. Sadly, I don't think it's a store-wide type of thing, since someone on Twitter posted a picture of someone buying like 8 Rosalinas at Target over a week ago. It would be nice if they start putting in a limit in all stores, though, especially on those exclusive ones.

Sadly almost every store does have policies on this.
Most workers just either don't know or don't care. At my gamestop we can't sell more than one amiibo per person. (Of the same one)
We on the other hand follow this because only 5 people work there. So we all know. Haha.

If you have a gamestop near you, and you go in often. Ask someone to hold one. Chances are if they get extras they'll do it. GameStop has a 24 hour hold policy on accesories. You'll just have to know when they get the shipment in haha.

 

[Hyoshido]

lmfao Javo willing to get sexual for Shulk.

betcha wish they had his swimsuit alt as his main outfit instead B(

My GameStop flat out told me that all of them were sold on pre-orders for the entirety of Wave 3, including Shulk. And I live in the middle of nowhere. It's probably just as bad in big cities.

Try, yes. But don't get your hopes up or they'll likely be crushed into a hundred sharp and flesh-biting pieces.

 

[n64king]

The employee flat out said the Shulk amiibo is for preorders only. I accidentally got there before the shipment arrived and the girl got like 4 calls on the phone asking about it and she had to turn people down. Lol y'all may be outta luck.

And I'm in a big city and people are aware this is a rare amiibo, especially if they preordered it. So good luck to those trying to pick it up off the shelf. At least Rosalina saw shelf life for a millisecond.
