PSA: The new series 5 amiibo cards pre-order have started!!!

[Fey]

Is this for one pack of three cards or three packs? Not sure on the translation I’m getting, but it’s either a fair deal or a bad one based on exchange rates

Huh, that’s actually I really good question. I’m a native speaker and it isn’t clear to me either—I assumed it was one pack with three cards, but with that phrasing it could just as easily mean three packs total. For the price the second option does seem more plausible…weird

it looks like its one pack of 3 cards since it is coming from the nintendo store. Stuck is Norwegian for pieces, at least from what i found on google translate

For the folks from Germany: Both Media Markt and Saturn now have the cards listed at their online stores for pre-order! One pack costs 4,99€. Looks like it's limit for one pack per person (which sucks tbh).

It's for one pack. One of the shops in my country use the same title and if you go to the product description, it says "One pack amiibo cards with three random cards from Animal Crossing".

I'm surprised more US pre-orders didn't start today... hopefully Amazon and Target will start pre-orders sometime this week.

Yea I’m surprised Target doesn’t have pre-orders since they had the other series packs.

I'm hesitating to pre-order. Do I really need those ?

No. You don't. They only matter to those who like collecting things.

 

[Villager Fan]

I opted to get some homemade ones from Etsy on pre-order. I feel like that’s more of a guaranteed bet then waiting for pre-orders that I might miss. I don’t care about NPCs to be honest, so I just got all of the standard villager cards.

Haha same but I'm going to wait. Getting the
villagers with instant gratification doesn't sound as fulfilling to me so I'll save my money for now. I'll be happier seeing them on the islands.

While I don't think the files will be that hard to get hold of in order to make the amiibos, I do think its irresponsible for people to be selling home made amiibos when the files have not even been released yet so they can't actually be sure of if and when they can make them

 

[saltypotato]

I'm just here screaming internally, waiting for the UK to get a drop. I'm getting to the point that i dont mind too much if I miss a round a pre orders, I just want to know that they are indeed happening here xD

 

[Milleram]

I feel your woes. I think I may just go there on my own time or just wait until they're on Amazon, lol.

I didn't pre-order them from Best Buy for the same reason, and now they're gone. Hopefully I can find them somewhere else.

I never use to care about amiibo until I got a few of the Series 1-4 packs that were in Target about a month ago. Then I got hooked and now want the entire collection, lol! Just a new facet of my ACNH obsession.

 

[CanuckChick]

Sorry I haven't been around cuz the family medical emergency from last week looks to be an ongoing one but I'm so happy seeing everyone sharing the tips & links cuz I certainly did not get many of those from my own alerts!

And I missed out on the canadian bestbuy bumping it to 3 packs dang it. I hope we can all buy them in person on Nov. 5th cuz I need more than just 1 pack!

@LumiMoonPlays This is what happened to me. There was a topic on the other ac forum I'm active on, back in NL in which someone asked if it was worth it to buy amiibo cards/figurines. I told them heck nah, just save your money since there were a few ppl there offering the villagers for free anyway.

Boy was I wrong ha! When I got the Sanrio and some of the knock-off amazon ones I was hooked and then bought 7 packs of the series 1-4 official ones when they were re-released...and now I want MORE!!!

God help my wallet lol.

 

[FaerieRose]

I only have the Sanrio cards, but I want cards of all the special characters so I can design their vacation homes and invite them for coffee. Unfortunately, I can’t find cards from any of the series in stock anywhere. Any recommendations on where to find them? (Authentic cards only)

Basically me. Managed to get some picks last January, and now I check every day to see if more packs are being available.

Had a field day when the restocked during this summer.

I've wanted the 1-4 series packs but I've never seen them available for the 5.99 so I'm hoping one day I can see them restock again </3

 

[CelestialRaine]

For the past few days, I have been checking the Target shops near me and none of them had Series 1-4 in stock, only the Sanrio ones, which unfortunately I have already. I'm reeeeally hoping that there will be some Season 5 along with 1-4 available on the 5th and so on, though honestly I don't feel so hopeful. Perhaps I was too late on getting the Series 1-4 cards when they restocked?

 

[N a t]

Walmart just had a small restock! Ordered 2 packs for 14 bucks shipped! I'm in the U.S.

So excited one for me and my partner! Good luck to everyone!

 

[VanitasFan26]

I haven't seen any on Amazon yet.

Edit: Never mind. I managed to find the Series 5 of amiibo cards for only $29.99 and I just bought it and it should come to be around November 24h, 2021
