    One thing I suspect, and this is purely intuition with nothing to back it up besides my gut instinct and how well you people react to the cut of my jib, is that we might be seeing an enhanced edition of SSB4 for the NX.

    It would be a good thing to have a new Smash Bros right out the gate for your new console, like with Twilight Princess. It wouldn't take as much work as building a new Smash Bros from the ground up, plus you could keep the same models for all of your amiibo figures so you don't have to put out a whole new wave of Smash figures that people have already bought (at least not immediately).

    Looks like all those amiibo that Chibi-robo supports might unlock costumes... saw this on reddit:

    Oh hey, Target actually shipped Ganondorf... Too bad I'll probably have to wait for some slow shipping or something - I doubt he'll be hereby Friday.

    I need to order Woolly World bundle, but I'm waiting on Best Buy (or at least Amazon).

      I know my Dr. Mario shipped out earlier in the week or late last week (I don't fully remember.)

      Unfortunately I wasn't timely enough to get any of the other amiibo being released tomorrow.

      I really wish there were a way Amazon would let us combine these into one big shipment.

      I think I'm probably gonna pass on online orders for now and be hopeful that some of these leak into stores. If Nintendo were smart they would have produced a bunch of the classic Mario amiibo, but knowing them...eh.

      I think I'll sit around the ol' laptop and try to snag Olimar tomorrow. And I'll be in the city the day after, so I'll check the TRU there for Bowser Jr.

      Otherwise I think I'm pretty much done with amiibo baring any cool new Star Fox/Zelda ones being announced.

      Or Waluigi, obviously.

      I really need to come up with some kind of storage solution before I buy any more of these things. I don't know where to put them anymore. It's kind of a bummer because that line of thinking leads to "If you don't know where to put them, you obviously don't need them, if you don't need them...oh god you've wasted how much money on these things?"

      Ganondorf looks real good. Might be the best-looking one?

      If you're in Canada, Amazon.ca seems to let you pre-order tomorrow's amiibos today.

      I just ordered classic Mario, Olimar, Zero Suit Samus and Ganondorf. Their pages say unavailable, but if you refresh a few times it changes to pre-order and lets you add them to your cart. I suppose there's always a chance they get canceled, but hopefully not.

        My Amazon order of Mario Maker didn't seem to be coming on time, so I just cancelled it and I'll go to Target tomorrow morning to grab the game

        And we'll see if I can get that 8-bit Mario while I'm at it

        I want the modern one more, but that one is seemingly impossible

        I'm debating if I should try to go to Walmart when it opens at 7:00 and make it to work by 7:30. I don't think I can pull it off.

        I'm using my 9:30 break to go to Toys R Us and get Bowser Jr and anything else I need. They open at 9:00 and I've heard good things about stock numbers so hopefully I'll be sucessful.

        Amiibo Day is always fun.

      • UncleSporkyUncleSporky Registered User regular
        I'm thinking it will be less of a problem than last time because there are fewer new amiibo this time, so fewer people who are there because they have to have a certain one.

        But then, maybe it will be more of a problem than last time because fewer amiibo means more people competing for them. But then, maybe stock will be better or scalpers will have started learning that rereleases are happening and the market doesn't pay like it used to...maybe.

        seeing reports that they got rid of the foil sticker on the bottom of the packaging and replaced it with a foil-y cardboard disc that sits between the figure base and the packaging.
        so now there's no way to partially open them, you'll have to completely remove the figure from the pack at least once to use it
