Twilight Princess HD rumored to contain an amiibo exclusive dungeon.
Quote:
Box for the Shovel Knight amiibo allows the ability to scan without taking the figurine out since Yacht Club wanted to please collectors and in a way help ensure more of the figurine would be available in stores. Quote:

I mean... that's cool and all, but like... the New 3DS has an NFC reader built into it. I can see hilarity ensuing if Nintendo fully goes that route.

Just the green one. It was like £3 more for the game with the amiibo vs without. I can't see me getting into it any further, maybe a fourth one day so I can have a full Smash team.

Ryu's amiibo appears to be getting released earlier than originally announced.

Some details on what the Zelda series amiibo's will do for the upcoming Twilight Princess HD remake. Ganondorf amiibo basically acts as a new hard mode for the game. Quote:

Gotta find out when that's available in Canada.
Meanwhile, the Wave 2 of Animal Crossing guys are up for pre-order. Even though I don't care about most of them, I needs me a Mr. Resetti (and will get all of them regardless because SIGH) |

Nintendo announced a few Pokemon amiibo figurines will be getting a re-release as part of the upcoming 20th Anniversary for Pokemon.
Was part of the larger announcement for the next wave and dates for amiibos. Quote:

Cool... still missing Jigglypuff
I'm surprised Nintendo hasn't started a full line of Pokemon amiibo. That would literally finance them for the next 2 decades alone. It's gotta be in their pipeline |

I'd imagine they'd make Pokemon amiibo cards, like with the Animal Crossing ones. Making 700+ figurines seems a bit much.

Think that would be Game Freaks decision since they are really picky and stubborn with how the Pokemon franchise gets used. They have enough clout with Nintendo to get away with it even if Nintendo wanted to do something else.

My Lucas amiibo came in the mail today. I really like it. The pose and the quality and size and everything just look good. One of my fav ones I think.

Mega Yarn Yoshi getting lots of restocks. I believe March 20th in the US, but March 11th here in Canada. Seems to be decent stock all around:
http://imgur.com/a/gVSxq Still $60, hoping this dissuades the scalpers a bit. Really don't want to spend the money on it but IT'S A HUGE (relatively speaking) FRIGGIN' YOSHI so yeah. -edit- March 18 in Canada, not 11 Last edited by road doggy dogg; 03-09-2016 at 11:40 AM. |

Not sure about AMERICALAND but tomorrow here in Canada #bigday for amiibo tomorrow...
Roy, Ryu and Famico R.O.B. released tomorrow, as well as Pokken Tournament and the Shadow Mewtwo card. Animal Crossing S3 cards and some physical amiibo as well. Toys R Us restocking MYY too. Crap... going to hurt my wallet. Preordered Roy Ryu and ROB, and Pokken already... still need that MYY so I will probably bite the bullet on him... |

Might get Pokken and throw it on the pile of shit I'm not playing due to Stardew Valley. Debating about the weird controller thingy too.
Then the only Amiibo I want is Cloud. |

I'm not a fan of fighting games at all but I'm a total Pokemon mark (and I needed to pre-order SOMETHING Pokemon-related to get a poster on Pokemon Day at EB )

Yeah I got my call yesterday to pick mine up. Might run to EB on lunch and grab it, debating making a quick run to the local TRU to see if they have any MYY in-store as well

I think I'm definitely shying away from my "GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL" mentality and I'm perfectly okay missing out on this if they keep making it unreasonable to get with any semblance of sanity. The small ones are pretty rad, agreed

Don't hate Nintendo. Hate your competition for these things. Everyone wanking into a frenzy like they're beanie babies. Take a look at the man in the mirror.

naw, Nintendo of America has handled stock levels pretty bad all around. there's plenty of stock of a lot of the rarer ones in most European countries and even Japan (where Nintendo anything is exponentially more popular than in the US)

It seems easier here since Amazon and other suppliers can be more centralised. Yanks always seem a bit funny about ordering stuff from Amazon. It's also possible we have less scalpers here, but I dunno. As I said there were a shitload of Nesses in that shop I went to, maybe its luck.
