Bullwine85 Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Turns out, My local Target had plenty of Dr. Mario in stock in the afternoon, and my local Toys R Us had rows upon rows of Bowser Jr, plus they even had a spare Zero Suit Samus. I also ordered Ganondorf from GameStop.com, and hopefully can snag an 8 bit Classic Mario soon. Here's my updated collection! (Ganondorf will join them soon enough, with the Retrio later this month) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastor15243 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) Ugh. I was recently reminded about the Roy amiibo, which will apparently have fates functionality. And once again I am tempted to buy an amiibo. I figure I might as well since I already bought the other four FE amiibos. Any idea when it's coming out?

Irony Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Ugh. I was recently reminded about the Roy amiibo, which will apparently have fates functionality. And once again I am tempted to buy an amiibo. I figure I might as well since I already bought the other four FE amiibos. Any idea when it's coming out? On the Amiibo wiki it said 2016- so it won't be out for a little while... Again like you, I am seriously getting tempted to buy more amiibo (I own a Shulk amiibo, but I got really lucky with that...) but I need the money for uni... Decisions, Decisions... If I decide to get more amiibo, it's probably going to be the ones that have Fates functionality (Ike, Robin and Lucina in particular, though I might get Marth and Roy) along with Rosalina, Olimar, Pit, Dark Pit and Palutena. After that, no more Amiibo collecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alastor15243 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 You know what I've felt for a while Nintendo should do with amiibo? Make a game that lets you use them to play a tabletop rpg. Like, some kind of dungeons and dragons parody where you use the amiibo as your characters. Like, literally the amiibo, they're portrayed in game not as actual characters but as the amiibo themselves being used as character markers on a game board. It would be absurdly easy to support every single amiibo ever made no matter how big the collection gets because you'd just have to make a single 3d model and some stats. It would be awesome!

Five5 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Sounds like one of the perfect ways to have a game that supports all amiibo. someone send that idea to development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastor15243 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Sounds like one of the perfect ways to have a game that supports all amiibo. someone send that idea to development. I'm actually considering making a video about it. My friend's suggesting I go all out and work out stats and stuff beforehand, but I'm not sure that'll be necessary because on the rare chance that Nintendo goes for it they'd obviously change a ton of what I put forward.

Knight Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I remember hearing a suggestion for a D&D-like game for the Wii U where the gamepad holder was the dungeon master and the controller of the adventure. This, combined with the amiibo, and it sounds like you could be onto something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alastor15243 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Didn't they do that in Mario Party 10? Sort of, they don't allow every amiibo and it's for a party game rather than a turn based rpg stylized like dungeons and dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) I got a Mii Swordfighter for just $19 with Prime shipping on Amazon! :D There doesn't seem to be many Mii Amiibo available there right now too, so hurry hurry hurry anyone that wants the individuals and not deal with the NA 3-pack BS!

Elieson Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Good news, amiibros and amiibras!Toys R' Us has become Restock Central! Not sure how online availability will work yet, but hey, it's something! if you don't wanna open the spoiler, 80,000 Villager incoming 26,672 Fox, Captain Falcon, Lucario and Little Mac incoming these screenshots follow the trend that they should appear within either online dist. centers or actual stores within 2-3 weeks (possibly sooner, if these have been lingering in the system and just not noticed until today). Basically, when DC Qty = those numbers, it takes a week-ish to get them out to TrU retailers. 1-2 weeks to get to DC, then 1 week-ish to get from DC to Store. I WILL HAVE MY NA BOXED VILLAGER YET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) Guys, yarn Yoshi Amiibo went up for preorder at Walmart's website earlier today!

Elieson Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 9/25 is their release day. Will be available at GS for midnight pickup (along with NBA 2k16) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be available at GS for midnight pickup (along with NBA 2k16) I'd also get NBA 2K16....but FIFA 16 releases the same week, I picked up NHL 16 a few days ago, and combined with amiibo my wallet would hurt. I'll likely just rent NBA 2k16 to start lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaMonkey Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I've finally gotten my hands on a Lucina amiibo. Now all I need is the Squid amiibo and I can live happily ever after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 WHAT YOU GOT ONE? >envyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Yeah, they were up for at least 17 minutes. :P I know, because the Facebook post in my NC Amiibo group that said they were up was made 17 minutes before I saw it. All three yarn Yoshis were still available at that time. Although, the first person that said they missed them posted three hours ago. And the original post was made six hours ago. But yep, I got one! :D I still haven't gotten my Dr. Mario or 30th Anniversary classic Mario though. But that's because I messed up ordering and didn't know that our forwarding address didn't cover UPS deliveries. >_> So they tried to deliver them to my house instead of the apartment and they were undeliverable... Sigh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemma Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 GS has a midnight release for Retrio? Weird. Anyways, you think'll they have the Animal Crossing Cards available at midnight as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
