Jave Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Yes, it's been confirmed numerous times that the compatibility of an amiibo is defned by the character and not the series it represents. The Smash Bros Mario amiibo and the Mario Party Mario amiibo are both compatible with the exact same games. Rosalina will be the same.

Anacybele Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Where was this all said at? Also, according to that Wiki page, every Amiibo so far is compatible with Hyrule Warriors, which I don't think is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Where was this all said at? Also, according to that Wiki page, every Amiibo so far is compatible with Hyrule Warriors, which I don't think is the case. They said it in the direct but it would overide your data from the previous game like your leveled up CPU in smash. Also while the Link one gives you the spinner the other amiibos get you random rewards for the game. Nothing big but things like treasures and rupees.

Anacybele Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Oh. So that's why there's a "get 100 Amiibo presents" achievement in the game... Nintendo must be planning to make at least 100 different Amiibos. o.O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I don't even own the game, but even just reading that achievement gives me the impression that you can get gifted by the same amiibo more than once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuffPuff Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Which is why that I'm only getting the Mario Party 10 Luigi and the Smash Bros Peach. Edited February 9, 2015 by PuffPuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirie Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 It's good to know that we'll likely be getting MP10 Rosalina at some point. I'd rather not support scalpers and buy one on Ebay or whatever so that's fine by me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Just got a text from GameStop. My Toon Link is going to be available tomorrow. But nothing about Ike. I knew he was canceled... *snff* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeDusk Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Something in the back of my mind is telling me that Gamestop isn't getting Ike until the 20th of this month (I recall reading something among those lines in a NeoGAF thread, anyway). The release dates for the wave 3 Amiibos have been all over the place in America. They'll notify you if your Ike was cancelled. Or they should, anyway. If you're really worried, you should ring them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 The 20th now? Ugh... Last I checked, the 13th was the estimate. But I can look again... ...Yeah, estimated availability is still the 13th according to GameStop's website. Toon Link's is as well, so I figured both would probably arrive at the same time. But I guess not. I'm still worried though, so I'll ask about Ike when I pick up Toon Link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeDusk Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I haven't checked that thread in a while, so me being wrong isn't actually surprising. Asking about Ike really is your best bet right now Just checked that thread now; a lot of the users are saying they've also had text notifications for Shulk and Sheik from Gamestop. No one's mentioned Ike. I don't think Gamestop have him yet Edited February 10, 2015 by DodgeDusk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Huh, I see. Well then, guess I'm just going to have to wait a bit longer... Though I still want him so bad. :( I also hope the Ike I get doesn't have a bent Ragnell or anything. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I went to GameStop over the weekend when I was hanging out with my friends. Granted, I only asked about Shulk (and Sheik, because one of my friends wanted her) but it appears that the stores are getting shipments every 3-4 days or so. In other words, they're not getting them all at once, but like … small shipments of each and then they get sent more whenever their suppliers get around to it? At least, if I recall correctly. Since Shulk and Sheik were said to be coming in on either this Friday or Saturday, I can only assume Ike is coming like 3-4 days after them. The employees of both GameStops I've been to were very frustrated with this whole fiasco as well, it's so totally not their fault and I'm sure that there are some people who are taking out their frustration on them. But yeah, it's definitely a good idea to ask them for more details if you have a question on an amiibo, because it's probably just a good idea to keep up with whatever the store you ordered from is doing, not a bunch of GameStops that aren't relevant to you.

DodgeDusk Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I also hope the Ike I get doesn't have a bent Ragnell or anything. :P You can reheat plastic (which Ragnell is made out of), shape it to your liking, and then cool it down to straighten it out, if anything looks odd to you (this applies to any figurine made out of plastic). Best way to do it in a household is to have two bodies of water; one boiling, and one ice cold. You could also use this technique on Ike's right arm to pivot his forearm upwards, if you want Ragnell directly perpendicular to the base. Mind you, I've never done this before, so you'd better off looking at a (semi) professional guide to help you. It does work, however Edited February 10, 2015 by DodgeDusk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Pro tip Ana: Don't assume your Ike order is cancelled until you are specifically told it has been cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Yeah, I know plastic melts under heat and all, but I'm afraid of dungoofing and ruining it if I try that.

Yeah, I bet other retailers have been frustrated too, like perhaps Target with all their Rosalinas getting sold out. I'm not blaming any of them though, and it's a shame that some people ARE taking out their frustration on those poor employees. Granted, I did get a little bit edgy with the Target guy I talked to, but I didn't like YELL at him or anything. I just said "what? That's just ridiculous!" in as little anger as I could. I wanted Rosalina even more than I wanted my Links (and I wanted Link for the Spinner in Hyrule Warriors. The Spinner is my favorite Zelda item/weapon) too... EDIT: Red Fox: Alright, I guess that's all I can do at this point if I still haven't received any email notifications about that.

Sunwoo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I don't know if the employees at my mall's GameStop recognize me (I've gone there a lot of times even before the whole amiibo thing, so I wouldn't be surprised), but I generally try to be as polite as possible and try to "make light" of the amiibo frustrations by saying stuff like, "people are going crazy over these things, it's kind of silly!" or "I've seen so much misinformation on the forums, I think it's better to just ask directly". Maybe laugh with them and make a light joke, and lately I've been asking about some other stuff I am interested in like if they have any used copies of older EO games and whatnot. I find they'll generally be more willing to help people out if you're polite with them. For example, one employee offered to print out a schedule of 3DS games being released in 2015, and another guy gave me their card and said to call every day just to make sure I knew when the Shulk amiibo was coming out (before I told him that I already placed a preorder down).

Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Yeah, you'd definitely have better luck getting help if you're polite. And if you're the employee, you'll get a better rep if you're polite to the customer. So I definitely get that. I mean, this one time I was at Hot Topic, I saw a Rainbow Dash swimsuit that I totally loved, but I had fairly recently gotten a new swimsuit. But then a guy there managed to convince me to get it anyway by showing me how I could get it in my size despite that they didn't actually have my size in the store at the time. He was SO helpful and I was nice about mentioning my still kind of new swimsuit. :P He was like "but you don't have a RAINBOW DASH swimsuit" in a smiley smug manner. lol Edited February 10, 2015 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandSteve Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Well, I got a text about Shulk, meaning that I know my Shulk wasn't cancelled. However, "Wednesday PM" is a pretty vague range for when he'll be in. Could be any time from Noon to when the store closes (which I believe is 9), even though 4-6 is probably the most likely range. I don't know if they got enough to cover everyone's preorders, so going there early to be on the safe side is probably a good idea. If it's not there, I can run some errands in the area and check back in every now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I just got a text message that my preorder for Shulk is available on Wednesday in the PM as well. Which is funny, as they called me when my preorder for SSB4 was ready to pick up, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Yeah, they called when Hyrule Warriors and SSB were ready for me too. lol That IS kinda funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
