Is the samus amiibo slated to still be in production or should I buy it now if I want it? In total according to amazon I will be paying 31 dollars.

[QUOTE=GreenLynx;47065218]If you have them in your area, check stores like Walmart and target, it's fairly common it seems.[/QUOTE] Fair enough. Though Target stores here closed due to having no inventory on anything :v:
Samus is not being restocked in some areas, but yet it is in others. It's so inconsistent that it varies from state to state in the US.
SO does anyone know when pre-orders go up for the 4th wave? I'm hesitant to pre-order offline from places like amazon since its online, and I'd much rather pre-order from GameStop which has been very reliable for me for waves 2 and 3.
No one knows. Only ones that went up are the Mario series ones (at amazon only), I mean fuck we haven't even gotten the offer for the Mario Party 10 bundle at gamestop because we don't have anything.
EB Games put them up for pre-order right after the Direct, so I already have a secured Ness, Robin and Lucina. Fucking GameStop.
I'm US and I secured Ness from GAME because [i]I will not mi[b]ss my litTLE BUDDY[/B][/i]
I'm happy with just having Samus for now. At this point I think the only other I want, and will preorder, is Duck Hunt. But if the store I work at gets another shipment with Bowser I may pick one up.

The Super Mario series amiibos are now available for pre-order in Canada.
[QUOTE=Merro;47068544]The Super Mario series amiibos are now available for pre-order in Canada.[/QUOTE] Aaand... Luigi's preordered. Thanks Merro! Now to wait for a Daisy one and hopfully, a Zelda series one (this one is a mystery on how they will handle it. Mix the incarnations or go for the Toons and Zelda U...)
I know it's not likely to happen, but a Starfox series to coincide with the WiiU game would be nice.
Stay hopeful, man. It's coming later in the year. They could implement a support for amiibos in it. Plus, 2 of the cast are in Smash. It could happen. The series I'm scared about not getting any are F-Zero and Metroid.

Captain Falcon's amiibo could unlock Insane difficulty in F-Zero UX, and Fox/Falco could open challenge missions in Starfox Squadron.

They would be things you can unlock through other means without them, but are obtainable immediately through use of the amiibo. Think of it like Luigi Bros in SM3DW. [editline]3rd February 2015[/editline] IE, unlock Insane mode by beating all cups in UX on the highest standard difficulty, unlock challenge missions in Squadron by completing optional story objectives... Or just use the amiibo. Nobody's missing out on content, some are just able to get it earlier as a perk of having the figure.
Something I noticed. They aren't selling the SMB Mario amiibo alone. Maybe it will be available after the bundle...
The Mario Party 10 Mario Amiibo looks so nice, really reminds me of Mickey Mouse .

So it is not to far from being a possibility of other games. I don't know how people really felt about it though.
Got myself a cock-standless Loogy.

People who don't play HW get mad because IT IS A REQUIRED PART OF THE GAME THEY ARE SELLING TO YOU INSTEAD OF GIVING IT TO ME FOR FREE.

Ended up buying a Shiek from Japan, they're far more fairly priced than the scalpers :v:
I need to find a way to be notified the exact moment Ness goes up for pre-order in America. His pre-order went up on Amazon in the UK 4 hours ago and he is already maxed out on pre-orders. I missed Rosalina and Luma. I won't miss Ness.
