I don't want any of those.

Me either. As I've posted before, Zero Suit Samus and Ganondorf are the only remaining Smash characters I want. And I can't think of any other Nintendo characters I'd want that I don't already have aside from those.

People really think Nintendo is going to announce Wave 5 when we don't even have a release date for Wave 4? I wouldn't get my hopes up.

 

[SalvaPot]

This morning I had a panic attack since my internet was down. I have been checking my options all day, lol, I don´t want to miss the preorders.

Yeh I think they'll show who the next wave will include. They've been pretty good at announcing the next wave at each direct for the past wee while now. Remember it's only NA that are suffering this weird lack of release date thing.

 

[Windom Earle]

Man, I need a Shyguy amiibo. Also that pink dino from SMB2 please.

 

[RootCause]

Gold came to Peru! We finally got the Gold Mario amiibo and man was I surprised to see plenty of them in a single store. They were all pre-orders and according to the cashier they will receive more which are going to be for sale like any other amiibo.

If you don't know Birdo's name, you don't deserve a Brido Amiibo ;-)

I want a Brido Amiibo too =).

Decided to look for Ness on Amazon and found out that someone was selling a version of Mother 3 with English translation, probably a bootleg. Is that legal?

 

[iShouldGoPro]

Is the hype train boarding atm?

 

[Byron Bluth]

It went up within an hour too.

I believe it ended at 12:00pm EST and the pre-orders became available right after it ended.

7pm EST is when this one is supposed to end, seems kinda late in the day. My bet is when places open tomorrow morning.

Choooo Choooo!

You are corgially invited to GET HYPED and post a lot so we can get to Best OT.

Of course not*, but that's a relatively common "fan-translated cart". There's a couple others on sale online.

* if that's the cart I've seen before, I think I remember reading that they even "stole" the translation patch itself...

Trains already left the station. Pls Understand

Just spoke to a Nintendo Rep and they said the New 3DS has been such a success that they will be announcing the Newer New 3DS XL Xenoblade Edition today at Gamestop. Only 3 per store. Doesn't come with stylus anymore either. Only $9.99 sold separately.

I'm excited for Wave 5 announcement with the release date of 2016! (Could be ANY day in 2016)

Edit: wow I'm still top 10 poster here. Ok time to overthrow Horizon

 

[Fox Mulder]

I don't want any of those.

this is going to be interesting how they finish. They've gotta know that despite the demand for amiibo so far, the characters left aren't that popular really. Wonder how limited their supply will be.


bowser jr
dark pit
dr. mario
duck hunt
falco
ganondorf
greninja
jigglypuff
mr. game & watch
olimar
Palutena
R.O.B.
Zero Suit Samus
Mewtwo?

Horizon's really taking that top spot. Poor Gem fell hard after LINE. He barely posts here anymore!

I'll always be here for you guys! *flex*

As if most of the GAF crowd had WFT on their list, and we all saw how that turned out.

I'm actually more excited for this list than the first 29. Olimarrr..

 

[SalvaPot]

Honestly, I am not expecting Wave 5 revealed on the Nintendo Direct, what I do Expect is SMB Amiibo Wave 2 with Rosalina, Wario and Donkey Kong... and hopefully Daisy, Waluigi, Toadette and Spike.

people are going to want the remaining roster, but some of these will get little mac'd.

 

[Diggeh]

The final Smash wave will be heavily scalped regardless of character because people pay heavy premiums to complete collections.

Why not both? Didn't they unveil the first SMB line with Wave 4 on a Direct? It seems unlikely that they would leave Wave 5 ambiguous with Wave 4's release so very close. Hasn't every wave been announced before the previous wave hit shelves?

 

[RootCause]

Just had a terrible thought. What if they released the rest of the amiibos as cards to avoid shortages.

 

[Koppai]

Nah, I don't think they are gonna do that. But if they do any reprints of older ones they might do it that way.

 

[//ARCANUM]

Just to be clear, is this the site the direct will be airing on? http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/04-01-2015/

and it starts in about 1 hour right?

 

[Shauni]

There's literally no reason to expect this.

Yes

Silly thought. Won't happen.

 

[properpropaganda]

So there is an Amiibo tournament at wondercon this weekend. What I'd the best and quickest way to level up an Amiibo to fight like a boss?

 

[HardRojo]

BTW, among the Gold Marios that came to Peru were some Fox amiibo and I managed to score one

Will this work in Safai on an iPad?

 

[MADGAME]

Been disengaged from GAF for awhile, not sure my chances here but looking for a Meta Knight. Would trade an Ike, DDD, Gold Mario, Rosie, Lucario, or Falcon.

PM if interested.

This is the worst control station for amiibo preorders I've ever used hahaha

I won't even be able to hear the direct.

 

[Meeps]

Good luck, everyone! (if it happens...)

 

[Comet]

[friskykillface]

[Diggeh]

Final prediction: Amiibo will be canceled and replaced with NX poker chips with stylish character faces on both side. Sturdy material that can encase the NFC chip perfectly.

 

[Maggots]
