Wii Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Nah, they are still there on the mobile version of the site. They have yet to be put up on the desktop version. They must be working their way through the system now. The links I followed on the site brought me to somewhere different. http://www.game.co.uk/en/olimar-amiibo-super-smash-bros-collection-557564?catGroupId= http://www.game.co.uk/en/dr-mario-amiibo-super-smash-bros-collection-557566?catGroupId= http://www.game.co.uk/en/bowser-jr-amiibo-super-smash-bros-collection-557568?catGroupId=
Ronnie Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Up at GAME. Happy now. Pre-ordered! Thanks for the heads up.

If you switch to the mobile one you can preorder them.

david.dakota Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 I feel so sorry for my family, I've been a frumpy gucker all day. Happy bunny now. Aside from installing the Twitter app, I hate Twitter, anyone got any ideas on how to get, perhaps, an email from Twitter when Nintendo UK tweets with the #NintendoUKstore?
dazzybee Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) ShopTo Are basically testing how much they can charge for these things then? 14.99 - sell out. Upped to 19.99, probably didn't do as well, now just under 17. Utter cunts!! Edited May 20, 2015 by dazzybee

Upped to 19.99, probably didn't do as well, now just under 17. Utter cunts!! Supply and demand, my friend. Supply and demand. We may not like it but it's just business.

It's like your brain kicked into gear after that bit of verbal gymnastics. Shopto are bad price wise. I take it people are using them as a last resort.

I usually go Nintendo shop, GAME and then Shopto. If they fail then it's checking Argos and Toys R Us on release day. Finally, if all else fails ,then it's off to ebay I go.
Ronnie Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Very relieved to have gotten all three x2, Olimar especially. Though would have preferred the 3 from Pikmin 3

Aside from installing the Twitter app, I hate Twitter, anyone got any ideas on how to get, perhaps, an email from Twitter when Nintendo UK tweets with the #NintendoUKstore? Look into using IFTTT and something like pushbullet. IFTTT is a site that allows you to set up all kinds of recipes that you can then push to your phone or computer. Pushbullet is like a one stop notification house. I use IFTTT to set up an alert when certain posts are made on Twitter from the amiibofiguresuk account. You still need a Twitter login but you could set it up to send you an alert every time #NintendoUKstore is mentioned in a tweet.
Rummy Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 What was the last on Dedede? Wanted to buy one as a present for someone but all out on the official store, so I've gone for a standard Mario instead. Wish I wasn't so limited in my choices right now though
Glen-i Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Pure ipad auto spelling. I swear! So glad I got them from Nintendo, Havent axtually been punished by the 14.99 too much! Oh my daze! This is too funny. How did it miss that? You've outdone yourself this time!
Cube Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 My Inkling Girl Amiibo has been despatched from ShopTo. I apparently get a free keyring, too.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 22, 2015 Author Posted May 22, 2015 Shopto have already taken payment and started the process for my inklings, Jigglypuff and Greninja. I assume it's due to the bank holiday. EDIT: Beaten by Cube.
Wii Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Rumor: Nintendo now enforcing 1 amiibo character per customer rule in the UK The amiibo situation has been out of control almost since launch. Nintendo hasn’t been shipping enough figures for a number of characters, and scalpers have been taking advantage of the situation to drive up the prices on sites like eBay. Based on a rumored internal email stemming from GAME, it seems that Nintendo is starting to crack down on things. Apparently, Nintendo UK has sent new rules to major retailers, and the company is now actively enforcing the 1 amiibo per customer rule forcibly. That means consumers are only able to purchase one unit of each character. It’s all being done in attempt to cut down on the reselling market. I haven’t seen the email myself, but this information comes from the trustworthy information-leaker Liam Robertson. Assuming it’s true, it’s nice to see Nintendo finally looking to address some of amiibo’s issues. http://nintendoeverything.com/rumor-nintendo-now-enforcing-1-amiibo-character-per-customer-rule-in-the-uk/ https://mobile.twitter.com/Doctor_Cupcakes Might as well post some news. It's not like there's a Splatoon demo to be playing.
Serebii Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Nintendo UK have earmarked the money and processed my order for Greninja & Jigglypuff, as well as my Splatoon bundle. Awaiting dispatch
BowserBasher Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 My Spatoon amiibo pack has been dispatched from Nintendo store. Just waiting foe the Smash amiibo to be dispatched.
yesteryeargames Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Instead of 1 per customer why not produce more , bloody retards in charge of Nintendo , think of all the sales lost on gc adapters and amiibos
