amiibo (NFC)

Missed the Game restock for Shulk, but thought I'd have a look if I could find one elsewhere and managed to get one reserved at Argos. Sent my mum on an expedition to fetch it (not exactly my local Argos) and she's just rung to say she's got it! Finally up to date with amiibo and no markup (well okay petrol) either. :yay:

Managed to reserve a Marth in the local ARGOS. Kinda tempted to go for it as it might be the new face print - I have the new Villager too, it's very interesting to own different "versions" of the characters. Very nice to see Nintendo working to improve the quality.

 

I hear Palutena is kinda derpy in the new wave...?

What got restocked exactly? I have a fair idea, but just to be clear. Shulk, King Dedede, the Fire Emblem characters(Robin, Lucina, Marth and Ike), some Little Macs, Dark Pit and Palutena?

 

Weren't the Fire Emblem characters planned for last month to coincide with Codename Steam? Don't answer, they were.

Dark Pit and Palutena are new ones.

 

Zelda and Kirby also got restocked.

I think most of them were, apart from Rosalina.

 

The restocked clearly weren't nationwide. Not a single GAME, Argos or Toys R Us near me got any stock of Dedede, Little Mac or Shulk.

Just received an email from the Nintendo store - amiibo will be restocked this week on there. Also included some code for 30% discount off the amiibo 8 figure travel case. Maybe this will come in handy for you guys?

 

No mention of what figures though, probably the ones discussed here.

They're not available in Ireland either. Only Argos have Shulk and King Dedede available for reservation next week. And only Smyths have put Little Mac back on their website but it's not available, maybe it'll be available soon.

I kinda really want a Shulk one...

 

You know? I look at it and I'm just rally feeling it.

Will have to keep an eye out for it.

(Probably won't happen though, I can't even get a single Yarn Yoshi while some of you have all 3, you greedy smegs!)

So I assume if you've ordered 1 on the Nintendo store months back, you can't now order a second of the same one? It's one per customer lifetime, not just 1 per order right?

 

I'm gonna assume it's one per order. Would be a bit harsh if say an Amiibo broke and you wanted another but they refused.

Maybe in the UK they were. But they've only been available in Ireland since today and only in thieving Gamestop.

Ok? Well sucks for Ireland.

 

Why is this an issue for you, anyway? You don't collect amiibo and are constantly grousing about them existing.

I don't just write Ireland as my address. Other people do live here too you know.

I take it Shulk is one you still need? I reserved one at the Metro Centre for someone but they don't need it now, so if you want the reservation number you can have it? I also have reservations at Grantham and Melton Mowbray that I don't need if anyone wants them and can get there tomorrow.
