Toad is already sold out from GameStop...

Jeez...

Would any of you fine folks be willing to buy an extra Ness when wave 4 is announced, in case I don't make it to a computer in time?

If I get one, yours would be extra, but I doubt you'd have a hard time selling him (for a huge profit)

Anyone got my back?

I got your back! Only one class this semester so I'll be free almost all the time.... Unless they start taking orders at night

Cheers, thanks snoop!

Would not be surprised a bit if they picked a totally random time to open preorders, even in the middle of the night. We'll just have to take shifts.

Anybody else? Worst case scenario you end up with an extra Ness that you can sell for 10x the price.

I really can see Ness in particular selling out in less than an hour, so if there's at least a few of us watching out for each other our odds are certainly better.

I have the feeling that Nintendo is going to release gold and sliver edition of many amiibos.

i really believe the gold and silver will be a contest giveaway..meaning you'd keep entering codes from your games, and then Nintendo will give away 100 of each to lucky fans who win the contest promo type of thing..this way..people will keep doing surveys and Nintendo will gain marketing, but instead of shipping out thousands of prizes for redeeming points, they'd just have a total of 100 to send out..and because everyone is rabid crazy about amiibo's your gonna definitely spend the time doing game registration surveys in the hopes you'd be one of the 100 lucky winners etc..thats my theory..i see these as the "not for sale" types more like promo pieces...or COMIC CON style pieces...that'll really suck LOL..if it were San Diego Comic Con exclusive etc.

On the top right corner of the packaging, there's a label said gold/sliver edition amiibo, so I think it'll be two new editions of amiibos that will be released in the future...

I think nintendo should've known many fans are pissed off by the supply of amiibos, they'll be stupid if they release a more limited one. Many people will stop buying amiibos if they do that
