The Amiibo Topic

[MaestroUGC]

Only missing Smash Bros. Peach and Diddy Kong now! I have them all on a shelf, but now there's literally no room for any more of them... I'll have to take a picture once I figure something out. XD

You should put them all in a trash can with a written sign saying "Well spent money" taped to it and take a picture of you with a lit match over it.

[fingerz]

Hahaha! I'd do that just for you, Maestro.

Although, I don't think my friends would appreciate that very much... I've only bought a slither of those and most of them are provisional gifts (so long as they get to use them whenever), so I guess it's been a shared cost. I think I've only bought 4 or so... And only when they were on sale for $10.

@Maelstrom: Do you mean "how am I missing those two because they're easy to find" or "how do you have all the other ones?"

The former.

I guess it's just luck. I show up every now and again in a store and they happen to have one I don't have... Or my friends just ring me up and say, "Have you got ___? If not, I'll get it for you!"

Seriously, I walked into Target the other day to check out their game sales and there was a Sheik at the very front of a bunch of amiibos. I hadn't seen one to date, so I was like: "Oh, fancy that!" and bought it.

Yeah, I guess I'm lucky, that's all. XD

Nah, it's not luck, you just don't live in the States. Amiibo collecting is exponentially harder here : /

yeah i gave up after wave 3 :| getting too expensive and I have other stuff to be saving up for. Maybe once retailers get their head out of their collective ass, I'll start back up. But ordering from Amazon is too slippery a slope.

[Nebbles]

Amazon can get super expensive too, with scalpers and imports and all. Maybe after all the waves are out, it'll be easier to collect them?

[SlowPokemon]

Duck Hunt, R.O.B., and Mr. Game & Watch to be available only in a 3-pack, not sold separately. Sigh.

[Nebbles]

Well, good thing I want all three at least.

The damn thing finally pays off. Sucks for non-members.
