@Deltadon example : I sure that if you missed out on wii fit trainer, you want her for the collection and you're not dying to get a card so you can have that character level up
I personally think the cards are mostly a waste of time. Majority of people collecting amiibo are collecting for the nintendo figurine. The skins/dlc you get from amiibo are lagniappe. I doubt there is even a small number of people who are only interested in the game content and not the figure.
I have purchased amiibo because it's a chance to have nintendo merchandise, especially those of lesser popularity.
I don't expect them to flood the market with reprints, but when NOA is facing scalper issues, I'd like for things to be a little easier to grab than having to have in stock alerts/checking forums every few minutes to see if the next wave is up for pre order or in stock.
Cards are a terrible idea. I'd rather more availability of figures.
Gameplay looks interesting. Price is right. Claylike graphics are looking good. Will pick this up at end of week. Hopefully I'll be able to snag MK and K DDD amiibo same day.
But from the looks of it amiibo support for it will be near impossible bc scalpers have pre ordered all the king dedede and meta knight amiibo, and will more than likely buy all stock at retailers. Hurrah NOA!
I just wish there was a better supply in NOA or less of a scalper scenario. I don't have any solutions, just wish these things were a little more obtainable.
I'm super disappointed. I missed the pre orders and now I run risk of missing out on these. Also importing prices have gotten crazy. Pretty much a bummer here in NOA.
AND before snarky comments happen about pre orders being available, I was paying off medical bills and just couldn't at the time : /
I never played dk on snes growing up. My first experience was tropical freeze. Boy was it crazy hard in a bad way. I gave up on it after playing it somewhat regularly for 2 months. Guess I just never mastered the DK game play. I suck.
8/10 as well. Waverace on snow is perfect description. Back in the rental days, I grabbed this game half a dozen times for $1 rentals. I'd love a U eshop release.

I'd take these on a home console too. I'd be down for all of these with that buy it get the code for the other device (wiiu / 3ds) deal.
We need to get that to be the norm.

Re: Mega Man amiibo Pre-Orders Reportedly Delayed Into March By Amazon in North America
This supply issue on NOA is awful. Nintendo is making money but scalpers may be in a close second.
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D (3DS)
Skipped this for 64. Didn't know about time travel mess. I'd be willing to give it a shot.
Can anyone tell me on a scale of 1-100 (100 being most difficult) where this would rank?
