I've been fortunate enough to order all my amiibo thus far from Nintendo UK online store but missed out on shulk dedede and metaknight there so went to amazon for them and got the emails earlier they've all been pushed back
Ooohh fantastic massive fan of fire emblem here and I'll take anything that is similar to It in gameplay My Game Boy Advance was my tactical RPG machine what with advance wars fire emblem and final fantasy tactics the 3DS is getting close to it's legendary status... just pray this comes west!!
@Classic603 Only place I know of is ebay I have purchased wind waker, majora's mask and ocarina of time ones from there all from japan at reasonable prices too in the region of 20 quid each.
But I recently received my Vyse statue from first 4 figures which is absolutely bootyful So I can't spend anymore money for a while anyway... But if these guys do a badass toon link i'll bite lol
@orangetack Don't worry about that! There's a special game mechanic that stops you from doing that.. I won't say what it is cause I wouldn't wanna spoil the surprise but when you get to it you'll just be like oh my god this game is amazing!!
I have a few worries about this game now after seeing this video
The bomber's notebook is giving to you by the happy maskman.. what has happened to the start of the game then? Is that still in there??
Also Goht.. if they've changed that boss battle I will be so upset!! Greatest boss battle of any Zelda ever.
Hopefully they add a option where you can play a "classic" version and it's just the game unchanged from the original. Also a bit of an annoyance for me and this is from OOT 3D too why can't we play the ocarina with the D-Pad substituting the c buttons?? all this L,R,A,B,X,Y crap confuses me
I can play all the ocarina songs off by heart with c buttons and b but can't remember any of them in this new way
The Nintendo online store is great! I use It for all my gaming needs now yeah it charges full R.R.P for everything but that doesn't really bother me and I like to support Nintendo... "Directly!" (see what I did there )
Living in the UK as a Nintendo fan pays off at last! hurrah!
Thanks for the heads up on this guys! Would be sweet if you let us know when wave 4 amiibo's are up for preorder as well! I need ness and lucina so bad!
I checked my account and it was actually 2002 I joined the website but still a long time! I just find it ironic how they've rewarded these "loyal fans" with the opportunity to buy one but then they go and sell it on ebay.. some fans eh??
I am in exactly the same boat as you my friend hundreds of games purchased and registered tens of consoles and had me account since about the year 2000.
But I have been neglected and received no email.. I might email them to complain!
That's not the reason you got the email I have 1 2DS 1 3DS and 3 XL's and over 40 3DS games and no email and as you can no doubt tell I'm pretty annoyed about it!
Yeah this isn't gonna happen lol no way would they release a console without any official confirmation inside of a week also the 12th is Monday right?
I've never heard of a console in the UK being released on any other day but a Friday.
Even games only ever get released Fridays there are exceptions with the likes of call of duty and stuff which have released on Tuesday to coincide with the American launch but that's it.
@RupeeClock
Pfft what's the point I've registered hundreds of games and tens of consoles in my lifetime on that damn site filled out endless amounts of surveys and I didn't get no stinking email... I'm not bitter about it though...
While I'm in no doubt that the statue is going to be high in quality, I'm not too upset about missing out on it in the UK cause I have a skull kid statue from first4figures which is top notch!
Gutted with all this selling out nonsense.. been holding off getting amiibos so I can get them off family for Christmas... wish I just went and bought all the ones I wanted now cause I might not get a chance to own them now it seems.
Hmm I'm a bit concerned about amiibos after seeing the article on kotaku a couple of days ago comparing the production ones to the display ones.
Granted they probably picked some of the worst examples but I don't want to buy any amiibos online just in case I get a poor quality one I would rather go to the shop and pick out ones in good condition.
BUT all the main ones I'm interested in will be the "limited edition" ones and might not even get any shelf space at all in my local GAME store. I need all the Fire Emblem ones It's such a great series!!
Yep got em all already stored in my poke bank nice and safe ( well except for the likes of arceus, genesect, darkrai and their ilk I think I need 9 of these mythical pokemon.
But then I did start playing pokemon with red and blue I do possess all the games and all the consoles I need
I had to go back to ruby and sapphire and break out my old GBA to complete my bank... and then they announce remakes for those games... lol
Yeah it is improving but if these guys are in charge I would like to grab hold of them and say "hey!! Where are the bloody tv adverts???!!!" I've seen 5 PS4 adverts tonight no wonder it's selling so much better and quite frankly they deserve it due to their far superior marketing. Come on guys you need to sort things out!
This is sad news but the writing has been on the wall for a little while.
The editor Matthew Castle was on his own producing last month's mag and the website is barely updated they still have E3 on the front page and absolutely no mention of the new 3DS so I knew this was coming.
I've bought a issue every month for many many years back when it was NOM ever since my first issue back in 96/97 time, Banjo Kaooie was on the front that's how long ago it was!!
It is a miracle in this day and age that it's lasted so long! I'll miss going down smiths to get my monthly mag! While I can get all the info faster off the net it's just not the same!
We need a transparent Wii U!! My first Gameboy colour was transparent And I would've sold my right arm for one of the transparent N64's they released!! Only had a boring black one At least I had one though!!
Mine arrived today nice and early! not expecting it to be a classic but still excited! But I think too many people put too much emphasis on reviews and scores and how it affects their decision. Everyone is different and everyone likes different things a lot of my favourite games have only scored average.

Re: Collectors Be Warned, Some amiibo Figures Will Be "Limited-Time" Offers
