I was feeling a lot better yesterday after a painful Tuesday lying in bed with a headache the size of Ridley and a terrible cough. I was like "Ooh boi, school's over for today" at 2:39 yesterday. I #gottagofest'd to Target right across the street and immediately found myself in the Games section of the retail store.

Story time? I thought that was on Mondays! This must be important if this story is off schedule, lol, do tell!
02/05/2015 9:11 PM ·Spoilers
I just wish they would just restock on the rare amiibo's already (just like what they are doing with marth)
02/05/2015 9:12 PM ·Spoilers
This post is explicit on who I was looking for: Mah main gurl Rosalina. But I could only find -Mario -DK -Luigi -Peach -The yellow Poké poké -Fox -Samus -Peach -Yoshi -Kirby -Diddy Phantom So basically all the commons you always find. I was in need of assistance from one of le employees, so I found one.

What followed: "Hi there. There's these Nintendo figurines and I heard there was a Target exclusive. Do you-" "Rosalina?" "Yes, her." "Yeeeeah I'm sorry but there's no more. We were stocking them on Sunday morning and in less than 20 minutes from the opening of the store she was sold out." "O." "Yeah, I couldn't even get one for myself. She's a very hot item." "Yeah, I know. ;3" "What?" "Nothing."
02/05/2015 9:22 PM ·Spoilers
"I don't even know when we'll restock them. I'm sorry man." "It's alright." "Wow, you're the only one who's reacted to this disappointment in a mature manner. And you're still a kid!" I knew it was adults who took 'em all... "Thanks. I'll be ready when you guys DO restock. And thanks for the help." "Okay bye." "Later." Then I stepped outside and...

Why don't you ask Diane? She does has ten of them...

..kicked the nearest tree. JK but I really wanted too. I was extremely disappointed. Seriously, Nintendo. These figures are popular. Make more of each so people can have their favorite characters on their desks or something. Best part is that they know darn well about this predicament and just tell us "Well, gotta preorder fast!" Instead of mass-producing these figurines. -_-
02/05/2015 9:29 PM ·Spoilers
I feel your pain greatly- I tried getting a rosalina and apparently the preorders were so great not one of the rosies made it to the store, all there was, was bowsers. The worst part is the store helpers didn't even know what an amiibo was :I
02/05/2015 9:30 PM ·Spoilers
the producing of the amiibos is just really ridiculous. And instead of putting more rare amiibos, what do they give us? GOLD / METAL MARIO! THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED!
02/05/2015 9:30 PM ·Spoilers
either gotta be incredibly lucky or just camp outside the friggin shop and literally run to get one. its not like its midnight launch of like a game, these things can probably be manufactured ALOT more and then there wouldn't be issues ogof people hoarding them and flogging them on eBay for ludicrous prices...
02/05/2015 9:31 PM ·Spoilers
Hopefully they'll make more, I still need my Lucario and Bowser Amiibo. Hang in dude, you'll get that Rosalina Amiibo sooner or later (preferably sooner)!
02/05/2015 9:32 PM ·Spoilers
I just want Sonic and PAC-MAN. But I am pretty sure those will be out of stock the day they come out. Nintendo, is it THAT hard to restock amiibo? In fact, I only have Bowser.
02/05/2015 9:35 PM ·Spoilers
And apparently Sonic will be exclusively online. $50 Rosalinas on eBay are the cheapest I could find. And I though $12 was more than expensive for these decent-ish looking amiibos. Srsly, Two-headed Marth 3-handed Peach Break dancing DK Bowser with no head Sloppy paintjobs I'll wait for a two-tailed Fox if you know what I'm referencing.
02/05/2015 9:38 PM ·Spoilers
I'm still waiting for my Megaman, Sheik, & Toon Link I preordered for Gamestop, still waiting, they said they haven't canceled my preorder, but they still haven't gotten their shipment...
02/05/2015 9:38 PM ·Spoilers
$50 for a small Rosalina amiibo!? That's awful, no seriously that's messed up, no way someone should waste 50 bucks on that. Yes Rosalina is awesomeness but I think that's a bit much...<_<
02/05/2015 9:38 PM ·Spoilers
HOLY COW, JESSE, THANK YOU. I MIGHT HAVE THE CHANCE. Lol, nope. My Dad says they are too expensive because of the shipping price. I tried buying a Meta Kinght amiibo that was $5.00(!) online, and I had to pay $20 more dollars. -_- why must this world hate me...
02/05/2015 9:44 PM ·Spoilers
You know I do wonder if Nintendo was intentionally creating artificial scarcity with these Amiibos. -_- Anyway this is just been getting ridiculous and I'm so annoyed at how I can't buy the Amiibos I want. And I'm not handing those scalpers any of my money that I don't have much of. >:(
02/05/2015 9:48 PM ·Spoilers
I feel your pain, Jesse. It would take a miracle in order to receive a Rosalina amiibo. ;u; And yeah, I agree. I really don't like the idea of exclusive amiibos in certain stores. It just seems a bit unfair to sell fan-favorite characters in just one retail store. I really don't get why Nintendo thought this was a good idea.
02/05/2015 9:49 PM ·Spoilers
I honestly want to cry right now. My friend says that he will try to get me PAC-MAN for my birthday. Fat chance. There is no hope for the Wave 3 amiibos. Here are the people I despise, amiibo related: Scalpers Mariotehplumber Retailers (FRICKING BOWSER EVERYWHERE) Who else should I add?
02/05/2015 9:51 PM ·Spoilers
I know... I got really lucky with my Pit-Pat! Honestly, you would've had better luck over here. Nobody cares about amiibo, and when I went to get Villager (ON DECEMBER 20th!!!) there were FIVE OF THEM. FIVE!!! People here REALLY don't play Nintendo...
02/05/2015 9:54 PM ·Spoilers
@QuazaKirby Add those guys at Nintendo who are responsible with handling Amiibo production.
02/05/2015 9:57 PM ·Spoilers
@Jesse That somehow reminded me of the movie Jingle All The Way. "We are all out of those Rosalina Amiibos but we still have plenty of Mario's rival, Bowser." XD
02/05/2015 10:00 PM ·Spoilers
*I meant to say Bowser is not he only amiibo I have. He is the only WAVE 3 amiibo I have. This is too frustrating. EVRY WEBSITE I GO ON ITS SO FRICKING EXPENSIVE TO BUY A SINGLE AMIIBO! WHY CANT YOU GUYS JUST NOT FOLLOW IN MR. KRABS' FOOTSTEPS!? WHY IS THIS WORL SO CRUEL TO US MIIVERSIANS?! WHY DO AMIIBOS EVEN EXIST!? THEY CAUSE CHAOS FOR EVRYONE!! Sorry about that...
02/05/2015 10:06 PM ·Spoilers
@QuazaKirby Well it is Nintendo's fault. They stop producing certain Amiibos that completely sell out?... You know maybe they are doing this on purpose. :|
02/05/2015 10:06 PM ·Spoilers
Oh, and Le Jesse, thanks. You just reminded me of wave 3, which reminded me that I need a DDD amiibo. Time to start the hunt... Again... :l
02/05/2015 10:10 PM ·Spoilers
//psst Check japan sites They seem to have no problem with "rare" amiibos Plus shipping isnt too bad, the least you can pay for an amiibo is about 20 including shipping
02/05/2015 10:11 PM ·Spoilers
I feel like the one awkward guy in this post that wants the Bowser amiibo while everyone else dislikes him... Btw, you Miis think they'll change their mind about this "favorite system" (or whatever it's called) and actually make plenty more so we won't have to waste 50 bucks on ONE rare Amiibo?
02/05/2015 10:16 PM ·Spoilers
I'm sorry to hear that Jesse. I'm sure you'll find one eventually.
02/05/2015 10:17 PM ·Spoilers
According to IGN, Shigeru Miyamoto said that Nintendo is planning on restocking and reselling rare Amiibo as cards.

I'll pay a visit to a local Best Buy on a weekend, hopefully they'll have what I'm looking for especially since everyone is still battling it out for Rosalina and any other rare Amiibos!
02/05/2015 11:25 PM ·Spoilers
When I saw your drawing just like for 5 seconds, and I thought in my head and said ''when you think about bæ''
02/06/2015 12:55 AM ·Spoilers
Just preorder at Gamestop and problem solved. Except for the retailer exclusives. The Target, Best Buy and Toys R Us exclusives are a nightmare to get now.
02/06/2015 6:36 AM ·Spoilers
Because simply going to your local Best Buy and asking for one Meta Knight amiibo is TOO much to ask.
02/06/2015 7:01 AM ·Spoilers
Can't even order from GAMESTOP, BEST BUY, TARGET, TOUS R US, ANYWHERE!
02/06/2015 8:07 AM ·Spoilers
Same goes with Gamecube-Adapters. The lil' brother cries everytime 'bout it xD
02/06/2015 9:07 AM ·Spoilers
Aww that sucks. Here in Canada they aren't a Target exclusive, but they are really hard to find. One GameStop here only got 2 of them. I just hope that I'll be able to find one because I am not buying one for $50 online. ._.
02/06/2015 6:50 PM ·Spoilers
and i though i was the only person without a Rosalina Amiibo...
02/06/2015 6:56 PM ·Spoilers
Nintendo finds the thing that prints money, and makes 3 of them. YOU'RE THE ONLY COMPANY THAT DOES THAT
02/06/2015 6:57 PM ·Spoilers
WHY THE BACKWARDS LOGIC NINTENDO? DON'T YOU WANT MY MONEY?
02/06/2015 7:02 PM ·Spoilers
"Iwata?! Iwata!! We need confirmation for 2 million more Amiibo shipments!! We need your approval!!" "Eh.... Nah... I've had enough endless money for today."
02/06/2015 7:15 PM ·Spoilers
I know lots of people who don't want a Rosalina amiibo. And that's fine. Unless you go and buy them all up just so the fans can't and infuriate us.
02/06/2015 8:12 PM ·Spoilers
The demand won't go down that early. Not for a character like Rosalina.
