AND HE'S IN-STORE ONLY WITH NO PRE-ORDERS.

FUCK YOU BB, I'm buying a Japanese one from fucking Amazon. Oh wait, no, because the news this morning of just exclusivity already caused that price to start fucking climbing!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

God damn it. I don't necessarily have a problem with retailer exclusives, but with the low amiibo stock and no online option, this is pretty upsetting.

Actually, being store exclusive means that there's a bigger chance of getting it, because all the stock will be going to one chain instead of going to multiple chains.

Wrong. It means EVERYONE will be going to this ONE place now. It decreases the chances of getting it actually, because there's basically one chance. And with it in stores only, you're now competing with the loonies who will camp out for hours before the store opens... If you even have one close enough to warrant a drive to.

You know this means that the entire stock will be in one known locations, meaning that there is no chance of stumbling across one in a Walmart or anything, right?
Everyone knows it's in BB and it's not available online, so it's making it harder to find unless you live in an area where no one wants any Amiibos.

But does that mean Best Buy will limit purchases to 1 per customer? Because that extra stock will be pointless if scalpers are gonna buy them all up.

Best Buy limits one of each character per customer. So if you want him, you need to camp unless you have more than one nearby Best Buy. I only have two in my area, one lesser known to others. The lesser known one had an EXTREMELY low stock of Wave 4 on launch day, with the very first guy out of 4 (me being the 4th) to get the one Robin and Lucina. The more well known Best Buy had a line.

Glad I ordered a Japanese Dark Pit, saves me the time of hunting. Just bummed that the price went lower to $21 on the weekend, could've saved $2 :lol

That's something else that's getting me thinking that DarkPit will be easier to get than other unicorns. From what i've seen a lot of people just decided to import the dang things to complete they're collections to save the hassle, maybe this mean that there will be less competition at the launch day?

I think we need an amiibo thread so we can have these longer dicussions without interrupting the smash thread.

Technically were still talking about Smash because were still in the smash line of amiibo but yeah i think it'd be best.
