Amiibo

You might find single cards on ebay going cheap once people start offloading their doubles but i seriously doubt you will be seeing packs or boxes sold for less than retail. May see some Japanese resellers trying it on but it's going to be a while till any english ones show up as America doesn't get it till Sept and Europe till Oct, lol by then Japan will already have series 2 which comes in September.

You never know with the way GAME manage to lose truck fulls of things of late... allegedly.

[Briareos]

All true, but retailers must be able to buy the boxes more cheaply than they sell them to make money right? It's quite likely I'm not understanding how shops work though.

Retailers get stuff cheaper because they buy in bulk.

Only if you buy a hundred of them.

If you buy any amount that is reasonable for one person, you'll save (quite literally) pennies.

The only way to do what you want to do is to buy a thousand boxes and sell what you don't need on eBay. Even doing that, the amount of money you'd save would probably still be minimal (this is the reason people don't commonly do this).

Wave 6 (?) of SSB4 amiibo up for pre-order on GAME.

Mii Fighters (Brawler, Gunner and Sword Fighter), Duck Hunt Duo, R.O.B (Western version) and Mr. Game & Watch all live now.

?15 a pop though so you might want to hold out for Nintendo UK Store or elsewhere.

400 is the official figure for how many Animal Crossing amiibo cards Nintendo are releasing (good luck collecting all those...)



Fighting so hard not to pre-order since I don't own or want a 3DS but suspect I will fail once it goes up on Nintendo's UK store

EDIT: Screw the above it'll be eBay to buy this if it's not coming to UK (or can anyone recommend a good importer of Japanese stuff to pre-order this with?)

[kryss]

400 total, spread out into 4 waves of 100.

[importaku]

Lol nothing to me, i'm a seasoned card collector. Kid icarus had more than that.

[Pikate]

Crazy people :P You'll get a lot of content out of Happy Home Designer and one assumes any future Animal Crossing games though...

[importaku]

Nothing new to animal forest they did this before with the ereader, on gamecube the first one had 4 series of cards and the second one had 3 series of cards. Will be interesting to see how crazy it gets, least theres a lot of content so it's worth going for them.

Cheers for this post was waiting for them to go live for preorders, currently sat on my bus on way home logged into amazon japan putting my preorder in before the marketplace scum get them all and triple the price.

Is there a date set for the Animal Crossing Amiibos? Is there anywhere to pre-order them?
Cheers

If the NX gets SFV id love some SF Amiibos

Seems the animal forest cards might not be so hard to collect for, yet more evidence that if you buy a full booster box then you get a complete set. Found 3 people opening booster boxes now and all of them got a complete sets out of one, looks like i will have some spares for Kryss and anyone else that's interested.

Should find out before friday if luck is on my side & i get a full set out of my box.

Sweet! I shall be waiting and breathing heavily outside your window.
