Title: The Sorry State of Amiibos
Post by: Hiro on January 13, 2015, 07:51:18 PM
I didn't see one of these so we should probably have a place to discuss amiibo

Here's a list of amiibo:

Smash Bros

[spoiler=Wave 1]Donkey Kong

Peach
Pikachu
Samus
Villager

Little Mac
Luigi
Pit
Zelda
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Wave 3]Bowser
Ike
King Dedede
Lucario (Toys R Us exclusive)
Mega Man
Meta Knight (Best Buy exclusive)
Rosalina & Luma (Target exclusive)
Sheik
Shulk (GameStop exclusive)

[spoiler=Wave 4 (3/20)]Robin

There is also a Nintendo Direct tomorrow morning at 9am EST, so Wave 4 could possibly be announced to coincide with the amiibo-compatible New 3DS

Newly announced figures:
Smash Bros line: Robin, Lucina, Pac-Man, Ness, Wario, Charizard (Wave 4, Launch Date TBA)
Super Mario line: Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, Bowser, Toad (Launch Mar 20, price not yet confirmed)

The Super Mario line of Amiibo is new. The main difference is appearance: different poses, different stand. An Amiibo of the same character will function the same in all games regardless which Amiibo line it's from. Toad in particular is exclusive to the Super Mario line.

also some of the amiibo functionality they announced today:
Smash Bros 3DS supports Amiibo when played on N3DS, exactly the same behavior as Wii U version
Mario Party 10 does a lot of Amiibo stuff with all Mario-related figures, including even Rosalina and Wario
Code Name Steam supports all of the Fire Emblem characters, using them to unlock that character as playable; the unlock isn't permanent as you'll have to rescan after they die. Marth's amiibo in particular is getting a rerelease so that people can actually buy him for this.

I think most amiibo actually look pretty nice. Of course they have some minor flaws that are especially noticeable when you zoom in on them with a good camera, but they're also pretty well-detailed for the size.

and most importantly they're of Nintendo characters that I actually care about
Title: Re: The Amiibo Thread
Post by: silvertone on January 14, 2015, 09:30:20 PM
the ones i saw, in person, had glaring flaws. This was at the store so these things were brand new. like mario's mustache was painted all the way and DK looked like he had lip stick. it looked pretty bad, maybe i just saw a Bad Batch  but ,,.

All the ones with small faces seem to look a bit wonky, but the more cartoonish ones look really good, which I think is a limitation of making them more affordable and small enough to fit on the gamepad. Functionality is neat although not ideal, and I think it's the fact that they're actual Nintendo-brand figurines and not just officially-licensed to a different company.

Anywhow here's some good pictures of Wave 4:

Dark toilet has slightly more pronounced eyeliner than toilet, thus the separate character spots on the roster.

I really want shiek and ness. Maybe mega man, and zero suit samus if I'm feeling frisky.

Yet, I don't get what to do with them. Level them up...then what?

Watch 2 amiibos battle it out? That sounds stupid.

But yes...I still want shiek and ness.

so, i trained both of my amiibos (marth & luigi) to 50, and MAN they are really fucking good

though, i've heard that they have more weight, can do more knockback, and hit harder than usual.  (even if customization is off wtf).  artificial difficulty lame af.  i wish that these little stat mods could be turned off somehow for a more fair fight.  depends on how you train them though. 

they punish good though

they are much more better than lv 9 cpus

I managed to at least preorder the Splatoon 3-set a long time ago, which just shipped tonight.

Post by: bluaki on May 30, 2015, 12:22:50 AM
Lucina was legitimately in-stock at Amazon today for somewhere around 10 seconds
it went out so fast that, with the way Amazon's server load management works, most users couldn't ever see it in stock even if they were refreshing every 3 seconds
it's kinda impressive for something to sell out this fast

Robin was a little more fortunate, lasting (supposedly) a whole 40 seconds.

In related news, I didn't bother getting any of the Smash Amiibo that released today. I'm pretty interested in Lucina and somewhat in Robin and Ness, but not enough to deal with that madness.

why would you give cwc money

you say it like i just gave it to him for nothing
well actually that is debatable
and well ebay fees prob make that less but anyway i bought it b/c i think it is art in a way

i mean poorly made
but the name behind it has a rich history and means something to me (not in a good way)
but yea it's a disaster ofc

[ugh i spent like 30min explaining the reason why but i accidentally deleted it and now have no patience]

i mainly bought it because it disturbs me but moreso just interesting to me
with the context of cwc

to me
it's a collage of years of being in fantasy, nostalgia and antagonism

i wash my hands every time i touch it though bc me and my friend think he may not have good hygiene i mean there was some hair stuck to the tape lol ew


also thank god at least he thought to take out the reflective sheet under the amiibo box so i can still play with it.

QuoteHanson: Given the turbulent release of Amiibo characters, are you doing anything to prepare for the high demand for Star Wars figures?

Vignocchi: There is never an intention to create a shortage of any figures. It is irresponsible and rude to your hardcore fans. They don’t want to create frustration or the hunt. So they will be stocking the shelves well!


he is absolutely correct

anyone who buys amiibo at this point is begging for things like animal crossing amiibo party and contributing to nintendo's demise

well, ended up giving rosalina & luma to my niece because she likes her and lol let's get real here, no kid is ever gonna get their hands on one lmaoooo

she treats it like treasure after i told her she's one of the most sought after amiibos

and gave my nephew the smash luigi amiibo

kept the jigglypuff amiibo but may end up giving it to my niece b/c it doesn't suit me idk.

update:

certain people are claiming that the rumors are true and have gotten confirmation from gamestop employees, though a lot of people are also calling in themselves to confirm and a number have said employees were clueless.  called six stores myself and only one thinks it may be true and others didn't know about it.

though, the source claims that mostly only the higher ups know about it (like ppl above district managers?)

on thursday, that's when store managers have their little conferences together- or so i've heard anyway

im thinking about camping for these

My personal collection is almost there...

the retro 3 pack is actually pretty great for me though because it saves me a little money as those 3 along with olimar and zss are the ones I currently need
then I'll just need Blue Yarn Yoshi, Roy, Lucas, Ryu, Chibi-Robo, and all the Animal Crossing amiibo, both figures and cards, and I'll be complete sillydood;

More Animal Crossing figures announced for a second wave: Blathers, Celeste, Resetti, and Kicks
http://nintendoeverything.com/more-animal-crossing-amiibo-figures-revealed/

I want most of them myface;

For reference, AC's first wave will have: Isabelle+Digby (game bundle), KK+Reese+Cyrus (3 pack), Lottie, Mabel, and Tom Nook

By the way, the Smash Bros series is almost complete, with the only unreleased figures being Falco, Mii, and DLC. I question whether amiibo will remain as successful after that.

Out of the 12 animal crossing amiibo, I honestly don't care much for Digby, Lottie, Reese, Cyrus, or Kicks, but I do want the other 7.
I'll have to get 3 of those 5 because they're bundled with other figures that I do want. I'll either end up with 10 animal crossing amiibo or maybe skip out on KK's bundle.

Lucina and Robin are the only two I want and haven't been able to find in stock ever.

Got a fuckin Dark Pit for my niece and Pac-man for the middle nephew.

Lol, this is the last Amiibo I'm buying her, she needs to earn one on her own.  Well, she did technically earn the ones I bought her, but this time without my influence.  And this may be the last Amiibo I get for my nephew, as well.

Lottie's fucking gross but I can't just skip one out of the whole collection.
Also, based on all of the currently announced AC amiibo as well as all the AC characters available as costumes in Mario Maker, I'm pretty sure Timmy & Tommy as well as Rover are getting figures as well.
If nothing else I require Isabelle and KK but really I want all of them.

Wonder about Gracie, Shrunk, Harriet, Leif, Pelly, Phyllis, Pete, Booker, Copper, Tortimer, Kapp'n, Katie, Sable, Labelle, Blanca, Redd, Brewster, Porter, Saharah, Wendell, Joan, Katrina, Lyle, Pascal, Gulliver, Luna, Phineas, and of course Pave

includes: Dedede, Palutena, Squid, more Animal Crossing cards
in total, 27 figures vs Tyler's 42
and we have a mutually exclusive card collection

Out of all my amiibo figures, Palutena's is probably my favorite n_n

worth getting a significant icon of my childhood

recently i got a captain falcon, little max, greninja, and pac-man as gifts for others :3
i mean i guess they dont count since im getting them for other ppl but was nice seeing them in stock omggg

my best buy may have a shitload of marths and fox so getting on that if they look better than the one i already have

I waited in GameStop for well over two hours on my birthday to get him preordered, but since I was trying to get 2 of them (my sister met up with me to get one for her boyfriend), I let her go first, and- oh hey Ness is no longer available, he won't let me have it even though he's sitting at home doing shit, happy birthday me. On launch day I got there 3 (or was it 4) hours before open and was the only one there for 2 hours since everyone else was across the parking lot in line at Target for Jigglypuff for some reason.

i just fucking preordered falco from japan

im an amiibo FIEND

[spoiler]it's not even for me, it's a gift for my brother.  we had a bet sometime ago and i said that if i lost, i'd never get to play falco again and pay him out $40.  and if he lost, he'd give me $40 and he's banned from playing falco.  well, i lost LMAO and i did get back the $40 for an emergency.  but im planning to give him this for compensation of doing that.  bought him fox as well.[/spoiler]

I now have all 7 AC amiibo (Isabelle+Digby, KK+Resse+Cyrus, Mabel, Nook), Mewtwo, and Mega Yarn Yoshi sillydood;

I happened to be visiting my family this weekend. The only Toys R Us in Tampa closed down about 12 years ago and was remodeled into a Babies R Us, so getting that Mega Yoshi meant driving ~40mins to the nearest store. I showed up about 5mins after they opened yesterday, ended up in a line behind ~20 other people, and snagged the second-to-last Yoshi they had in stock. I walked past about 6 people who wanted it but wouldn't get one on my way out.

Also, I found a "20% off one item" coupon online that actually worked.

Not quite $70, but:
* In March, I paid $50 the Mario Party 10 bundle of a kinda-garbage game with an amiibo I didn't really care for
* Last week, I paid $60 for the Amiibo Festival bundle of a kinda-decent game with one amiibo I really wanted and another I didn't care for
* On Sunday, I bought the $40 Mega Yoshi, but used a 20% off coupon for a $32 price.

Although I have Gold Mario, I don't intend to buy any more recolors.

what is even the appeal of NiB for amiibos in particular

it's not like they have an enormous resale value worth the storage and risk
displaying and collecting figures is always better out-of-box and even the people who actually use them in games can't use them while sealed
the triple packs and game bundles in particular make keeping NiB amiibo collections even worse

for all my anime figures, I at least keep the box in my closet after removing the figure, but amiibo boxes go straight in the trash

it's 60 online  saddood;
I bought mine for $32 giggle;

I had to drive quite a distance to reach the nearest Toys R Us right when they opened, and I managed to snag one of the last two after like 30 other people had already bought theirs. I also had a 20% Off Any Item coupon.

every single one of you is personally responsible for this ghouldood;

each of the millions of dollars being foolishly spent on amiibo is another confirmation for nintendo that its """fans""" are perfectly comfortable with the idea of physical, day-one, on-disc dlc arbitrarily locked behind a $13 paywall that may or may not actually be available on store shelves at msrp due to the tried-and-true artificial scarcity tactic that nintendo loves to use to manufacture demand

any good nintendo fan could have predicted that this would inevitably be the outcome of the amiibo experiment and chosen not to support it, but alas, nintendo has no good fans left

just an army of nostalgia-drunk enablers

an ever-shrinking army, perhaps for the best (http://i.imgur.com/tReUmzU.gif)

also i would totally be into amiibos if i could walk into a store and buy the ones i wanted, but the CAMP OUT FOR WEEKS shit that was going on in the early amiibo frenzy totally set me off. i just wanted like a villager and a ness and maybe a captain falcon BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

what i think would be really innovative on nintendo if it created an amiibo that not only had nfc capabilities but had wifi too.  that way, your kid could take your nfc-equipped phone with credit card information stored inside it and then use it with the wifi-enabled amiboo to buy micro-transactions their game prompted them to.

The "rare" ones I have, such as Ness, little Mac, and shulk I was just lucky enough to find them at game stop.

I got King Dedede in the mail. No pictures, a coworker/friend died in a car accident and I've been staying off of social media. Too sad.


I'm expecting Pit from Japan soon. More pictures to come.

Also thanks to eBay I have ordered the remaining cards from series 1 of the Animal Crossing series. They should all be here in time for me to start collecting series 2.  hocuspocus;
Title: Re: The Sorry State of Amiibos
Post by: Hiro on February 06, 2016, 02:53:17 AM
I only have Shulk in-box, only got him to trade/sell though
Shovel Knight looks nice, also I NEED EVERY ANIMAL CROSSING AMIIBO AND I HAVE NONE (or Isabelle and KK at the very least ;_;)
Only have 2 packs of the cards and they kinda suck so I'm done with those, one of those official binders with every card would be nice but it's not worth the money/effort to me
I got Chibi-Robo for Christman, and Lucas just the other day~~
Preordered Roy, gonna order Famicom ROB at some point, undecided if I want Cloud, Bayonetta, or Ryu yet
but I think I'm mostly done after that, unless they surprise us with some great new ones

Among all existing and known upcoming amiibo, the only ones left that I want are Robin, Lucina, Wolf Link, and Corrin. Hopefully the Fire Emblem figures will get American restocks soon for the Fire Emblem Fates release, but if they don't, I'll just not get Lucina or Robin. I won't pay more than MSRP for them.

I and several other boyagers are partially responsible giggle;

The 21.5 million amiibo cards surprises me a little. I don't doubt that they count every individual card as one "unit" (6 cards per SKU in America, 3 in Japan), but even then it doesn't seem like any of the Animal Crossing stuff is as popular as the Smash figures.

i certainly hope not, but they've proven to be such a resounding success that nintendo would be crazy to abandon them awdood;

in fact i think kimmy even said to expect further amiibo integration in the next gen

Post by: C.Mongler on February 17, 2016, 06:39:01 AM
yeah considering amiibos are keeping nintendo afloat at this point it'd be fuckin' mad to dump them completely. i wouldn't be surprised if they come up with AMIIBO 2.0 and reshit out the entire collection again, but hopefully that won't be the case.


hopefully they just die with the wii u and 3ds but i think that's also unlikely

yeah this is probably going to happen, just new poses and likely expanded memory so they can have more than one game's data on them

New amiibo announced today

Mario series: Wario, Waluigi, Daisy, Rosalina, Boo, DK, Diddy
[spoiler=Mario](http://i.imgur.com/M8H22lr.png)[/spoiler]

Zelda: Archer Link, Rider Link, and Guardian
[spoiler=Zelda](http://i.imgur.com/eDJ8oCG.png)[/spoiler]

The existence of new Mario amiibo probably implies they actually do have plans for another Mario game of some sort this year. Or it might just be for Paper Mario.
