Saw last night that my Mega Man, Dedede, and Ike came in the mail. (Being completely honest, I'm not sure why I got an Ike, since I've never played a Fire Emblem game in my life. I do love the Kirby series and I love how Dedede plays, though—he's become one of my mains in this iteration of the game, such a good heavy-hitter while also not being too slow and having good defense. As for Mega Man, I liked his look enough in this game that I felt it'd be criminal not to get an amiibo of him, and I've recently been getting into the series.)
Samus I'd actually picked up on a whim when I got her. I went to the mall to visit a friend of mine at her job, but she wasn't there. So I'd wandered around the mall for a while and decided I'd feel like I'd look stupid and ridiculous for some reason if I left the mall empty handed, since my reason for going in the first place was a flop, and just decided to get a Samus amiibo in the Gamestop there since I wanted to travel to Russia and bypass their subway security.
The postscript of this story is that I wouldn't have walked out empty-handed anyway had I not bought it, since an attractive salesperson flirted her way into getting me to buying a set of heating pads that I could not at all afford.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.I am debating on who my next Amiibo should be:
- Lucario
- Captain Falcon
- Marth
- Link
- Samus
- Little Mac
- Mega Man
- Sonic
Mii Brawler.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.I wonder what the second batch of Mario Party 10 amiibo will include. I'm guessing new versions of DK, Rosalina, and Wario alongside Daisy and Waluigi.
Well, I just got Smash Bros Yoshi on clearance. At least that's one figure I own that'll work with Mario Party 10. I probably shouldn't feed it too many items if I decide to use it in Smash for the meantime though.
Huh, I also just now realized the Toon Link amiibo also unlocks the Link racing suit in MK 8. I guess that's logical and all.

Ordered Bowser and Peach from Walmart. Those are the only ones I could find at their normal price. God dammit Nintendo.
It also unlocks the spinner in Hyrule Warriors.

Well, I wasn't really planning on get any more amiibos, but I actually managed to find a Sonic at a Best Buy near me when I was going to preorder Xenoblade 3D. They also happened to have Sheik, but I didn't get that one. Still, good find?
Just recieved an email from my store saying they got a hold of my backordered Lucario amiibo. Sweet! Now to see if they also manage to get Rosalina's and Shulk's eventually.

"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."Got me a Meta Knight. Looks cool as expected.
I just ordered a Samus Amiibo.
You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!Named my Samus Sammy Sosa, still not sure what to name Link.
PSN ID: FateSeraph | Switch friendcode: SW-0145-8835-0610 Congratulations! She/TheyYou should name him "Dumbfuck" or Bort.
You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!Well, part of me wants to name him Tapion, (and yes, I know that character predates Ocarina by 3 years) but not enough of me to do it without further consideration.

PSN ID: FateSeraph | Switch friendcode: SW-0145-8835-0610 Congratulations! She/TheyI named mine Oni.
Name him Butts McGee.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Why not name him Abe?
If that's how we're doing it, name him Wray and play the guitar every time you use him.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Yes! I am now the owner of a Shulk amiibo.
I wish they would hurry up and start pre-orders for wave 4.
If I'm buying a Wave 4 Amiibo, Lucina would be my first choice.
I think I love Fire Emblem: Awakening too much.
I'm waiting for my Samus to ship.
Shulk's fetching a decent price on Amazon right now. Might snatch him when I get my summer job of mowing the neighbor's lawn for 10 dollars a week.

PSN ID: FateSeraph | Switch friendcode: SW-0145-8835-0610 Congratulations! She/TheySo apparently Marth is returning in April, that's when S.T.E.A.M comes out isn't it.

It actually comes out next Friday.
I hope it's not just Marth. What they should really do is release a wave consisting entirely of reprints. Just make it the hard to find figures like Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Marth, Captain Falcon, Pit, and Little Mac. Nintendo is really losing out by not capitalizing on the demand for the hard to find figures.

Not if Reggie really is the one selling all those overpriced amiibos on Ebay.
Samus seems to be getting harder to find lately. I'm kind of glad she was the first one I picked up back when they first released wave one.
