Is that Link Amiibo see-through or not there at all?

To me it looks like the joke's that someone is selling an empty box for an exorbitant amount.

If you look really, really closely, you can see that...

There is nothing in that box, Numbah. ;p

But if it really was a ghost Link, then it would probably sell for even more.

In America, there's a common practice where people will buy a toy, remove the toy, replace it with an older or defective toy, then send it to the store to get a refund. This is most common in America, where stores give too much of the benefit of the doubt to consumers.

Or, they will buy huge quantities of a toy, then sell them online at inflated prices, as they are scarce enough for people to pay so much. This is a form of scalping.

[up]Huh, that may explain why, when I worked seasonal at Toys R Us, I saw on occasion some random Asian guy with a cart practically FULL of one type of thing, like Disney Infinity figures for one.

One of those arms is backwards, which makes it look even goofier. [lol]

So is this a good thing or a bad thing that these amiibos are coming out "defective"?

Went to an anime-con with my sister today and there just happened to be Nintendo room with Smash U to play. I ended up winning all 4 matches I played there. It's kinda funny because I think I was one of the youngest people there, in fact I think most of the other players were a lot older than me.

All glory to the ninja frog.

You and Greninja are seriously kindred spirits. tongue And to think that you considered quitting due to slightly losing interest in the game after some of Greninja's characteristics were patched.

I wonder who you'd main if it weren't in the game (a question I've been asking myself, except it's in regards to Mega Man).

Process of elimination dictates that my main if Greninja wasn't around would likely be Samus, considering she's my secondary.

[up][up]For some reason I kept thinking Falco was your second.

And I need to fight people again. I've been spending all of my time playing Smash Mode by my lonesome so I can clear the 50 hour Challenge and I'm sure I'm regaining some bad habits because of it...

I'm always up for some battles, be it 3DS or Wii U.

And Falco is a character that I really want to be good with, but am not having much success with. Samus just kinda came naturally for me, as did Greninja.

I've been using Greninja a lot lately, and that's in large part thanks to you. I'd like to fight you again sometime. I've been playing a lot of online matches lately, but not so many with Friends.

I guess I've been converting people to the Greninja side of the force tongue

A shame no anime-cons here in Brazil sell any Greninja merchandise though. I really want to get a plush of it.

Well, if it was secretly Nintendo's plan to have their employees deliberately make these so that people will pay exorbitant prices for them from an employee incognito, it would certainly be profitable.

It sounds weird but my friend told me earlier about suspiciously cheap bulks of outdated smartphones being sold on Amazon or something right before the release of the manufacturer's new one or something so I wouldn't put it past them.

Holy crap I managed to get 19 turns in Crazy Orders, not only that but I finished the last regular match with 8 seconds left and defeated the hands with 10 HP remaining.

This was the most intense thing I've done in single player so far. My heart's pounding because I've been trying to get far in it all day.

I have trouble getting the 12 turns with anyone but my super defensive Ganondorf.

...Has anyone here gotten the 20 turns with Mario? That one looks impossible.

I got to 18 before a Bob-Omb spawned right as I forward-smashed, so, I got close.

The furthest I've ever gotten is 15 turns with my Defensedorf. Even with his attacks it never really works. And he's the first one of mine who beat Master Fortress.

Now I have beaten him with some characters, but back then he was my best guy. Maybe I should consider using Ganondorf as my main and Greninja as a second...

Deleting my profanity-laced rant. I had a super, super-laggy match (like, 30 miliseconds on the timer to 1 minute on our clock laggy), disconnected from it, and got banned for 10 minutes for my trouble. Not pleased there.
