12-22-14 CONFIRMED almost all Gamestops are getting Pit in today.  The 7 within "reasonable" driving distance of me all either have just enough to cover preorders or not even that many, no extras.  Call your local one and see whats up.

CONFIRMED TODAY, 12-17-2014, THAT MARTH, VILLAGER, WII FIT IN STOCK @ NINTENDO WORLD NYC.  This is a pretty good indicator that they will eb restocked nationwide once demand dies down imo.

I propose a centralize location for everyone to advertise/offer what extras they have for sale or trade in order to help out other members that are having a hard time locating these bad boys.  From the staggered releasing, to the non solid street dates, alot of us are coming up entirely empty handed.  If anyone wants to participate im sure it will not go unappreciated!

Great idea, James. I don't have any extras to trade, but there's a few I do want, namely the ones that are a pain to get a hold of right now. =\

Cool!
I'm sure nobody will give up their Marth but it's worth a try!

I am in Canada so if anyone could hook me up with the US only ones for retail + shipping that would be amazing!

which are US only?

I think Lucario and Rose Lina and Luma are US only. I could be wrong though.

pretty sure this is accurate.  Meta Knight and Shulk are both able to be preordered thru BBY Canada and Gemstop/EBGames Canada as well.

I cross the boarder last night and I only seen Zelda, and Little Mac(who was only available through preorder), same as in Canada. If america got anythang else early please post.

Most of the stores here got Mac, Zelda, and Diddy.  Some stores had 20+ of each, others had little to none.  Its all across the map over here at least in Northeast Ohio.

If anyone could help me with rosalina, lucario and luma aswell I would appreciate if very much!

My town which isnt huge but isnt small didnt get any macs at 2 gamestops and target. 1 gamestop got a couple. they are gone. best buy says the 19th. but wont tell me if they have it in stock to put out that day. They say they should. but with these Ill believe it when I see it. An hour of my time today got me diddy. already had zelda on buy 1 get one 40 percent off on toys r us last night.

rosalina isnt available to pre order quite yet. target exclusive

It would still be nice to find someone willing to help when it is available ahead of time, I could probably throw in a few extra dollars if req.

Nice idea! Should add Lucario, Shulk, Meta Knight and Rosalina on an "Exclusive" named page!

yeah i was just saying it wasnt quite possible yet. The lucario was on and off toys r us for preorder for a couple days. I dont think they are putting it back up. Havent made it available again for a couple days now.

Im taking it they will put it in stores aswell on release date? Or may offer it up again not sure.

Meta Knight is sold out/unavailable at Best Buy .ca, so that might now be US exclusive unless they add more (doubt it).

there is just so much uncertainty with these that you need to just get them for 12.99 when you can. I mean I dont know if they will restock them. Selling out of preorders . It probably is just a promotional thing for them. Dont know if they care if they have it afterword. Just drives sales of all their amiibos with the added web traffic. Nintendo is blaming retailers for not ordering enough, but Im not buying it.

After christmas season I assume there will be a reshipment of some of them. Probably not characters like Pit, but def they will get reshipments. My guess is luigi, zelda will along with first wave commons. Fringe characters I just dont know. Maybe 1 or 2 for demand. I dont think nintendo really had time to increase this second wave. Maybe they did a little causing the delays. I think the 3rd wave will be a little easier to get but the exclusives will be the tricky ones.

Well Meta Knight is on BBY canada site, but not available for pre order yet. And Shulk isn't on Ebgame website at all.. Only on gamestop.com, but we can preorder from that US site ( that we can't do for Lucario..)

I ordered metaknight on bbcanaca

Great idea, I was just thinking about the same thing earlier today. I plan on picking up some of the extra exclusives just to trade for some of the commons if I can.

yea Ive got 2 of each exclusive preordered at this time.

I'm looking for a Marth and a Villager still. I don't care about box condition or if they are opened.

if you dont care then Id just snag the Jap versions. Much cheaper.  Will be even more so after the holidays

I did and they are on there way. The only problem is that I don't know if the writing on he bottom is in English or not. I ordered a random one to compare them before I open Marth and Villager to see if it's English or not. If it isn't I'll be selling them for what I paid.
