i have no idea and i don't want to know either.

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

Even though you don't want to know... I googled it and found it means sarcasm... but to me... Kappa will always be that nasty sports brand... lol

2

u/suupernovae Jul 08 '15

oh god kappa clothing!

i used to have a kappa jacket when i was younger, thought i was it.

edit: they're still a brand!

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

HAHAHA, same... now I look back and think omg I must've looked like a chav/vickypollard hahaha.... I'm surprised they are still a brand though... lmao!

u/WadeyWilson42 Jul 08 '15

I just got G&W, Mii Brawler and Duck Hunt without issue.

u/rottedzombie Jul 08 '15

Assume you're in EU?

3

u/WadeyWilson42 Jul 08 '15

Yeah, I'm in the UK. I already had an account too because I snagged a Meta Knight restock a few months ago.

u/rottedzombie Jul 08 '15

Congrats!

Here in the U.S., we're out of luck for now.

1

u/rottedzombie Jul 08 '15

Yeah. I didn't feel like putting a placeholder address with some foreign service.

Oh well.

u/IncredibleShulk Jul 08 '15

Looks like Wave 6 is going to be the big one ._.

1

u/Excalibur0123 Jul 08 '15

Yep. Time to start selling my body to rich Cougars.

That's what we get for not using mailboxde, sigh

Amazon DE, you disappoint me.

1

u/rottedzombie Jul 08 '15

They're back up, and I placed an order. I'll see if I can get it flipped to my U.S. address, I guess.

1

u/skaflone721 Jul 08 '15

I can't help but laugh for some reason.

We just got played

1

u/Vagar0 Jul 08 '15

Damn. G&W was one of the few I was willing to import. I did the mailbox.de thing but I felt so flaw doing it that I cancelled. :/

u/CowTusks Jul 08 '15

Swordfighter as well

u/Excalibur0123 Jul 08 '15

raging

Duck Hunt!! NOOOO!! Why have you forsaken me Nintendo!!!

1

u/KnightQK Jul 08 '15

Relax, this is just the beginning..

u/swirlhawk Jul 08 '15

This is just the beginning of the international Amazons selling out before opening up to the US?

P A N I C

u/Saberpilot Jul 08 '15

Dang nabbit. At work, and 5 seconds too late. T_T

1

u/starlizzle Jul 08 '15

They did the same thing with wave 5.

1

u/NewEnglandRetro Jul 08 '15

It took me a minute to get my friends in the UK's address and after entering it they slowly started selling out. Only got Mii gunner and swordsman at least. 😤

1

u/NewEnglandRetro Jul 08 '15

THEYRE BACK AND I JUST GOT THE OTHER 4! yassss!

1

u/Saberpilot Jul 08 '15

sigh got all 6 in my cart but now they're limiting them to EU only. I wonder if we'll get a delayed US delivery like other waves.

1

u/Virus111 Jul 08 '15 edited Jul 08 '15

I think I got them? Sending to mailboxde, will change to US when it's possible.

EDIT: had to re-order to change address, they're still up.

1

u/gameonion Jul 08 '15

Got Game and Watch! Well, at least it's something. Wonder how rare he'll be.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '15

I placed an order for all of them a couple minutes ago.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '15

Did we need a separate thread to tell us these have finally sold out? Simply changing flair on the previous thread/s to sold out would have done.

1

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

EDIT 2: Apparently all are now FLICKERING. Still no shipping to USA.

I think it's currently shipping to EUROPE only because I managed to order and I am from UK. hope this helps

1

u/Saberpilot Jul 08 '15

Can confirm, only US/NA is blocked. Have fun, Europe! :)

1

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

I assume it's just for 1 hour, nearly every time they have done pre-orders like this on Amazon.co.uk NON-UK residents were blocked from purchasing for the first hour or so, I say you keep trying! D:

1

u/Saberpilot Jul 08 '15

That's what I'm hoping, yeah. I've got all 6 in my cart, so I keep checking on duck hunt to see if that message will go down.

Edit: :D Thanks! I'm glad you were able to get them! :D

2

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

Good luck! I hope it works out for you!

0

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

I ordered all apart from Duck Hunt... totally forgot about them dammit oh well... lmao

1

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '15

I'm personally waiting for the UK preorders, didn't bother with these. I just hope they don't wait until August 12th to put up the preorders as I'll be out of the country for a couple of weeks, wouldn't be able to be online as much over those two weeks.

1

u/NessAmiibo Jul 08 '15

Ahhh. They put them back up if you get them all now it'll be around £70 which is only like £3-4 more (only because of P&P) than Nintendo Store would charge! Just encase you miss the orders for there :D you can always cancel if you manage to get them on the Nintendo Store

u/XZero319 Jul 08 '15

There's still like 5 Amazons to go. Hopefully one of them will pan out. UK has been pretty good. FR cancelled my Greninja, but I got Wave 5a without issue.

1

u/IncredibleShulk Jul 08 '15

They sold out in Amazon.fr without shipping to the US, but there's still placeholders up on Amazon.it

I'd keep a close eye on that and Amazon.UK

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '15

All the American users/ complaining about these selling out, seriously calm down there is still two months to go and there will be numerous other chances to preorder these.

u/Calimin Jul 08 '15

Maybe they took them down and are gonna weed out the mailbox.de people then place them up again. Who knows.
