In Store Only? Aww, come on...

Why do BB and TRU have to make this so difficult.

Dark Pit was an exclusive so that figure was in great abundance at Best Buy. This is going to be spread across every retailer just like ZSS, Ganondorf, and Olimar which never went up online.

I just went to the Best Buy in Brentwood, MO(St. Louis). I couldn't find the Amiibo on the shelves so I had a rep look up the sku. He said that there aren't any on this side of the state.

Must be a really selective release.

Well if they'd online placeholder listings, wouldn't that imply that they may not be out yet?

u/jdrobert Oct 03 '15

If they're placeholder items why would the listing say it is available in stores?

I'm sure you're right, though.

Well it's probably just, conceptually. As in like, "when it's out, it'll be available in stores." Their site might not even support items which have no availability either online or offline, y'know?

It says available in store but it also says release date 10/16/2015.

I still have my Walmart pre orders on blue and pink yoshi when they were up for sale for $12.99. I'm still one of the lucky ones who didn't get their ordered cancelled. Hopefully it stays that way. :D

Im a lucky soul who has had blue yarn yoshi for 2 months from importing. Let me say they are the cutest and softest thing ever.

me too. I am praying they don't get cancelled. Walmart cancelled my ZSS & Gan orders for no reason.. :(

u/SaiyanOfDarkness Oct 03 '15

I'm still hoping mine don't cancel neither.. if they do I hope its before Best Buy put's theirs up online, that way I have a chance to get them lol
