The amiibo board over on Reddit has received word that GameStop will not be taking pre-orders for a number of figures launching on September 11 in the United States. Supposedly, there are no plans to take reservations for Ganondorf, Zero Suit Samus, Olimar, and 8-Bit Classic Mario. This information comes from a memo distributed “to certain tiers of GameStop management.”

While there won’t be any pre-orders, we’re hearing that a limited amount of each figures will be offered through GameStop’s website. Also, allocation sent to each store will depend on previous amiibo sales.

Here’s what the stock numbers look like for one store (will vary by each location):

Ganondorf ~10
Zero Suit Samus 116904 ~13
Olimar ~12
8-Bit Classic Mario ~10

Nintendo and EMP Museum are teaming up for a special indie event next week. Gaming fans in the Seattle area can attend “Nindies@Night” – a celebration of recently released and upcoming indie games for Wii U and 3DS – on August 27 starting at 8 PM.

A total of 19 indie titles will be playable at Nindies@Night, and many of their creators will be available to answer questions and speak about development experience. Also planned are multiplayer competitions for select games, with finalists taking their skills to the giant 60-foot HD LED screen featured in the EMP Sky Church. Nintendo’s Damon Baker will also hold a presentation in the Sky Church at 9 PM.

Admission to Nindies@Night is free and on a first-come, first-served basis. Those who can’t make it may want to check out Nintendo’s “Nindies” lounge during PAX between August 28 and August 31 in the Sheraton Seattle Hotel. This will also feature several playable Wii U and 3DS indie games with developers in attendance from 12 PM to 8 PM between August 28 and August 30 and 12 PM to 6 PM on August 31.
