Best Buy has now opened pre-orders for the wave 4 amiibo. You can find links to each below.

Lucina
Robin
Wario
Pac-Man
Charizard

Note that Greninja will be exclusive to Toys “R” Us, Ness is a GameStop exclusive, and Jigglypuff is a Target exclusive, so they can’t be reserved at Best Buy.

Level-5 has announced that its upcoming “Vision” press conference will be getting a live stream on Ustream.

Several new titles are expected to be shown at Level-5 Vision 2015, many of which will be on 3DS. The company will be revealing Yo-Kai Watch 3, Fantasy Life 2, Layton 7, and a new large-scale cross-media project. There will additionally be “announcements of big developments beyond games”.

Level-5 Vision 2015 will kick off on April 7 at 5 AM ET / 2 AM PT. It’s expected to last about 90 minutes.

It’s official: the Greninja amiibo will be a Toys “R” Us exclusive in North America. This has been confirmed via an official statement from the retailer (see above). Pre-orders for Greninja will open tomorrow.

Everything we’ve been hearing about the Greninja amiibo thus far has indicated that the figure will be exclusive to Toys “R” Us. That would certainly make sense given that Lucario was also exclusive to the retailer. When we receive an official confirmation, we’ll be sure to let you know.
