The European Wii U eShop appears to have confirmed two new releases for January 8. First up is Chariot, which will be priced at €14.99. Underground is also expected on the same day for €19.99.
There were two very brief periods earlier this week when consumers could get online pre-orders in for the Rosalina & Luma amiibo over at Target. We didn’t mention that here since we assumed reservations would be available for a decent amount of time much like the Shulk, Meta Knight, and Lucario figures, which are exclusive to GameStop, Best Buy, and Toys “R” Us respectively. However, that’s apparently not the case.
Target’s PR team has provided the response below about the Rosalina pre-order situation:
“Rosalina Amiibo pre-orders were available on Target.com and based on guest demand, sold out quickly. Target stores and Target.com will begin to sell actual units on February 1, 2015.”
When asked if this means online pre-orders are finished for Rosalina, Target said: “That is correct”.
Curve Studios released a patch for Stealth Inc 2. It’s on the minor side of things, as the update simply addresses an issue with hats.
Curve Studios shared Stealth Inc 2’s patch news on Twitter earlier today:
We've just released a patch for Stealth 2 which fixes an issue with the hats. Go forth and don or un-don whatever headwear you wish!

Last night, Toys “R” Us went on an amiibo cancelling binge. I would know, as I received three such notices for Lucario, Pit, and Captain Falcon.
Strangely enough, several amiibo are now back in stock and are available for pre-order again – namely Lucario, Ike, and King Dedede. Hopefully Toys “R” Us doesn’t pull any additional stunts!
