Amiibo

Toys “R” Us will be running a slight deal on amiibo figures next week. If you buy three, you’ll be able to get them for $30.

amiibo figures will typically be priced at $12.99 (not sure why the ad above lists $13.99). So by taking advantage of the Toys “R” Us deal, you’ll save nearly $10.

The deals shown above will technically begin on November 16, and will last through November 22. But since amiibo isn’t launching until November 21, you’ll only have a couple of days to take advantage of the sale.

During the most recent Nintendo Direct, it was revealed that players will be able to unlock the Spinner weapon by using the Link amiibo. It turns out that another figure can provide players with the same weapon. By using the Toon Link amiibo, you can also unlock the Spinner weapon.

Pre-orders are now open for several of the most recently revealed amiibo. You can reserve Toon Link, Ike, King Dedede, Bowser, Mega Man, Sheik, and Sonic.

Lucario, Meta Knight, and Rosalina are currently missing, though they should be added in very soon. Also, as mentioned yesterday, Shulk is exclusive to GameStop.

Nintendo stated in a new video today that some amiibo figures in North America will be retailer-exclusive. It looks like we have our first example of that.

GameStop has now opened pre-orders for the Shulk amiibo, and the listing indicates that it’s exclusive. In other words, you won’t find this figure at other retailers. If you want Shulk, you’ll need to buy the figure at GameStop!

According to an IGN report, amiibo figures are not region locked. The site was able to register an American figure with a Japanese profile following yesterday’s Wii U firmware update. That’s certainly good news!
