Amiibo

Nintendo has launched the official hub for Mario Party 10 in Japan which features the following facts about the game:

Game requires 3.5GB of free space.
1 to 5 players.
1 save date per user, 35MB per save.
Miiverse integration, used in one puzzle apparently (might need someone to help translate that bit).
Playable with Wiimote and GamePad.
Compatible with amiibo ( Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Toad, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Rosalina, Wario), unlocking some special boards based on those characters.

You can check out the full site here. View some screenshots and footage below.

GameStop is taking orders for the Shulk amiibo once again. You can grab the figure right here. Hopefully this isn’t like yesterday when Shulk was in stock for all of two minutes! Note that the amiibo won’t ship until May, based on GameStop’s listing.

Over at Gamestop, you can now grab Mario Party 10 amiibo bundle with not only Mario but the rest of the Super Mario line of amiibo as well! It’s pricey, however. It’ll cost you $125.

Note that this isn’t to be confused with the standard Mario Party 10 bundle that only comes with the Mario amiibo.

You can check out the new bundle at Gamestop here.

Best Buy is now taking pre-orders for the Super Mario amiibo series. Toad, Luigi, Bowser, Peach, and Yoshi figures can be reserved here. There’s no telling how long they will be in stock for, sadly!

Update: The figures are going for the same price at GameStop.


Three amiibo from the Super Smash Bros. series are down to $10 each over at Best Buy. Those figures are Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Peach. I’m not sure how long this “sale” will last – perhaps until stock is depleted.

Shulk could end up as one of the rarest – if not the rarest amiibo. The fact that it’s GameStop-exclusive in the U.S. already means that the figure will be tough to find. And outside of pre-orders, it’s sounding like the retailer won’t have much stock.

Destructoid contacted 15 GameStop locations today and was told that they “only have the stock for pre-orders, and don’t know when any additional orders will come in.” That’s on top of a source who informed the site that there will be zero extra stock on-hand.

If you did reserve a Shulk amiibo, there is good news. Some consumers have received texts from GameStop informing them that he’ll be ready for pickup in-store starting tomorrow. Try checking with your local store in the morning if you haven’t heard anything yet!

A bunch of amiibo are currently in stock at GameStop. The lineup includes Toon Link, Sheik, Fox, and figures from the Super Mario series. You can find the full set here.
