Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
Between March 29 and April 4, Target will be holding a buy 1, get 1 50% off sale. This will apply to all games sold by the retailer.
Although it’s not quite as significant, a separate buy one, get 1 free sale will kick off at Target on March 15. It’s for non-planogram games – essentially clearance titles.
If you need further details about either sale, check out the image above.
Update: Gone – Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL in stock at Target
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 13 Comments
Update 2: Cancellation emails are going out. Affected consumers are receiving a $15 gift card.
Update: Finally out of stock. Given how long it was up for, cancellations could be on the way.
This probably isn’t going to last very long at all, but Target has the Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL units in stock. You can place an order here. You’ll probably need to be quick with this one!
Thanks to Ben for the tip.

Rumor – Target location may be selling The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask early
Posted on 9 years ago by Kirara Koneko(@KiraraKoneko) in 3DS, Images, News, Rumors | 3 Comments
It would appear that there has been a recent sighting of an unnamed Target location with copies of The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask displayed for sale.
No word on whether or not the copies were actually available to purchase or if they were simply being displayed.
With pictures to prove the validity of the sighting, it is hard to deny the possibility that some lucky Target shoppers at that location will be getting an extra special treat!
Rosalina product page gone from Target’s website
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
Well, this is certainly disconcerting! The official product page for the Rosalina amiibo appears to have been removed from Target’s website. That doesn’t bode well for the figure’s future at the retailer…
Update: Confirmed – Target apparently not restocking Rosalina amiibo, won’t have some wave 3 figures in store
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 14 Comments
Update (2/2) Destructoid appears to have confirmed this news. Check out the following:
A Target employee has confirmed the authenticity of this document, an internal newsletter called “The Vibe in Electronics.” They state that running out of stock and not getting more shipments for a Target exclusive item is common. They also cement the fact that Sheik may be rare as there haven’t been many shipments coming in at all, but Toon Link is in fact common.
If you’re living in the U.S. and have interest in the Rosalina amiibo, you may want to try finding product sooner rather than later. An internal memo from Target indicates that the figure will not be restocked. As many of you know, Target is the only retailer selling the Rosalina amiibo in the United States.
There are some other interesting points from the memo as well. For instance, Target will apparently not stock the Mega Man, Sonic, King Dedede, and Ike amiibo in store. Consumers will instead be directed to order from the retailer’s website.
Update: Or not – Target now says Rosalina & Luma amiibo pre-orders will return this month

Update: I’m not sure what’s going on with Target, but now it’s looking like pre-orders won’t be returning after all…
@90pll Thanks for asking! The Rosalina and Luma Amiibo will be a Target exclusive. We aren't offering pre-orders on this item.

@90pll The Nintendo Amiibo Rosalina & Luma will be available in our Target Canada stores. But no preorder and quantities will be limited.
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) January 3, 2015
@Jervaaay Thanks for your interest! We aren't currently taking pre-orders and don't have specifics right now on future availability.
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) January 3, 2015
Target opened pre-orders for the Rosalina & Luma amiibo during two extremely brief periods last month. The retailer later said that online reservations were closed and consumers would need to head towards their local stores in hopes of nabbing a figure.
Now we’re hearing something that contradicts this a bit. The official “AskTarget” has indicated that Rosalina & Luma amiibo pre-orders will return sometime this month before it goes on sale in February. Fans are advised to continue checking the website.
@Jervaaay Yes the Rosalina & Luma amiibo Figure will be available for pre-order sometime this month! Keep checking back! Thank you!

Rumor: Samus, Fox amiibo discontinued at Target stores
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 4 Comments
Although we don’t have official confirmation, it’s looking like the Samus and Fox amiibo could be phased out at Target stores. Employee Zach “iamxZ3R0” Collins shared the photo above on Facebook, which indicates that the Fox figure is no longer available. Zach has also apparently confirmed that Samus is showing as discontinued as well.
Target apparently not taking anymore pre-orders for Rosalina & Luma amiibo
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 10 Comments
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”.
