    Gold Mario is from New Super Mario Bros and Silver Mario is Metal Mario I guess, these are legit, bullsh!tingly legit but legit. I'll now wait for my Silver Luigi, Pink Gold Peach and Metal Wario....all legit characters

    I say they are real but I have a feeling that they may be Club Nintendo rewards.

    Or prizes for a Smash Bros competition.

    There are worldwide shortages of rare Amiibos.. Let's make just different types of Mario instead, that's what people want!

    I hope not tbh, tho I don't have much interest in them. Club Nintendo American seems like it wont be anyway I think they got their final rewards last weekend, tons of games.

    Surely in this case they'd be Mario Gold and Mario Platinum though?

    I'm guessing they'll be given out with a game, maybe packaged with the peripheral for the 3DS

    Kilkenny for me


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Wolverine359


    Galway for me. I reserved it last Friday I think, for some reason that option disappeared a few days later, but worth checking anyway.

    Yep. The week after that wave came out.

    dam no one have them for sale only place is ebay at like 60e.

    I'm baffled at the inconsistency of stock levels across Argos stores. How can some stores have stock and others (Ilac centre) have none?

    I think they were just taking people's reservations and only ordered in those ones, they might be available to order for collection again, but it does seem random. Maybe tomorrow they'll be available to order, Friday could be the day for doing that? Can't say for sure but check the site daily and see if they come up as "can be ordered for collection" in orange text.


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭souleater3000


    Yeah it seems the best option is to just check the sites to find out if they are in stock or can be ordered in. Shame that its like this tho.

    Not true. I reserved mine in Childers Road and they never got her in.

  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭johnf26


    if your planning on getting any from the next wave best to pre order them...went into game stop and was told there only getting in the pre orders id say a slight lie but i pre ordered just incase


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,066 ✭✭✭elekid


    You're right, the main one I want is Wario so I preordered him from game.co.uk

    It's crazy having to pre-order months in advance for stuff like this
