    I was in Argos, all 3 Gamestop and Smyths in Dublin. Some fella just walked out the shop with the last Shulk :(((

    Oh no, where did that happen? I got Dedede and Meta Knight in GS Henry St but all their Shulks were already pre-ordered.

    Argos always seem late to get them, might be worth watching over the weekend and Monday

    Hey guys ! I just signed up to write in this post. Today I could get dedede and meta (gamestop henry)but I didn't see any sonic or megaman ! Where did you see plenty of them? I went at 10-15 am this morning. In Smyths there is nothing about the new wave, and in Argos is the same, nothin on the website or in the computers inside the stores. I will go later to gamestop inside st stephen sc but I don't believe they still have any sonic or megaman. Anyway If one of you want to exchange sonic and megaman (also Estela or Litle Mac) for my dedede and meta we can make it !

    All Gamestops and Smyths had plenty this morning at 9:30 (except Shulk). Argos had nothing, sorry about the confusion.

    The Shulk was liffey street, just as I walked in someone just received the last one :( . The cashier was really sorry for me haha.

    I assume Sonic etc are probably already mostly gone by now.

    It's 5 euro per amiibo and you have to pay at the moment. I pre-ordered pac-man for the next wave in GS henry st.

    Guy told me he only got 4 Sonic and 4 Mega Man in Jervis so I think only GS got Shulk for pre-orders. It seems Pre-ordering is the best way to go about it, fed up looking in the shops and refreshing argos for them, wouldn't have this problem if Nintendo would sort it out and have more made. I don't want the card versions :/

    Too soon! :)

    I'm happy to help fellow boardsies out if I happen to come across any rare ones in future. I assume Shulk, Rosalina, Little Mac, Marth, Villager, WFT are the most wanted?

    Little Mac is the main one I'd like but I've given up on that. The stock issues can be very frustrating. I hope Nintendo use their sell-through table to decide who gets reprinted for each region.

    Gamestop website says they are all in stock in the city centre. It's either not updated yet or it doesn't account for reserved ones.

    I mean when people phone and ask for them to be held. Henry St had a Captain Falcon for ages, showing up in stock on the site and I could see it behind the counter, but they wouldnt sell it to me because someone had rang and asked them to keep it aside for them :/

    Yeah, go to the page for the Amiibo you want on Gamestop.ie,scroll down to the bottom, and click Open Map

    It shows every Gamestop in the country, colour coded by stock level for that particular item !

    I don't have Shulk but I'd be willing to take Meta Knight off your hands if you're in Dublin?
