Exactly. People are actually spending $400+ just to play the new Zelda game? OT ballers invading the Gaming Board.

I'm just looking for Amiibos. Really want the Twilight Bow but not paying $45 bucks for Smash Bros Zelda.


Same here. I've been lucky and caught the bokoblin, archer Link, and horse rider Link when they were on sale last week on amazon. Also found an 8 bit Link at gamestop in the mall marked down this past weekend.

Guardian amiibo and smash bros gannondorf is on way via amazon (both discounted).

But refuse to pay 40-70 bucks for the older ones or the Zelda BotW amiibo.

With 8bit Link I got the Tunic of the Hero a couple of days ago.

I bought a Ps4 solely to play MLB the Show. This wouldn't be the first time.

I already had Smash Link, so lucked out with Epona and Twilight Tunic. Bought Archer Link on launch day where I should have purchased all 3 Zeldas.

Right now I stand with:

Archer Link BotW
Zelda BotW (bought on eBay for $30)
Zelda Smash (bought on eBay for $37)
Link Smash
Wolf Link (bought at GameStop Monday)

All I want to purchase now are Toon Link and Zelda.

What is crazier are the Amiibos stayed on the shelves for a few days after launch. It had some lag time for the norms like us to find out how valuable they are in game.

The Guardian I'm looking forward to because it supposedly drops guardian weapons. Gannondorf has possible drop of Sword of the Six Sages.

Sword of the Six Sages is the shite as well, my favorite I have gotten so far.

my understanding is that the other amiibo will also work and just drop random supplies. Though I could see Nintendo integrating some special weapons, bows, shields, or clothes in the game via specific amiibos. I mean they have the switch shirt if you get the expansion pass.

I only use the ancient bow for now. I went after star fragments with my zeldas first before the Twilight Bow.

Might buy a Guardian today. It is by far the coolest looking one.

Edt: I don't watch iJustine but came across a pretty cool video last night where she basically scans nearly every Amiibo into Zelda.

Yes. Went thru 2 already. I love because it shoots perfectly straight. Once I finish with my Star Fragment drops from Amiibos then its time to get the Twilight Bow.

Ancient Bow has a range of 40.
Falcon Bow has a range of 40.

There is another bow which not going to spoil in this thread but its range is 100.

Twilight Bow has a range of 8,000.

Seriously. I'm already having to exert some serious self control not venturing in there and this ain't helping

Gonna try Target again in the morning and possibly Walmart on the way home. They've gotta get one or two in at some point.

that's what they keep doing to me too, I finally told the guy after asking me for the 20th time on Sunday that I'll buy the bundle if he sucks my dick.

He hasn't asked since and I've been going in daily.
Man that guy is just doing his job. He doesn't make the bundles they try to sell and he has to ask everyone that comes through the door. There was no reason to be a douche to him.

Gamestop needs to change their policy. It gets old them always try to sell you stuff. If I want to preorder a game I'll ask. That's the reason I know longer go there.

No luck at Target this morning. I've been seeing the controllers in stock pretty regularly.

I mean, it's a sales job. It's their job to try and get your money. Do you get mad at car salesmen when they try to sell you all the bells and whistles on a car? You might not know everything they have to offer you. That's why they tell you.

I'll use amazon and have it delivered to my house. Harder to do that with a car.

If I'm buying a car I already did my research and know exactly what I want.
