You just need to have it marked as previously purchased in your Wii U's Wii Mode. It doesn't matter if it's downloaded, but it has to be in Wii Mode; Your Wii U won't see anything from your Wii before you transfer.
So you're saying there's no way for the Wii U to know I have it without a transfer? Or would just accessing the store in Wii mode do it?
-
Anyone manage to get to Gamestop.com? It's down atm, but I want to know if you can preorder wave 4.
-
It's down and the new Amiibos were never up. Even their in-store system crashed and apparently is now working veeeeeery sloooooowly. My hopes of getting anything ordered (I want Ness) are super low. I'm accepting at this point that I'll be buying him for $30+ on Amazon.

Darn it, I thought I'd be ready this time….>_>
Ness is gonna be VERY hard to get, not just because of the exclusivity. He's a popular character with very little merchandise to begin with!
….oh snap, Lucas amiibo....is going to be a nightmare to get.

Looks like Jigglypuff is exclusive to Target and Greninja is exclusive to Toys R Us

Toys R Us is still a relevant store for gaming? What century is this?

That makes Two Ness preorders for me actually lol. Dunno if I should cancel the other or not.

Hmm…on one hand, it's multiple preorders that made getting the likes of Rosalina, Ike, Meta Knight, Shulk....pretty much impossible.
On the other hand, this is Gamestop, and they almost screwed you over getting Smash Wii U right? Can't be too cautious. I myself always show receipts and ask clearly what the release dates are to avoid problems.

One is from Gamestop, one is from MightyApe.au. But yeah, you're right. I don't have to make a decision right away either. If Ness ends up being Unicorn Rare, it might be a good idea to have an extra to sell.

Seems Gamestop have a Amiibo overload..only Preorder in stores
https://www.facebook.com/GameStop/posts/1010806118939314What One caused the problems?
-
All of them? They're probably all sold out now. They never listed any of them online. By the time they do there will probably be nothing left.
-
Apparently, Ness and Pac-Man are still in stock as of 10 minutes ago.
Everyone else is sold out lol.

Well if they would put them on the goddamn website already…
-
I got none, since I only wanted to get Lucina.
-
-
FYI: According to the people in store, Gamestop has different allocated stock for In-Store Orders Vs. Online Orders.
This means when they go on preorder on the actual website, they may have more stock of everyone.

I'm on Gamestop.com now. No results for any wave 4 amiibo.
-
-
Amazon has a listing for Robin and Lucina but they're like ~$40 already. The hell.
EDIT: wait….what? That's not right.

That bozo again?:getlost:

I'm hitting refresh every so often….I'm just afraid the preorders will be up the minute I go to sleep. Six hours later, everything's cleaned out.

I know, what you mean. I mean I just wanted one amiibo this wave.

This Kirby Gourmet Race theme is awesome :wub:

I have a couple n64 games on my Wii, can I transfer them to Wii U without doing an entire system transfer?
Nope, it's everything or nothing.

So you're saying there's no way for the Wii U to know I have it without a transfer? Or would just accessing the store in Wii mode do it?
If you transfer the Wii to the Wii U, it will see your entire purchase history from your prior Wii. If you don't, it won't.

It's a side effect of Nintendo locking system purchases to systems rather than an account, unfortunately.
-
I managed to get the six-pack at GameStop when it became obvious the servers were down and getting just Robin, Lucina, and Ness would be far more work than scanning the single SKU 6-pack.
-
Well I finally got to watch the direct. The new Fire Emblem looks really cool I love the eastern style of all the characters and weapons. Also finally there's feet! But if you really need to buy DLC to get the other half of the game then fuck them! The SMTxFire Emblem looks hilarious, they couldn't get their hands on Persona so they made their own. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of it though. Splatoon really reminds me of a game a played a lot as a kid called Animaniacs splatball, except Splatoon actually looks like it will be good. The rest was all just amiibo shit that my eyes just glazed over.
-
In the uk i can't find anything about the new amiibos. I remember when the last wave appeared but no where had it for pre-order. And then when wave 3 came out no where was selling it either. I'm going to japan this year and my brother is there when lucian and ness come out so might ask him to get me them. Anyone know how much amiibos are in yen?
-
My best friend got me "Story of seasons" as an early birthday gift and I'm totally in love with it. IMO, it's much more of a Harvest Moon than "Lost Valley" will ever be… Which actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it, with the problems between Marvelous and Natsume... Anyways... If you are a fan of Harverst Moon, especially "New beggining", "Story of seasons" is a must-get even if it doesn't have "Harvest Moon" in the title.
-

But Persona is essentially a branch of SMT…? Unless that's the joke

I feel like there's still misinformation going around. Like that one article says they hope people who persevered with the GameStop website managed to get their orders in. But the website never even had listings up. Not even for a minute. So yeah.
-
Well, at least I didn't miss out because of sleep.
…not that it matters lol

You know you'll still buy it:ninja:.
they couldn't get their hands on Persona
Persona Q may have Etrian Odyssey's gameplay mechanics but I believe it would still count as a Persona game on a Nintendo made device.
I've often wondered about that myself; seems like being supported by people who only want you there so the world can end in fire (with you going to Hell in the process) would be somewhat off-putting

I said it in the smash brian thread but Nintendo have stated that only nintendo characters will be considered. All other votes will be void.

Ive seen this said a bit, but where have they said that though? At most ive only seen people take the NOA's facebook update saying vote for your favorite "nintendo character" as a definitive answer or something. If they didnt want people to flood them with everything else they could have stated that much on the website or anywhere explicitly so they could stop an influx of characters they were never going to consider (not that it would stop them all, but it could curve expectations)

The trailer just felt so goofy and Persona-esque. Like if this was what was shown as the Persona 5 trailer I don't think I would have batted an eyelid. I'm sure it will be very different but the trailer just didn't feel distinctly SMT or Fire Emblem-esque and gave off a very Persona vibe to me.
You know you'll still buy it:ninja:.
I know I'll buy it which is why i'm so mad!

Oh yeah, same here. It's just the technicality I'm pointing out that Persona is still under the SMT umbrella of games lol

Maybe i jumped the gun a little bit. I saw it being said around smash boards and twitter but now that i look i can't even find the facebook update you are talking about. Never mind (although tbh i imagine will only be nintendo characters unless a third party offers).

What IS the difference between Persona and SMT? IIRC Atlus makes both, and they both involve anime-esque settings with high school students and demons/spirits?

Too much high schooler/waifu simulator (Persona) and not enough destroyed post apocalyptic japan with demons and moral choices (SMT).
I know I'll buy it which is why i'm so mad!

SMT most of the time gives the player a Order, Chaos and Neutral paths. It also featured Dante from Devil May Cry.

Looks like Toysrus are doing pre-orders again for greninja on April 27th, saw it on ign website so not sure if this is true or not.

Yeah. It's just really striking how we haven't seen any devil summoning. At least it kinda looks like they're iterating the fire emblem characters in but the semblance to smt is kinda not there?
We'll see anyway
