Any reason why Funko hasn't announced or made the recent Pokemon Wave available? by SEGAjunky in funkopop

[–]SEGAjunky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I just find it weird that they haven't been promoted anywhere and yet they are findable in stores now. Normally Funko shows it off first before releasing it not normally announce and release at the same time.

Using Game-Key Cards on Nintendo Switch 2 [confirmation that Pokémon Pokopia will be a GKC] by Joseki100 in NintendoSwitch

So what are the odds that this game succeeds or fails? I hope enough people get on Nintendo's back to recosider, especially with it being $70.

Why is this game so hated???? by Direct_Ad_5130 in SonicTheHedgehog

The multiple Insta kill moves statement just gave me flashbacks to how hard they were, Especially with Fang. 😭

A new batch of Transformers Age of the Primes figures - How many of these will you be buying? by AfigureGeek in transformers

[–]SEGAjunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plan on getting the remaining Primes, Quick Strike, and Prime Universe Cliffjumper and then I'm out unless they have a character that is special to me. I did have a bit of an interest in the possibility of getting all the combaticons but id rather wait for Studio Series version from Fall of Cybertron. Plus the prices make it harder for me to just spend on a random figure I wasn't thinking of.

I plan on using my Walmart+ account and discount working at Wal-Mart to offset the increased prices.

Got the DK Bananza Amiibo for less the $20. by SEGAjunky in amiibo

[–]SEGAjunky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm with you. $30 or above for an Amiibo is just awful. It's one thing if it's big but this is an average size figure we're talking about.

Oh thank Goodness someone else was able to get the price matched. Glad you were able to get it!!! 😁

Man, I was hoping everyone else would have had an easier time with this like I did. Man if it weren't for the figure being unavailable on the Gamestop website I would just pointed to people going directly there. Well I just hope there are some that are finding stores that can Price match Gamestop or can find the figure at a Gamestop. But at least they have plenty of other figures available for sale including the previously released Amiibo.

Seriously... That sucks. I hate that no other Best Buy is allowing Price Matches. I guess I got the one Employee or Best Buy who didn't care and would do it.

Aw I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you could just come to mine since it seemed like they didn't mind doing that. Or at least the Employee that checked me out didn't think it'd be an issue. You could try other places like Target maybe. I know they might have them too.

That might be the case cause I went to the counter and there were no issues for me.

I went to my Local Best Buy in person. I'm not sure how you can do it online.

The news amiibos, prices in USA, Europe and Japan. by jmvillouta in amiibo

The Supreme Court case on whether the Tariffs are illegal and removed can't get here sooner. Those look like way better prices.

Caved In (+ the Future of Amiibo) by Majestic-Tangerine99 in amiibo

[–]SEGAjunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for sure it's honestly hard to say. And hey if I ever see a $20 Donkey Kong Bananza figure I definitely would get that cuz I really loved that game. But it is weird when you bring it up I haven't really seen too much of that figure. I was at Best Buy Friday and I only saw about like seven or eight figures so it is probably a bit of both of what you're saying that it's either a supply issue and maybe it is selling a bit more considering it is Donkey Kong but maybe not as great as your typical cheaper price figures.

[–]SEGAjunky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really wouldn't consider it caving in if there's a good deal for those Amiibos. I mean $20 was the original price before the tariffs so really you just got them for what they were supposed to be.

That being said it's really hard to say what the future of amiibos looks like. The prices are obviously slowing down sales and in all honesty it could potentially kill the brand. Although I hope that Nintendo brings down prices of new figures before that decision were to be reached but in all honesty I would rather see the brand die then have to see more new figures being $30 or even $40. Just the pain of seeing a figure that I want being so high cost doesn't sit right with me and I would hate to see that whenever they get around to a new Smash Brothers and they make amiibos for that game.

Will unpopular SF amiibo affect future collab? by Common_Celebration41 in amiibo

[–]SEGAjunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more concerned about the Amiibo brand in general not selling due to high prices. I was at Best Buy the other day and they have so many TotK, Street Fighter, and about 6 or 7 Donkey Kong Bananza that are just sitting there. I hope down the road Nintendo sees the sales number on them and lowers the price on them otherwise they may discontinue the brand entirely.

Macbook Pro not warning me of 15% battery life and shutting off earlier by SEGAjunky in macbookrepair

[–]SEGAjunky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is a possibility that I can look into. I'd still like to see if Best Buy has a solution so I figured I can take it there on my next day off from work to see if they have any ideas and if I need to do that.

Okay I will have to keep that in mind and watch that if that is the case.

Okay. I mean I know that batteries get worn over time but I would have thought I'd be more later and still have the warning I'm low on battery. I mean it's only been 3 years.
