Silver Mario Amiibo hits stores on May 29th. Hits Ebay on May 30th

Ahh Amiibo's, those cute little figurines that you can use with various games on the Wii U. That is of course if you are able to find any of them. I have 7 of them, Mario, Peach, Link, Zelda, Sonic, Samus and Sheik. Of course Mario, Link, Zelda and such were easy to find. Go into any store and you will see shelves full of them.

Unfortunately, finding a Shiek or Sonic was a challenge to say the least. Unfortunately since Nintendo loves to short stock their stuff that people want, the scalpers come out and swoop everything up. I have a feeling this won't be any different. 

Nintendo has announced that a Silver Edition Mario Amiibo will be hitting store shelves on May 29th for $12.99. Just like the other Mario Amiibo's, the Silver Edition can be used on the following games

• Super Smash Brothers For Wii U
• Mario Kart 8
• Hyrule Warriors
• Mario Part 10
• Captain Toad Treasure Tracker 

I am going to assume that if you want one of these, like the Gold Mario Amiibo's, you are going to have to pre-order immediately. If history has told me anything, it's that pre-ordering Amiibo's doesn't even mean you'll get one as I have had Amiibo pre-orders cancelled on me before. But hey, at least there will be plenty willing to sell you one on Ebay for about quadruple the price! Sigh...
