A leaked photo of a banner confirms that the upcoming Gold Mario amiibo is real and will be a Walmart-exclusive item. The special-edition figurine first appeared earlier this month, when Nintendo issued two certificates for Gold and Silver amiibo renditions of its mustachioed mascot. The company has yet to announce when the new amiibo will hit store shelves. However, the banner suggests it will be available alongside Mario Party 10, which launches on March 20th.
Gold Mario amiibo To Be Exclusive To Walmart
Walmart..better late than never to the amiibo party
Of COURSE my school used all their snow days plus one taking away the day off on the 20th I hope there are pre orders
Will the Gold and Silver Marip amiibo work with Smash or not?
*Mario*
No
Yes it will (see regular Mario for Mario Party 8), but only one game at a time.

Lol no it won’t, nintendo recently said it
Yes it will
Not according to the chart I linked above. It comes from Nintendo’s US website.
Maybe for the 3DS if updated for something to use it for.
Am I the only one really distrusting “leaks” after that Rayman incident?
^
The most logical thing to do is distrust all leaks no matter what until official word is confirmed…
I doubt this one is real. It looks very plain, like it was made by a kid.
This one looks legit. Rayman “leak” was obviously fake because of that Mewtwo pose being very different from the original and official artwork posted from his Direct reveal while the rest of the roster used the official artwork..every single one of them. Fake Mewtwo artwork pose was its dead giveaway.
That’s like WrestleMania for scalpers.
…You know, apart from the real WrestleMania and stuff.
Don’t have Walmart in my area, so I guess I will have to pass.
How the hell do you not have a Wal-Mart? Do you live on the ocean or some shit?
Yeah, its on the ocean, I live in NYC. There are no Walmarts at all here. Maybe Nintendo World store will get.
Wow! And I thought New York had everything.
Not even close. They only have a very few Target stores in the entire area. One in the Bronx, in Brooklyn and I think Staten Island somewhere.
There is a target in Manhattan and six in the burroughs… Go to NJ for WalMart… Not that far… Not to mention 9 Wal Marts on Long Island
Never been to Long Island and I have never seen a single Target store in Manhattan island. Where the hell is that one?
I think they opened a Target in Harlem recently. There is also two in Queens I know of, one in Flushing right across from the Bestbuy in that sorta mall. And then there is one down the street from the Queens mall in Rego Park.
New York is slow to get big box department stores, I don’t think Best Buy came around until 2004 or 05.
Yeah. I haven’t been in NYC for a few years.
Yeah, closest one is in Vally Stream which is like an hour and half drive. The MTA train system doesn’t run there. The other is in another State (NJ), so yeah not even close.
Target on the other hand is plentiful but constantly out of stock when it comes to gaming.
of course it was silly of us to think club nintendo was actually preparing anything for us gold and platinum members
Gold plated Mario and Platinum Games X Club Nintendo exclusive crossover game
that would be insane!, dare to dream yoshida, dare to dream!
Lol.
When has Gold ever gotten anything outside of the repetitive calendar?
lol true, I guess it was just wishful thinking.
I think alot of scalpers are getting stuck with their Amiibos. You look on Ebay and there are over 700 shulks for sale. And that number is going up, not down. Some people have stacks of Shulks in their pictures. Some of them are selling, but only for like 20-30 dollars, not the crazy 100 that some are asking. Most of them will not sale, and these scalpers are gonna be stuck with a bunch of Shulks, not to mention the other rare characters. Honestly there are just too many people trying to scalp Amiibos. It’s really ridiculous to be honest.
Good…
But they’re all Australian models…
that’s funny
Nah, I don’t believe this. Been burned on RUmOUrS too many items alr
lame
I don’t care how gold you make it, it’s still a Mario. And I don’t want Mario…
gold is not my color i’ll stick to my regular mario thx :)
Sweet.
So how will countries outside of America get it?
Here in Costa Rica stores are bringing Lucario and Shulk, even thought they were store exclusives in the USA.
Will it be massive gold?
I wonder if Nintendo will ship more than a few dozen this time…
This gold Mario amiibo should have been the one that came with the Mario Party 10 bundle. But if it is, I’ll have to cancel my bundle pre-order at Gamestop.
Amiibos cant track more than 1 game a time? Lame
Isn’t the data also stored in the Wii U anyway? It’s not like it’ll lose those data between games. The Amiibo itself won’t carry out more than one game data so they are stored in the console as a bank for shuffling data.
maybe they will start an annual paid service to store amiibo data like they do with your pokemons.
Umm no. Because they’re using the Wii U for that purpose already.
I hope it’s separate from the game because I’m not buying that shit just for that. No online or original MP2 gameplay = No buy and hope the franchise dies.
It died at MP9 for real…
I thought it did at 7 since it was boring as fuck.
I liked MP8 though enough to have fun…
Never played it but I bet it when they changed from dice movement to the bullshit cars set up..or was that MP9?
MP8 was the last real individual party mode game, the garbage started in MP9…
And the further they use that BS car ploy and no online, it’s more garbage.
It was dead after 3 lol didn’t even bother with them after that. 2 & 3 were the best in my opinion.
It was bad after 3 but DEAD after 8…
was there ever a Gould Mario in the Mario games I only remember silver Mario
New super mario bros 2. Probably the most forgetable side scrolling Mario game.
I picked it up for the first time, by the time I beat the first level I had 9 lives.
ill wait til theres an official announcement. too many fake rumors flying around.
Maybe Nintendo will finally make enough stock of this to meet the high demand?
Heh, who am I kidding…
#Awesomtacular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Must have shiny amiibo. O.O
