Yesterday, we mentioned that Amazon was offering $10 savings on Super Mario Maker for those who have a Prime subscription. The retailer also has a $7 discount on Splatoon for such members.

Fry’s has a discount on Splatoon as well. It’s $54.95 on the retailer’s website, but if you have a promo code, it’ll be brought down another $10. It seems you need to be on Fry’s mailing list for the $10 code.

Super Mario Maker hasn’t been released yet, but if you have an Amazon Prime subscription, savings are already available. These customers can take $10 off the game immediately.

Just add Super Mario Maker to your cart on the product page here. At the final checkout page, you should see $10 come off assuming you’re an Amazon Prime member. This offer should also be extended to all existing Prime member pre-orders as well.

Amazon previously said that it expects to have “ample” quantities of the Palutena amiibo, though it’s still expected to sell out. You should be able to purchase one so long as you’re on the site when it becomes available in about an hour.

Amazon has shared more information about the upcoming release of the Palutena amiibo, which is exclusive to the retailer in the United States.

Consumers can begin placing orders for Palutena at 5 PM ET / 2 PM PT this Friday. There will be a limit of 1-per customer. Additionally, 1-Click Ordering will be disabled.

Amazon says it will “have ample quantities of this amiibo”. However, the figure is still expected to sell out due to “very high” demand.

Head past the break to read up on Amazon’s full email that was just sent out to customers. We’ll have another reminder on Friday, but you’ll want to keep track of this page.

A short while ago, Amazon announced that it will be the exclusive retailer to be offering the Palutena amiibo in both the U.S. and Canada. A representative for the site has since shared some additional information about what to expect.

The rep stated:

A few things to keep in mind, that we learned before wave 4:

1) We want to avoid resellers as much as possible, so she’ll be limited to 1 per customer.
2) We’re going to let everyone know when she’ll go on sale ahead of time.
3) That time will be during “normal business hours” (No 2:30am releases).
4) We learned from wave 4 that the time “windows” aren’t much different from just announcing a time, so I think that’s what we’ll be doing.

Also, we have a lot more stock than we’ve had of any other amiibo yet. I know we’ll end up selling out, but I think it’ll be closer to the Splatoon 3-pack or Charizard or something rather than Lucina/Robin in terms of how long they’re available (~15 mins after available). If you show up on time, you should be able to get one.

The same rep added, “I know that there’s a lot of concern, but these are not going to disappear instantly like Lucina/Robin. I’m confident that if you show up when they go on sale, you should be able to get one.”

Amazon will be selling the Palutena amiibo on July 24. More specifics are due on July 22.
