>literally lucky charms
Have fun losing money dumbass

Gives you 50% off Mama Peach's homemade milk carton.

Sorry user, there's no more cereal left but you can still have the box for $10!!

nintendies are fucking fanatical

...

Still not as bad as sonygroes at least

>nutritious
LMAO

they are literally much worse actually

Is there actually any risk to scalping?

At my local supermarket (tesco) you can take back stuff and get a refund no questions asked.

No. You can just keep the receipt and there's 0 risk.

>reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Nah I generally prefer Nintendo but Nintendo fans are fucking insane and massively autistic. Sony fans are just mildly annoying by comparison.

I have not seen anything like this for a sony character.
Nintendo is by FAR the worst when it comes to scalpers. Between amiibos, this, and the mini NES/SNES, moronic fanboys will pay through the teeth to get sold out mediocre products that happen to have a nintendo character on them.

Kid, Nintendo fans are literally one step away from literally suicide bombing heretics for their lord and savior miyamoto. This is not what you call a sane person.

Not even close, and I hate most Sonybros.
Sony brings out the Elitist in people while Nintendo brings out autism in its purest form.

Scalpers usually piss me off, but if Nintendo fans are so fucking stupid they'll pay 50 bucks for a box of goddamn cereal, I say good for you, enjoy your cash.

BING BING WAHOO

Unlocks outfits for Mario in Odyssey that can also be unlocked during normal play, so it's really sad people can scalp this.

>t. buttmad manchild nintenbro

This one dude bought over 30 boxes using food stamp

>Scalping cereal

I want to live in a world where nobody would pay for this.

but is it legitimately cereal?

You don't know who your talking to. I haven't bought a brand new Nintendo product from the store since the Game Cube. No Amiibo's, not a single version of the dozens of slightly different DS/3DS's, no consoles or games from the store. Everything I've bought has been second hand, unless it's games from a handful of studios including Grasshopper Studios. I am the antithesis of not supporting their completely obvious corporate avarice whore shit. I speak with my money, and I don't support shady business tactics like this.

I'm not some Ninten-drone consumer pawn, but it shouldn't be this hard to find something as simple as fucking cereal.

It just kind of bothers me that there's literally no way for a company to do a 'limited edition' anything like this these days without someone just trying to make a quick buck on top of it. The company has done something to earn that money, by making a product people want. The retailer has done something to earn it, by facilitating the easy purchase of it. The scalper has just acted as a middle-man looking to profit from the work of others.

>autism

Nintendo fans are literally supporting terrorism. That goes beyond autism.

>t. buttmad autistic manchild rper

all the costumes you can get by just playing the game tho

It's just a result of the company pricing their product below the market value.
If nintendo priced higher or made more supply scalpers wouldn't exist.

How can I keep up with this stuff so I know when I can scalp something?
Probably could've gotten boxes of this a week or two ago.

[CITATION NEEDED]

amiibos are literally the biggest bullshit ever invented for a video game. I'm extremely surprised nintendo gets off as easy with them as they do.

BotW for example about as many armor sets locked behind amiibos as exist in the base game itself. That's not even considering the genuinely cool stuff like the twilight princess link pet companion and epona that should've just been in the base game. That's quite shameful if you ask me.

If it is a nintendo product placement then it's scalpable.

I'm sure one or two people would by an xbone if it cost a thousand dollars user, but that does not make it its value. You price something according to what you believe is the sweet spot between how much you can make on an individual unit sale and how many sales you can make.
I think it's because they don't make a massive deal of it. While there is content locked behind them, it's not 'half the game is in the season pass' tier.

It taste like lucky charms.

>I'm sure one or two people would by an xbone if it cost a thousand dollars user, but that does not make it its value.
If you only release one or two xbones then yes it is.
>You price something according to what you believe is the sweet spot between how much you can make on an individual unit sale and how many sales you can make.
Nintendo clearly doesn't since all there stuff gets scalped.

>only way to get the classic garb outside of amiibo is to beat all 120 shrines
>after you find and beat all 120 shrines there is literally no reason to explore anymore
>you get literally no use out of the green tunic unless you pay 15-20 dollary-doos for an alternative version of it

People scalp brand new consoles, too. Just ask the idiots that still have cars full of Wii Us and Xbone Xs that they can't sell for above retail anymore. Scalping is not an indication of a problem with pricing.

I think it just speaks to the state of the industry. In a world of pre-orders, day 1 DLC, season passes, microtransactions, loot boxes, etc etc, amiibos fall under the radar.

That's pretty much the crux of it. A decade ago, they'd be a controversy. Today? They're one of the least worst options. Plus at least you get a kind of nice thing for your shelf with your DLC.

Can Nintendo do anything without this retarded shit happening? They could literally put aids infested needles in a bag with Mario on it and niggers would still try to scalp it.

Successful scalping is indication of price/supply problem.
Failed scalping clearly indicates nothing and is just morons who mispredicted the market. They were probably trying to bank on supply issues early in console release or thought it would be like the Wii.
The only reasons nintendo scalpers can profit is because nintendo undeprices and/or under supplies their novelty products.

They have this habit of drastically understocking products. I understand for branding purposes not wanting Mario cereal or NES minis sitting on the shelf for eternity but understocking things intended for actual consumers is just as bad. They position them as small run products, build a hype train then ship them in 'super exclusive collectable' quantities. And they keep doing.

It's fucking cereal though.

With any luck, it's going to be a non-issue and all these scalpers are going to get burned Wii U style. Wouldn't count on it though.

At tgis point Nintendo should just collect vast quantities of dog shit spray paint it gold and call it limited edition korok seeds and make amother fortune.

>scalpers are even hoarding boxes of fucking cereal
I'm not sure whats more ridiculous between this and Nintendo not shipping out to stores that people actually go to. You really cannot just go to your local grocery store and get this box of cereal and it's not because of scalpers but these assholes are making it harder.

>>after you find and beat all 120 shrines there is literally no reason to explore anymore

except the 900 fucking korok seeds :^)

>cars full of Xbox one X
Now that's just plain stupid

MS were hyping the thing like it was a mini console launch. It's a cool piece of hardware but they were really overdoing it.

Kek. That would require too much effort collecting dog shit. Why not just clip their fingernails and sell them as golden feathers

Do grown-ass men actually give a shit about this?

Scalpers deserve to have their houses burned down. Scum of the fucking Earth.

Fuck off i'm sick, i can't eat sugary shit right now.

Generally what happens is the literal scum of the earth buy them up, then a couple of manchildren might be desperate and/or lazy enough to pay them. I wouldn't be expecting them to sell all their fucking cereal, though. Not these 30 box loads people are buying up.

You will when the N64 mini comes out.

What has this fucking world come to where people are scalping CEREAL BOXES.
GOD DAMN BOXES FULL OF SUGARY CEREAL.
FUCK.

It's not a big deal but I had cousins come over last week who love mario and went looking for this cereal while grocery shopping and was confused as to why I couldn't find a simple box of fucking cereal at my grocery store

Soy

It's Nintendo fags fault for buying anything with the N on it. They are like niggers with jordans. Only difference is they don't kill each other on line and only complain on the internet later.

Does this shit at least taste good?
I don't carr about the shitty box, I don't own Mario Odyssey.
I only care about the stupid cereal.

But it's not even Nintentards that are buying 50 boxes of this cereal at once.
It's people that are looking to actively piss off the Nintentards.

That's why this stuff tends to trigger people. It's not so much the scalping as the people that just wanted a silly gimmick cereal or a NES mini to play some old games or something that get screwed because some asshole decided to try and make a quick buck out of someone else's work.

Blame nintendo not the scalpers lol.
Or just grow up and stop being such a consumer whore.

Why are nintendo fans so autistic?

But it's full of bing bing and wahoos!!

>consumer whore
It's fucking cereal

You say that, but dirty used crack ninteneedles would inevitably be forcibly recalled in most countries and would then sell for thousands on ebay.

user, they aren't the ones scalping it.

Yeah and you're upset because you can't buy the one with mario's face on it.

But they aren't paying for them.

>Can make amiibo for $40 up front (free if you have an a good android phone already) and $0.30 a NFC tag

>Paying $12 for cereal

Blame Nintendo for what exactly? The scalpers are the entire problem.

You're an idiot

Yikes

Aaron kosharsky is a faggot.

Lol

OH OHNONONONO LOOK AT THIS DOOD

>Promises that it taste like bing bing and wahoos
>Can only taste wahoos

>tendies are literally screeching for their daily soy fix

>Mario ingredients

Not 'Mario cereal' just 'Mario'?

Most cereals use that user.

For not supplying enough retard.
Scalpers are just selling at market value and you're so butthurt for it.

Sure they do sweetie, sure they do
