Preorder Super Smash Bros or Naw?

sooo Toys R Us is having a deal where if you pre-order the game on their site, you can also pick out an amiibo - for free.
I was stoked when I heard about that deal, but I'm not really into the whole amiibo idea just yet, so I was thinking of waiting for Nintendo to have a deal on their own... kind of like what they did with Mario Kart 8 (picking out a free game once you buy it).
I liked that idea, and I'm hoping they do the same with Super Smash Bros.
what are your plans?

I have $80+ in sears/kmart points so I'll be getting it there. Also, the amiibos look pretty terrible. And no Palutena option? (Best girl)

[quote=RheeBreezy]@Caeg eh, that bundle doesn't really appeal to me...
anyways, I see what you're saying. so if they have a digital promotion, it would be applied to the ones that pre-ordered it, too? I didn't really think of it like that... I might actually pre-order the game from Toys R Us then.[/quote]
The bundle is more pointing out that there's a better chance of getting the promotion since Nintendo is proving is trying harder and harder to get WiiU sales from Super Smash. [url=http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7127/~/club-nintendo-mario-kart-8-free-game-offer-faq]Here[/url] are the instructions on obtaining the free game from when they held the Mario Kart promo. It only requires for you to register the game online with a code that will come inside of the game pre-order or not.

[url=http://i.imgur.com/62VO9bh.jpg]This was just recently leaked from Amazon or something.[/url] I would say there's a good chance they hold that promotion again. The Mario Kart 8 promo was a digital download only and you were only allowed to pick from select games. So even if you preordered the game and they hold the promotion, you will would just need to register the game online to get the free game.

The Amiibos are kinda like pokemon where you train and feed them, so I will be getting one. I will only be getting one though as I am not a collectibles person.

Edit: I preorder the Wii U bundel on GAmestop that comes with the GC adapter and controller.
