On August 12 McDonalds' around UK will have Nintendo toys available with (and also sold separately for £1 -- I think that's what they still cost) as listed per Nintendo Life; Yoshi, Mario (4 different types), Peach, Luigi and a Mario Hat.

If you were hoping these to be identical to the ones announced (for 2016) previously which they'd have identical NFC capabilities of an amiibo, nope. Just plastic toys without physical DLC.

Well people do go out of their way to buy them but they are never really worth anything, the quality control looks terrible on these also but im probably expecting too much from happy meal toys

The previous Nintendo Happy Meal toys looked pretty good, well, as good as the actual amiibos.

Looks like they're trying to appeal to their audience.

I haven't visited McDonalds in months but I assume when they're available it'll be like this "Hi, I'd like a Happy Meal for my little brother/sister". :ph34r: It's as embarrassing as the guy in this video lurking over MLP toys in McD.

You don't have to buy the whole Happy Meal to get the toy, you can just buy the toy on its own:

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I like being immature.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Let be immature online ffs.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
