Numerous Toys R Us customers received emails from the retailer this morning, seemingly canceling their pre-orders for the Lucario <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/amiibo/">amiibo</a> figure. As a Toys R Us spokesperson told Joystiq in a phone conversation today, the emails were part of a "technical issue," and pre-orders for the figure will not be canceled.<br />
<br />
Toys R Us added via email, "we apologize for any inconvenience that may have been caused pertaining to customers' amiibo pre-orders. Please know that we are working on an email communication to all customers effected, which will provide instructions on how we plan to fulfill their order." <span>The Lucario amiibo was revealed in </span><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2014/11/22/meta-knight-amiibo-exclusive-to-best-buy-lucario-to-toys-r-us/">November</a><span> as a Toys R Us-exclusive figure, though the retailer's <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/searchHandler/index.jsp?oos=true&amp;nullProductId=54369136">listing for the figure</a> is currently missing from its storefront. </span><span>Toys R Us was unable to offer specific inventory data for amiibo, but assured that the issue was unrelated to its supply of the figures.</span><p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2014/12/19/toys-r-us-lucario-amiibo-pre-orders-not-being-canceled/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Toys R Us: Lucario amiibo pre-orders not being canceled</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2014/12/19/toys-r-us-lucario-amiibo-pre-orders-not-being-canceled/">Toys R Us: Lucario amiibo pre-orders not being canceled</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 19 Dec 2014 14:04:00 EST.

When the switch was flipped to release the New Xbox Experience (<a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/NXE/">NXE</a>) everyone at X3F HQ was huddled around a candle, hoping that Xbox Live wouldn't ... you know, explode! Thankfully, the NXE was released and the Live service continued to run strong, for the most part. However, not everyone had a rosy experience. Some Xbox users connected throughout HDMI noticed an issue, the NXE would not play audio via an HDMI connection. While <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/11/21/nxe-reportedly-causes-sound-issues-for-hdmi-users/">this isn't news</a>, users that have been hit with the audio issue have taken to the Xbox.com forum, now <a href="http://forums.xbox.com/15/24127296/ShowPost.aspx#24127296">threatening</a> to take the issue to the the Better Business Bureau and contact consumer advocacy groups due to Microsoft's refusal to address the problems.<br /> <br /> Only, Microsoft <em>did</em> address the NXE/HDMI problem. On <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/12/02/ms-admits-to-360-audio-problems-caused-by-nxe-working-towards-a/">December 2</a>, X3F reported that Microsoft admitted the NXE had caused the HDMI audio issue for some users and are currently working on a fix in a story on ShackNews. While they don't get points for speed -- actually, maybe they do ... we don't know how long it takes to fix these things -- Microsoft has admitted the problem and aren't leaving anyone out in the cold. Get it? 'Cuz it's December. Never mind, you seem upset.<br /><br />[Ed. Note: Story edited to clarify the audio issue has only hit some HDMI users]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/12/17/nxe-audio-issues-continue-to-fire-up-forum-users-microsoft-stil/">NXE audio issues continue to fire up forum users, Microsoft still working on a fix</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 17 Dec 2008 17:00:00 EST.
