Remember when Amiibos were supposed to be a big flop?

Yeah I feel like half of the Amiibos I want are unavailable in a minute or two, and considering I work two part time jobs it's rare for me to have a day off when the preorders go up (they happen seemingly randomly). Every retailer seems to be pissed at Nintendo too, to the point where competitors are having one of their selling points be 'we will actually supply you guys'.Have 6 myself. Would have much more if I could find them.

I'll wait for a year when they are 70% off. Well the common ones.
Tangent: Please help me. What is the name of the guy that did the really good indepth analysis-reviews of the core 3D Mario games starting with Mario 64?
I was bringing it up to a friend and couldn't find it on my youtube favorites.

I jokingly (?) hold all those people saying that there would be a ton of Villager and Wii Fit Trainer Amiibos on clearance in a few months for what happened.
Seeing so many posts mad me decide to not get both be I thought they would get discounted later.
...they were in my hand.

Villager and Wii Fit Trainer are going to be rediculous limited stock. The hardest 2 of Wave 1 to aquire
Edit - forgot Marth as well. Also very difficult.
I'm sure this news brought Gonzo the Great to the edge of death. But much like a Sayian, I'm sure it'll just make him come back even stronger.

No, I'm still very much alive! And I'm not surprised at all by these numbers, nor am I going to be surprised when the Amiibo bubble bursts a few years from now.
Furthermore, United States and Canada represent 66% of total shipments.
I'm an idiot, I got Mario Kart 8 LTD numbers mixed up with Wii U LTD numbers in my head XDAmiibo have outsold Wii U, but by less an 1 million. Wii U is not at 5 million
We have a ton of Metaknights after the restock though.I often hear the shortages are worse in EU and AUS. AUS, especially has such low stock all the time. NA is just much more louder in their anger about shortages.
now start doing cool stuff with them
unique smash costumes would be nice

Every bubble burst at some point. You act as if they supposed to sell 40 million amiibos for 99 years straight.No, I'm still very much alive! And I'm not surprised at all by these numbers, nor am I going to be surprised when the Amiibo bubble bursts a few years from now. Maybe I'll forgive them if they release a Donkey Kong Country line.
next year these things will probably be like 1.99 each.
Can't see this taking off especially since it's attached to wii u which didn't take off either
bored at work, quick and dodgy maths:
japan 127,300,000
NA 528,700,000
Western Europe 397,500,000
Australia 23,130,000
10,500,000 amiibos shipped
11% Japan - 1,155,000 - 110.2:1 people to amiibo ratio
66% NA - 6,930,000 - 76.3:1 people to amiibo ratio
20% Europe - 2,100,000 - 189.3:1 people to amiibo ratio
3% Australia - 315,000 - 73.4:1 people to amiibo ratio
Australias thirst for Amiibos.
i'm sure if you include the sell through (90% for Aus, couldn't remember the others) it'd be different again.

Imagine how many they could have sold if they didn't undership the fuck out of most of the figures.
Really excited for those yarn Yoshi amiibos. Hope they sell them at a cheaper bundle of 3.
But, even then...I summon Nirolak! Nirolak, were there already packs with multiple toys back when the first Skylanders launched, weren't they?
God, that shit is going to be impossible to find.
And they could sell so many more.
So that's like 10 million Yoshi, Peach and Pikachu Amiibos and 500k for everything else, right?
And they could sell so many more.
