Amiibo

Mega Man's amiibo looks really well done.
My mom said she'd buy one for me in Florida for Valentine's Day
That makes me hope the Target there will have it.

Wow, that Mega Man Amiibo looks really good. Very shiny and no weird face, giant plastic pieces, etc. I actually thought it was a different figure and not an Amiibo when I first saw the picture, before reading the post. XD

Can someone get rid of that "not revealed yet" part in the first post?
Revealed is spelled wrong, and it's useless anyway.

It's been removed.

5.7 million amiibo have shipped.

That's nice to hear. Though Iwata should have said that more of the rare ones will be made.

Thanks Gameguy.

I really hope there will be more Captain Falcon amiibo made and sold.
They really underestimated how popular they would be.

@Gameguy
Wow, that's a lot! I'm glad Amiibo has been so successful for them. But does anyone find it odd that the Amiibo have sold more than the highest selling Wii U game?

@Luma
Yeah, they obviously didn't think they'd be so popular. That's the problem, Nintendo always thinks their least successful products will be their most successful, and that their most successful ones will be their least. XD

Today was the day that wave 3 amiibo released, I went hunting and it turned out unsuccessful.

Went to EB Games at 9am. Waited around for it to open, first guy there and all they had was Pikachu. Asked a staff member if they got any amiibo in and they said only enough to fulfill pre-orders. 

Immediately after I went to JB-Hi-Fi. Looked around and all they had was Mario and Pikachu. However, I saw two teenage guys standing in line with an Ike, Mega Man and Rosalina. Asked them were they got them from and went back to the game area. All they had remaining was one Bowser, three Mega Man and about a million Sonic. 

After all that I went home and ordered Ike and Shiek from Japan. I will track down Shulk eventually.

^ Even the day they release you can't find any, I'm surprised they've sold 5.7 million Amiibo when nobody can ever even find the Amiibo they want to buy. >_> Good luck though Polar.

How many Mega Man ones Polar?
I really hope they stock him a lot.

Yeah, the whole situation is ridiculous. If Skylanders and Disney Infinity figures get lots of stock why can't amiibo?

There was three Mega Man. What is his release date in Canada?

On brighter news my Rosalina arrived today! 

Spoiler:

According to what's been going on, the US and Canada Wave 3 amiibo aren't street dated.
They can sell them as soon as they get them.

Ha; don't kid yourself. Try finding a Light or Dark Trap Master at your local store: or even one single Kaos trap. Because those aren't abundant as you might think they are. Yea it may seem like Skylandedrs characters are abundant but I'm here to tell you that there are hard to find figures just as there are for amiibo characters. So trust me it probably evens out.

Also: LUCKY you got Rosalina long before I could. D:

^ While that's true, Nintendo never said anything about ANY Amiibo being limited, only released once, barely getting any stock, etc. and yet almost EVERY SINGLE Amiibo is VERY difficult to find. With Skylanders it's just rarer figures that are supposed to be more difficult to find and stocked less, they're supposed to be rare figures. Amiibo didn't seem that way and can be used for many games, so it's kind of ridiculous in comparison. At least that's how I view it.

Toys R Us would not sell Lucario until today and Target won't sell Rosalina until Sunday so those 2 are street dated.

Your luckey Polar and I should be getting my Rosalina on Sunday.

I'm heading out for the Lucario Amiibo soon. I just hope that Toys R Us has some extra ones outside of pre-order and that there not doing the ticket drawing where they select people they can buy one.
