Nintendo expecting first round of amiibo shipments to sell through “really quickly”

I really wonder how high the demand actually is because I imagine Nintendo will sell out regardless of demand. Shipments will probably be low.

I agree - they seem to be testing the water and I. Et their initial shipments will be very low to ensure a sell out - if they are already projecting a sell out now they have time to ship more if they are inclined- I'll prob get the Smash brows w free Amibo deal at Toys r Us and see if my 8 year old is interested- since they are not specific to 1 game and the longer I wait the more I'll know how much use they will be beyond what has been announced so far, I don t see the hurry

Good idea. I can't imagine that most people want the figurines for their actual functionality though. It certainly isn't worth the price solely for their function.

I for one, only care because I'm a Nintendo fan who loves Nintendo collector's items.
