Amiibos sold 2.5M in Nov + December combined. PS+ has 11M (10.9M as of Jan. 4th) by itself and costs $50 while an Amiibo costs $12. 2.5M Amiibos @ $12 = $30M. 11M PS+ subs @ $50 = $550M. If they keep this pace of 2.5M per 2 months that is $180M. This is way way WAY behind PS+ and it doesn't even include Xbox LIVE. In other words, your claim is HIGHLY unlikely, especially since PS+ and Live are recurring costs while a $12 Amiibo is not.
Edit - Nintendo rep says "Total sales", meaning Amiibos sales are very like not US only. Just in case you were wondering. |
Do you get that Amiibo was released in December in Europe and Japan, also it was a limited number of pieces. And it did not have even support for 3DS yet. But I will keep it just as prediction for now.
P.S: If it's total figures globally, so it's 5 million amiibos. Which would be $360M, and amiibo does not need maintenance at all, which means if it keeps it pace, will really outdo at least PS+ and Live individually.
