That's great. Not sure what the analysts were saying as far as ''disappointing sales''. Silly analysts

I read the Forbes report, they somehow got it in their heads that this would be a Skylanders level of success overnight... It's pretty clear they don't fully understand what purpose the amiibo even serve.

That Forbes report was drivel.  People just give it more respect because it's a financial magazine.  In reality it was a blogger using his position to advance his opinion on why the WiiU and in particuar the WiiU gamepad sucks.  It might as well have been a thread here on VGC...except a thread here on VGC would have had more factual basis and numbers support.
