It is alot when you consider...

1. These account for 18 out of the 48 (or maybe 49-50) SSB amiibos released

2. Still has the Super Mario Line to come out, and possibly more

3. Has no Amiibo Game (like Disney Infinity/Skylanders) out at all and are only used for mostly collection purposes.

 

I consider that really good actually, imagine a hub world for amiibos only. :0

More a matter of perspective, really. I don't see the points you mentioned driving sales that much.

Are you kidding me?  You don't think a quality game developed by Nintendo focusing on utilizing the Amiibo figurines would push sales of the toys?  I honestly don't know your posting history...but this seems pretty backward.  I own two: Samus and Link.  I don't really feel compelled to purchase more...but if a game came along that featured an ever expanding universe based on the toys you owned, you better believe I'd own more.  I want a reason to justify the their purchase...I want to give Nintendo money...but it just has to seem worth it...beyond the concept of toy collecting.

 

Regarding points 1 and 2...sure...I don't see those having much impact beyond the current fascination and existing attach rate with them.
