And suddenly Nintendo's 5.7 million Amiibo sold announcement doesn't seem so impressive...

Well to be fair, that 5.7 million figure is for just a little over a month and with Amiibo being available for a single device with an install base under 10 million (3DS doesn't have Amiibo support yet). While that 65 million figure is for an entire year with Skylanders being available on 10 platforms (Wii, Wii U, 3DS, 360, Xone, PS3, PS4, iOS, Android, Fire OS) with combined install bases of like a billion.

Youre over analysing,  the simple fact is, skylander and disney franchise figures are more universally popular to kids these days than nintendo figures. 

 

Its been like that for a long time.
