The amiibo problem is a problem for the core consumer, but not for nintendo.  Amiibos will be available to you at a store of your choice, but you are always limited to finding the most recognizable.  For the casual, it's an entry into the genre.  For core, it is a hunt.  Despite this, the business is thriving because of it.  Gamestop loved the fact that it's online store crashed.  Walmart is greatful for the Gold and Silver Mario edition.  Target, best buy, Toys R us, and game stop love Nintendo for this.  We suffer, but Nintendo is in good standing with where it counts; the profit.  But that's a business, that's how it works, and ultimately for nintendo, it's good for them.

Making consumers suffer is not good for business and ultimately wont be good for the future of the company.

The fact that you made this thread to try and defend their business practice is likely because of all the negativity you've heard about Amiibos which is a clear sign of bad business, and who's fault is that? Nintendo, and they deserve every bit of negative comment in regards to Amiibos.
