Wow that was quick, what was the point of making them in the first place?


I imagine these three are not in huge demand compared to the others?

I imagine this is the reason they got cut. The next line is coming in like 1 or 2 weeks, with limited store space, this move is making more room for these upcoming figures. They also believe these figure won't have as long of legs as a Mario or Yoshi.


Ya lets run down the list.

Marth while super popular is a character in a genre that is very niche, a lot of day 1 buys by strong fans of the franchise, long term sales unlikely.
Wii Fit Trainer most likely the lowest sales of all of the models.
Villager now this is the one I question, namely if they do have animal crossing ever planned for the Wii U, I guess you can reintroduce him later, or resupply at later date.

Damn, that means i'll have to take care for Ike when his wave is released, if Fire Emblem characters are eligible for elimination...



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

That's Ok with me.. I wasn't planning to get any of those Amiibos!

That's just stupid. Look at Skylanders. They still sell the originals!



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

Me!

I thought the Wii Fit Trainer would be one of the hottest items.
