Has there been any actual confirmation that specifically these 3 are being discontinued or is this all just speculation based off a Twitter account of some irrelevant unrelated company.


Speculation.

Here's a new quote from NoA:
“Some amiibo were very popular at launch, and it is possible that some amiibo in the United States, Canada and Latin America may not be available right now due to high demand and our efforts to manage shelf space during the launch period. Certain sold-out amiibo may return to these markets at a later stage. We are continually aiming to always have a regular supply of amiibo in the marketplace and there are many waves of amiibo to come.”

It's launch period and people are being played. I expect pre-orders for wave 3 and onwards to be much higher.

Thanks for the response. People need to be smarter than to simply believe the word of some Canadian game retailer's Twitter. It should be taken with at least ten thousand grains of salt.

but if youre selling limited stock in the first place it doesnt make any difference, if you make and sell 20,000 in ten days or one, its still the entire allocation sold.

and theyre pulling stock that "doesnt sell well", rather than making the stuff actually in demand limited.

its stupid, it doesnt attract high demand at all, it just attracts scalpers, which drive up the cost and make people LESS likely to buy and use them.

Ty would say otherwise



Nintendo is already rich they don't need your money LMAO

OK we know Square Enix making the same port over and over (FFVII), Sega did not want to localize yakuza series to the west (it was just recently brought by SONY to the west with Yakuza 5), Nintendo almost fall on the same categories.

I really want to know what is actually happen there, maybe some one can ask an Insider on gaf or people from KOTAKU. we need some answer what actually happen.



They have made it clear they dont need NA.
