It's a clear success and a genius business move by Nintendo. Amiibos will be prominent for a long time, and they'll become increasingly relevant with each game released.

Amiibos are definitely a success for Nintendo. It's just printing them money.

Anyone that thinks its a failure is pretty cray cray lol

My friends friend said Amiibos are irrelevant skylanders clones that no one wants to buy and no one cares about them except man children. I asked where is his proof that its not doing well he said to take his word on it and check any gaming group, no one is talking about them. Then I was like he needs to visit the Wii U Forums ;) lol...but yeah he thinks Amiibos are irrelvant and they won't sell well.

"I think it will be the HDS"-Me in regards to Nintendo's next handheld.

700k in 2 weeks in the US only is a massive success, far from a failure. I think they could reach past 2m in the US after christmas. Glad they are releasing numbers
