Amiibo - 104k

Most Popular: 
Link Amiibo - 16k

・ “amiibo” sold 104 thousand units across 18 characters.
As a simple calculation, one unit was sold per 2 copies of “Super Smash Bros. for Wii U” so far, although there was the possibility of buying multiple units and of purchasing it alone.
Among all characters, “amiibo Link” was the most popular (16 thousand units), which was compatible not only with “for Wii U” but also with “Hyrule Warriors,” so it seems to acquire users who wanted to get special items.

Amiibo's doing well. I hope they momentum can be maintained!



Hmmm, that is a good number, but I sort of hoped more would have sold in Japan.

I was expecting more like 150k FW for them.

Comes with a weapon DLC for HyWa, probably the most value of all the amiibo.

Also, Zelda might not be massively popular in Japan compared to Nintendo's other franchises, but the core fanbase who are there tend to love it.



Those are some good sales!
