Reggie: Nintendo having to double/triple amiibo volume estimates to meet demand

This information comes from Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime…

“We’re at a point where we have to take our volume estimates and double them or triple them based on the levels of demand we’re seeing. We’re working very hard to meet that demand.”
