Nintendo stated in a new video today that some amiibo figures in North America will be retailer-exclusive. It looks like we have our first example of that.

GameStop has now opened pre-orders for the Shulk amiibo, and the listing indicates that it’s exclusive. In other words, you won’t find this figure at other retailers. If you want Shulk, you’ll need to buy the figure at GameStop!
