Nintendo of Europe weighs in on the amiibo stock situation
When it comes to amiibo, the question on everyone’s mind is whether some of the rarer figures – like Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, and Marth – will be restocked. We’ve seen plenty of different statement about the situation from Nintendo which has only made things more confusing.
We now have yet another comment from Nintendo – this time coming from the company’s European division. Here’s what GameSpot was told:
“Nintendo of Europe would like to confirm that supplies of Amiibo are currently available in the European market. Amiibo have been very popular at launch and as such it’s always possible that a few retailers may have sold out. We are continually aiming to always have a regular supply of Amiibo brought into the marketplace and there are many waves of Amiibo to come.”
I don’t really know what to say at this point. Based on what we’ve seen at retailers, it does seem like some amiibo won’t be restocked. If you really want to be safe about getting a figure, you may as well get a pre-order in going forward.
