Nintendo of America issued an official statement about the status of amiibo over on its Facebook page just a few minutes ago.
In the lengthy message, the company apologized to fans who have been frustrated by the inability to find certain figures in stores. It was also reiterated that sales of figures exceeded Nintendo’s expectations.
As for what will be done to remedy the situation, Nintendo says that the company is “trying to meet the demands of our fans and consumers by increasing the amount of amiibo we manufacture and ship to retail.” There are already plans in place “to bring back some currently out-of-stock amiibo figures.”
