Toys “R” Us seems to have nabbed another amiibo exclusive in the United States. On Twitter, the retailer teased that Mega Yarn Yoshi – as well as a restock of Villager – will only be available at its stores.

Here’s the relevant message:

An image surfaced yesterday of Mega Yarn Yoshi on the Toys “R” Us holiday big book. Given today’s information, it now makes sense that they’d want to feature the amiibo prominently in its promotional materials.

The Animal Crossing amiibo cards work with the recently-released Happy Home Designer, and some can even be scanned in with Super Mario Maker. Also, they’ll be compatible with Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival. That won’t be the end of their use apparently.

In an info card included with Happy Home Designer, Nintendo says that additional compatible games will be announced in the future. We’re not sure what’s planned, but it’s always nice to see amiibo extended to more titles.

Oh, and in case you needed a reminder, Nintendo reconfirms that a total of four Animal Crossing amiibo card series are planned. Each series is comprised of 100 cards.
