Raru, a retailer in South Africa, has listed the Mewtwo amiibo for release on October 23. Nintendo has naturally not confirmed such a date.

We tend to be cautious when it comes to retailer listings, but Raru’s listing is interesting. You may recall that they leaked the Splatoon amiibo and game’s launch date before the information was announced. This doesn’t necessarily confirm that the Mewtwo date is accurate, but it may be worth paying attention to.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Originally, the Dark Pit amiibo was thought to be a Best Buy exclusive in Canada. There’s been talk since then that this wouldn’t be the case, but it wasn’t until today that we received concrete information.

Walmart is now listing the Dark Pit amiibo on its Canadian website. While the listing isn’t live yet, this means that Best Buy won’t be the only retailer in the country to be selling the figure. That’s good news for amiibo fans in Canada!

Nintendo will be including six cards with the Animal Crossing amiibo card packs when they launch in North America. It’s being handled differently in Japan, as there will only be three random cards in each pack. We now also know what the situation will be like in Europe.

Nintendo’s website from Norway confirms that there will only be three cards in each of the Animal Crossing amiibo booster packs in Europe, much like Japan. One of these includes a “special card”.
