First Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer shipment to consist of 500,000 units in Japan
Posted on 10 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Seems like Nintendo is fairly confident that the Animal Crossing spin-off Happy Home Designer will do well in Japan. The company announced today that the first shipment of the game will consist of 500,000 units. This includes both the regular version of the game as well as the one that will be bundled with the NFC reader. Both versions will come with one amiibo card.
Recently, both Splatoon and Fire Emblem Fates were basically sold out in Japan in their first couple of weeks on the market. It’ll be interesting to see how well Happy Home Designer does and if Nintendo calculated the demand appropriately this time.
Update: Gone – Ness, King Dedede amiibo up on GameStop

Mewtwo amiibo spotted at SDCC
Posted on 10 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in General Nintendo, News | 15 Comments
Comic Con officially kicks off this week with the illustrious SDCC. The show floor has been set up, with today being the preview event and the convention officially starting tomorrow morning, going until Sunday afternoon. Nintendo will once again be making an appearance this year, and it seems in their area they’ve set up a case containing some upcoming amiibo, one of them being the newly added Mewtwo to the Super Smash Bros. line of amiibo!
This is more than likely a prototype, but I don’t see it straying too far from this design and look when it officially releases, one would imagine sometime before the end of the year, if not January 2016, as the last wave of the Super Smash Bros. line won’t launch until Holiday season in North America.
So what do you think? Will you be picking Mewtwo up when he finally releases? Obviously most amiibo have been selling out, but with the popularity Mewtwo has garnered since Pokémon began nearly twenty years ago, it’s no doubt Mewtwo will be flying off shelves for a good while. Let us know your thoughts below!
Rumor: Palutena amiibo won’t be retailer-exclusive in the U.S.
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 6 Comments
Two more amiibo are due out in North America later this month. Dark Pit is scheduled for July 31, and Palutena is also coming out on the same day.
You may recall that Best Buy recently announced that it will be the only retailer in the United States to sell the Dark Pit amiibo. This has led some to wonder if Palutena will be meeting the same fate. Apparently not, if the latest rumors are to be believed.
Nintendo Inquirer has heard from “a reliable source within the community” that a Nintendo representative confirmed Palutena’s non-exclusivity. This would certainly be encouraging news for amiibo collectors!
