Amiibo

Update (2/2) Destructoid appears to have confirmed this news. Check out the following:

A Target employee has confirmed the authenticity of this document, an internal newsletter called “The Vibe in Electronics.” They state that running out of stock and not getting more shipments for a Target exclusive item is common. They also cement the fact that Sheik may be rare as there haven’t been many shipments coming in at all, but Toon Link is in fact common.


If you’re living in the U.S. and have interest in the Rosalina amiibo, you may want to try finding product sooner rather than later. An internal memo from Target indicates that the figure will not be restocked. As many of you know, Target is the only retailer selling the Rosalina amiibo in the United States.

There are some other interesting points from the memo as well. For instance, Target will apparently not stock the Mega Man, Sonic, King Dedede, and Ike amiibo in store. Consumers will instead be directed to order from the retailer’s website.

Update: Now sold out! Didn’t last too long, but a bit longer than expected.


I don’t see this lasting long, but the Rosalina amiibo is currently in stock on Target.com. You can place an order here. We’ll keep track of the stock situation and will update this post when the amiibo becomes unavailable!

The new Super Mario amiibo series seems to have disappeared from Amazon. Toad, Yoshi, Bowser, and Peach were all up for pre-order just a few days ago, but their product pages have since been removed. Pre-orders haven’t been cancelled, so there’s no need to worry just yet!

People came flocking to Nintendo World in New York City this week in hopes of getting their hands on the wave 3 amiibo. Kotaku reports that on one particular day, over 300 people were queuing around the block.

Interestingly, Nintendo World is the only store in the U.S. to have all of the retailer-exclusive figures in one place. The likes of Shulk and Rosalina were promised, which certainly made Nintendo World an attractive destination for consumers who are invested in obtaining all amiibo.

Amazon is the first retailer to be taking pre-orders in the U.S. for the new Luigi amiibo. To clarify, this isn’t the Smash Bros. Luigi figure – rather, it’s part of the upcoming Super Mario series.

Pre-orders for the new Luigi amiibo can be placed here.. It will be released on March 20 alongside Mario Party 10.

Nintendo has shared data for amiibo in the past, but most of the numbers have been specific to the U.S. Company president Satoru Iwata offered something a bit clearer today as part of Nintendo’s financial results today. According to Iwata, roughly 5.7 million amiibo have been sold worldwide.
