Nintendo will be releasing the first set of Animal Crossing amiibo cards in North America next week. If one GameStop store is anything to go by, they should be pretty well stocked.
The image above shows the unit amount for the cards at one GameStop location. This is a small store, so people are counting on the amiibo seeing similar numbers (if not higher) at other outlets.

Rumor: GameStop not taking pre-orders for various amiibo launching on Sept. 11
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 11 Comments
The amiibo board over on Reddit has received word that GameStop will not be taking pre-orders for a number of figures launching on September 11 in the United States. Supposedly, there are no plans to take reservations for Ganondorf, Zero Suit Samus, Olimar, and 8-Bit Classic Mario. This information comes from a memo distributed “to certain tiers of GameStop management.”
While there won’t be any pre-orders, we’re hearing that a limited amount of each figures will be offered through GameStop’s website. Also, allocation sent to each store will depend on previous amiibo sales.
Here’s what the stock numbers look like for one store (will vary by each location):
Ganondorf ~10
Zero Suit Samus 116904 ~13
Olimar ~12
8-Bit Classic Mario ~10
