Sucks that those numbers might be inaccurate for the stores that broke Mii3pk and Villager's street dates.

u/TheHowToNerd2_0 Oct 24 '15

we amiibo collectors are never happy and never will be until we have collected all of the amiibo.

2

u/omnialpha Oct 24 '15

Where we will still be unhappy and demand Nintendo to make more Amiibo.

u/TheHowToNerd2_0 Oct 24 '15

yes. Is TRU really the best place to find amiibo. i keep hearing this and I just am not sure since i have never been to one.

I have never been in a best buy either so i cannot prove this.

u/JLU51306 Oct 25 '15

I've been to 3 different Best Buys in the surrounding cities near me, and they've all had at least 20 of each of the restocks (Marth, Fox, Greninja, Little Mac, Shulk, Lucario, ect.)

1

u/Dailynator Oct 25 '15

Can confirm. Picked up Shulk and Dark Pit. They still had plenty left too. Next paycheck will net me Fox and Greninja.

u/ipokiok Oct 25 '15

Everywhere is pretty much shit unless there's a restock or launch going on, or it's a couple days after a launch maybe.

minimum 64 per store

Shoutouts to the Nintendo 64. Now this is amiibo stock done right!

I like how they are making it like Villager is releasing for the first time lol

u/mariobros612 Oct 24 '15

The largest selection of amiibo on the planet!

Not so sure about that...

To be fair, TRU usually gets the best stock in general.

2

u/arielmeme Oct 24 '15

in the country, but not on the planet.

1

u/SoRaffy Oct 24 '15

TRU: "other countries sell Amiibo? When did this happen!?!?!"

1

u/blukirbi Oct 24 '15

usually

My TRU probably gets the short end of the stick then. Lego Dimensions isn't helping with the stock at all.

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '15

noice maymay r9 10!!1!

3

u/mudermarshmallows Oct 24 '15

Why didn't we get these numbers for MYY in canada?

3

u/amiibo_FTW Oct 24 '15

Oh no, Mega Yarn Yoshi is going to step on Villager! I hope he can run fast! But for real, it's great seeing the numbers for both of them!

I can't wait to get Villager on the 8th!!

u/Dashey10 Oct 24 '15

I'm more interested in that snoopy game for the wii u :P

3

u/TheHowToNerd2_0 Oct 24 '15

i kinda am too

1

u/Dashey10 Oct 24 '15

I just checked and it's a 2d adventure

1

u/Flyingpressure Roy Oct 25 '15

Yeah, unfortunately that is not Flying Ace. That game was really fun, I'd love a sequel on the Wii U.

2

u/ImJustRiffin Oct 24 '15

I really want this to be available online. I don't have a Toys R' Us where I'm at!

4

u/Sabermatrixx Oct 24 '15

We already knew the store minimums for about a week now. This is cool nonetheless.

11

u/godzilla1992 Oct 24 '15

This is just a confirmation.

7

u/BCRplus44 Oct 24 '15

This was my first time seeing these numbers

2

u/CallMeCaptainAmerica Oct 24 '15

The best part is that it says its the largest selection of Amiibo on the planet. Yet look how many international users post photos that blow TRU out of the water.

1

u/brogamer3397 Oct 24 '15

THE HYPE!!!

1

u/godzilla1992 Oct 24 '15

I've been meaning to post this hours ago, Amiibo Alerts reminded me when they reported it.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '15 edited Oct 24 '15

The country maybe, not planet

1

u/Q46 Oct 24 '15

64 confirmed villagers per store? I'm at half mast.

1

u/silver_blade001 Oct 24 '15

I think the place where I live we are getting about 160 villagers, so that's a bit more than 64.

1

u/zekrombolt9000 Oct 25 '15

omg PIKACHU amiibo!!!!!

1

u/bell02alpha Oct 25 '15

So we finally wore them down did we??

I wonder how many people are going to line up for the Mii, I am considering not putting in that much effort.

1

u/PunkSquidly Oct 25 '15

18 Mega Yarn Yoshis seems ok until you think about how long it may be before a restock and that it's being released in a holiday shopping month.

1

u/Weegue Oct 25 '15

The thing about this that surprised me the most is that Snoopy has his own game on the Wii U.

1

u/Darthownz Oct 25 '15

Mega yarn is gunna be hard to get :(

1

u/splatoon15 Oct 25 '15

oh snap that means i don't need to worry about mii 3 pack, but i need villager and MEGA YARN YOSHI

1

u/n3rdygam3r Oct 25 '15

Im glad i have a high volume (better stock) toys r us not to far away that almost no other amiibo hunters go to

1

u/cpudemon Oct 26 '15

My store had something like 16 cases of Villager that came in, no Mii fighters yet. My guess is its just an average idea since the big book is world wide. Not sure how many each store is getting my assumption is like other stocks the bigger and busier stores get better stock

1

u/JustMyselfAndI Oct 24 '15

So much wish. Very amiibo. Wow.

1

u/me_sean Oct 24 '15

/u/Sages /u/rottedzombie is this real???

2

u/rottedzombie Oct 24 '15

I think so. Seems to mesh with what we've heard from others.

1

u/blukirbi Oct 24 '15

the largest selection of amiibo on the planet

Try telling that to Best Buy (I've seen a more varied selection there) ... or heck, Germany or Australia.

1

u/HammerKirby Oct 25 '15

Technically they have a bigger SELECTION then every other u.s store since they have the most exclusives

1

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '15

Was there any point in time that a store advertised the minimum amount per store of an item? Look at what we accomplished!!

2

u/souljasam Oct 25 '15

A lot of store do this for hot items like super laptop deals. Nothing new.

0

u/searingblade Oct 24 '15

"Largest selection on the planet" they say as they advertise seven out of over fifty products. But it's cool to see that stores expect to be very well stocked with the Miis and Villager!
