Jigglypuff amiibo Smashes Records at Target.com

Nintendo seems to have struck gold with their amiibo toy line. It’s a great chance for fans to pick up officially licensed figurines of their favorite Nintendo characters. I know I jumped at the chance to pick up my Ness amiibo!

As it’s fairly known by now, some amiibo are harder to locate than others. The recently released Jigglypuff amiibo is bound to be one of those super rare figurines. The amiibo is a Target exclusive, and when pre-orders went live, the amiibo sold at a lightning fast 500 units a minute. This makes Jigglypuff the fastest selling item in Target.com history. Not only that, but the Jigglypuff amiibo garnered the website over a million views. In comparison, the second highest rated item gained a mere 20,000. Wow!

Jigglypuff is not the only exlcusive amiibo coming to Target, but the next exclusive amiibo is unknown as of now. Are you going to try your hand at picking up a Jigglypuff? Perhaps you should consider getting a Moon Stone to go with it!

Thanks, MasterPikachu6

  1. -_- ha..ha..ha.. Very funny tk, but were am i suppose to find a moon stone, huh! Were!? Lol

    On a serious note, did they mention what that 2nd highest rated item was?

    1. Lol all the people complaining about me having so many. The WalMart that I live by (I live in Canada, so it’s WalMart exclusive) has so many of them. I bought five from there and there’s still another 7 on the shelf xD

      1. In fairness to you, it’s your money that you’re spending, it’s not hurting anybody on here. You enjoy your Amiibo and don’t even think about what other people say, O.K.

      2. Da fuck? My Walmart was following suit and only letting 1 person get 1 ONLY. I was lucky enough to get the last one in my whole damn city. Quit being one of the punks snatching up more then 1, you only need 1.

        1. If you have money to buy 5 of the same damn nintendo toy youre one rich bastard and I wish I had your money.

    1. Oh it is, and Microsoft and Sony will most likely bring their own toy line out thanks to Nintendo but won’t be as popular as the Amiibos ;D

        1. Let’s compare the amount of Nintendo Produced Characters, to the amount of Microsoft Produced Characters. If you let your Fanboy blindfold off for just one minute, you will find that Amiibo will sell more per year, than any Toys To Life figurines that Microsoft would release…

          1. It is funny that you mention fanboy blindfold, because that is the only reason amiibo are selling well. because it has a big ol’ nintendo stamp on it. 3rd party companies have been putting out figures much nicer than these for decades, and the promises of amiibo functionality have been mostly groundless to this point. go ape shit fanboys!

            1. It also brings all the nintendo properties under one set. The only reason they are as popular as they are is that Nintendo has been limiting stock.

              1. The only reason the Nintendo Ambino Toys are popular is the people buying them is retarted mentally ill most of the usa is on crazy meds …have you seen the commershials one Resperdal causes Tennage boys to grow Tittiys for life….

      1. acpheonix12… I know it’s you who are using my trademarks and frame my style. Do something original for a change instead of being just like me.

  2. Why do people buy stupid,nintendo toys? ….This is one of the problems with modern gameing,gimmicks…..

      1. These nintendo toys unlock feautures in games that should have been in the games in the first place……Nintendo toys suck u r the hater lol

            1. I have no complaints on dlcs if the game is complete. If people want to spend more money on what they like, what’s the problem? I know there are games that sell the dlc like being a essential part of the game, but I just don’t spend my money on games like that. I didn’t see yet a amiibo offering a plus content that was essencial for the story/gameplay of the games.

                1. Ambinos i wouldnt give 50 bucks for the whole damn collection their worthless toys…Im a grow man i play games toddlers and little kids plays with toys.

                  >>>Amiibos can be used in any game that supports it, you don’t need to buy several to use them, although you do have to erase data or something to use it in another game first>>>

    1. Are you just saying you’re in the process of trading or that you want one? Because I would gladly trade one

  3. Yeah i would too if i were you. Also I would trade villager and wii fit trainer for 1 jigglypuff

  4. Starting to hate amiibo. Mainly because of the fact that I would like to get them but I won’t go out of my way and shut down my life just to be first in line at the store to get a useless little figurine

  5. Together Wii Stand

    I was handed the last jigglypuff and charizard figure in my target store. I felt lucky then but I feel much luckier now.

  6. My brother got 3 Jigglypuff amiibos at Target (he always buys 3 for some reason). I only got 1. But at least I got one. I was more shocked at the fact that I actually found a Ness amiibo at Gamestop. I’m SO thankful I got there right when it opened. When wave 4 never even appeared on Gamestop.com, I didn’t think I’d ever get Ness (or ANY wave 4 amiibo). But I actually got them ALL but Greninja(mostly at Target).

    It’s funny. I always fool myself into thinking that there will be a long line of people at the stores searching for the new amiibos when they release. But there never is. Target was like a ghost town. I just lucked out and found most of wave 4 (and Splatoon and silver Mario) in a shopping cart. That’s all they had.

          >>>Don’t feed the obvious troll unless you like feeding them, its trying to become the new Sasori or the former trolls>>>

  7. don’t ever post about amiibos here. anyone who wants one will already know where and when to find them. fuck off pro-scalper scum.

        1. Im on a damn touch screen phone u idiot……its not a PC go do your mother then maybe shell buy u a Ambinio

      1. You don’t have to be a child to collect ANY sort of toys. That’s just the stereotype that toys have. My brother AND sister (and myself) all collect toys (only specific type), and we’re all adults.

  8. I’ve never even understood why Jigglypuff ever made it into Smash Bros. Let alone twice. There’s SO much better Pokémon they could have chosen.

    1. I never saw any definite proof, but based on some stuff I read there was a number of other candidates for the first Smash that were considered, including Banjo & Kazzoie. As far as I am concerned, Jiggly was just thrown in at the last minuet because of her popularity in Japan at the time just to fill a spot.

  9. Also for the people above arguing about DLC/Amiibos, I agree, amiibos as far as their more far spread use for most games is concerned is very stupid and just unlocks content already in the game, its more like on-disc DLC then regular DLC. The only game that uses them in a unique and not content locking way is Smash Bros and that should have been the how all games utilized them.
    The games that support them should have been designed around the idea of having stats that you level up between different games that then transfer to other games, so like if you have Mario amiibo for Smash the levels he gains in there can then be transferred to some kind of special mode in Mario Kart 8 and vice versa. The only other game so far that seems to be doing something similar to this is the new Chibi-Robo game that seems to have some kind of leveling up system.

    This is why I only buy them merely for the collector factor and keep them in the package. Its unfortunate I have to support the continued disc-locked content that they enable. The only game where I really would like to actually use them on to unlock the content is with the Fire Emblem guys in Codename S.T.E.A.M. I am actually rather disappointed that they have not announced yet more of the amiibo cards for the ones already released.

    1. Nintendo has struck Queer fanboy Money piles With its Stupid Ambino Toys after releasing The Wi U a system with last gen specs and a non hd game pad…Nintendo is going into Mobile games wich suck..The Wi U has no 3rd party support….The new 3ds xl has only a few games for it and barley any announced ..Nintendo took the Voice chat out of its fun Kiddie game Splatton Rememer This is The same Company that took the blood outta Mortal Kombat…And nintendos strict game downloading policy has many not wanting to buy digital…….Nintendo Quit Being A Big Japanese Pussy Cop Company U Suck I know u can make ggod games But wake yoyr Japanese Disney Ass up You Even Took Swapnote Off The Damn 3Ds You Suck Ninteno..its 2015 You Jap Pussy Cop Company
