Nintendo has announced (thank you Google Translate) that the worldwide total sales of amiibo this year has reached 10.5 million bodies, compared to 5.7 million bodies at the end of last year. This further proves the huge success of the amiibo figures, most of the support coming from the US and Canada as they represent 66% of the shipments. This is just another cherry on the cake of a pretty good financial year for Nintendo.
Nintendo’s Amiibo Reaches Milestone Of 10.5 Million Shipments
first
wut?
It’s numbers SHIPPED guys, not sold.
I’m guessing only a small percentage of them are not actually sold, especially considering that most of them are sold out within minutes of preorders going up and the fact that Nintendo has been trying to keep shipments down to just the level of demand there is and no slack at all.
Nope
Prove him wrong then…….oh that’s right you can’t ;p
If sales are so hot, why didn’t they double? It means they should less than at launch
If amiibos are selling so much, why isn’t the profit higher?
If the games sold so much, why didn’t they make a bigger profit?
If the fiscal year is so good, why did they apply the conversion to yen on US Dollars that have not gotten into Japan yet
If the year as been so great, why did Nintendo bank reserves go down?
But you only care if a Nintendo website posts “success” or “failure”, you never actually check the numbers
Are you really this stupid. You must be from a remote town in Spain, no pun to the nation great people but you are putting out that vibe. Amiibos are selling out, I have been looking for Shulk for ages now. Nintendo is scampering to restock the back orders on Amiibo.
F=ma.
The numbers are on Nintendos website genius. You obviously havent been checking them. Nintendo made hella profit. Amiibos have shipped over 10 million. In four or five more months Nintendo will have shipped over 15 million.
And what are you even talking about bank reserves going down? You do not know enough about Nintendo’s complicated financials to even know what that means.
It’s not enough, it’s never enough. MOAR I DEMAND!
And give us the store exclusives as non exclusives
Nintendo Vil Voldta dem…. VOLDTA!!!
I would ask Nintendo to better their supply upkeep with demand… But damn, that’s a lot of Amiibos. No wonder they’re having difficulty matching the two.
Damn son. That’s pretty good.
Already outsold the Wii U lol
a lot cheaper than a wii u
Wii Spotts was a lot cheaper than the Wii. Still sold less than the actual console.
Sports*
Because that’s a GAME for a CONSOLE of course there would be less sold! More Amiibo are sold than the actual console because unlike Wii Sports, people have more than 1 Amiibo. Some people who don’t even have the console collect them!
I’m just saying his analogy is screwed up.
Amiibo are bought by collectors with no WiiU console. Scalpers galore. Did you buy a console game and not the console just to read the player manual?
Dumbass, it’s $13 and you only buy them once to use on multiple games. That’s it. Of course action figures are gonna sell more.
Not to mention there’s multiple types so you’ll buy others as well driving more sales.
Yep. Nintendo is so dead.
Dead in true gamers’ hearts, yes.
No not true gamers only to the casual ” dude-bro ” crowd following gamers such as yourself. Quit while you’re ahead you pathetic troll
True gamers still buy Nintendo and play finished games like bayonetta 2, Super Mario 3D world. Not DLC nonsense like evolve.
F=ma.
LOOOL IT OUT SOLD Nintendo’S CONSOLE THAT USES NFC LOL!
I have one wii U I have more than one amiibo I wonder wy it outsold it…
Common sense must not exist in your brain.
Amiibo won this generation
Activion sell 5.5M of Skylanders EVERY MONTH, so yeah, amiibo sales are good, but only 1/3 compared to Skylanders
What were the sales for Skylanders in their first 6 months?
9.6 million if I remember right
Falsified data.
Amiibo have been in limited quantities though, Nintendo should have sold a lot more of these.
It’s been out for a few years but as I see it, it’s dying out so 5.5 million a month is pretty stretched out and nonsensical to be true.
this can’t be happening. :'(

I think they could have done way better than that to be honest. The figure are really popular and they could have easily double that number. From what I know so far, they could have produce more figure by using 3D printers (they are done by hand by all account).
Cool. It would be doubled or tripled if Nintendo was better stocking these fucking things.
