The official Nintendo UK store updated its amiibo stock earlier today with a variety of characters from the Fire Emblem and Kirby franchises. But within moments of the update both Kirby and Meta Knight vanished from stock, presumably back to Pop Star and whisked away to dreamy homes. While Fire Emblem characters such as Marth, Ike, Lucina and Robin all sold out over the course of the day.
Fortunately, there’s a silver lining, though it comes in Code Name S.T.E.A.M. bundles. For those amiibo collectors who have yet to come within inches of the many rare toys-to-life characters, you can currently purchase all Fire Emblem characters with a copy of Code Name S.T.E.A.M on the Nintendo UK Store. Priced at £45.99 for the turn-based strategy game, a Fire Emblem character of your choice and a free theme, it’s perhaps a little steep in cost for collectors. However, if you’ve yet to play the game but are still on the fence, make sure to give our Code Name S.T.E.A.M. review a read before you take the plunge.
You can view all of the available Code Name S.T.E.A.M. bundles with Fire Emblem amiibo, here, most of which are due to dispatch on June 16. Remember that the store can only ship physical products to residences in the UK. Did you manage to secure any of these amiibo today? Let us know in the comment section below.
Yes
Should have held off the Code Name Steam launch until they were prepared to do this. The game would have done so differently if it launched that way
Kind of goes to show how little interest there is in STEAM that not even Fire Emblem amiibo can get them rolling.
I think it kinda flopped…big time…..and I really feel bad for the dev team who worked so hard on it
More than flopped. Last I heard, only about 40-50k units worldwide.
That’s more than a bomb. That’s a game that had no audience.
But the reviews and those who have the game all say it’s great to amazing. So… should we file this game under hidden and somewhat under the radar gems for posterity?
How come your avatar looks like a little teddy bear are you 2 years old?
That’s a pokemon, idiot
That’s a pokemon idiot
I’d rather just file it under “forgotten and never to be spoken of again”. Who knows how much money Intelligent Systems lost because because of that sad sack of a game.
Thank goodness though that Fire Emblem If is coming along to likely recuperate their sales.
Did Marth always have that tiara?
Marth is a pretty man.
Except Marth is really a woman… Well, supposed to be…
You might be a woman
Reblogged this on CURIOSIDADES NA INTERNET .COM.
They should have done that since the beginning in order to be able to sell the game, but then again Nintendo would have been trashed by media/gamers. I would gladly buy the Robin bundle if release in NA.
Fire emblem games suck compared to old sega shining force games parts 1 through 3
I knew this would happen, but I knew the game wasn’t going to do well even with all the “great” reviews it got. Personally, for me playing as any type of historical figure doesn’t do much for me. That turned me off from the game right away.
Also, where in the hell is Advance Wars? Are we never going to see those games again?
This game is so boring…. zzzzz, even with FE Characters…
It must be boring zzzzzzzz to have to eat tacos all day lol
