Since the other thread seems like it's mostly about procurement. I'm curious as to how all of my NW chums have been affected by the Amiibo craze. I think it's kind of insane that releasing a steady string of amazing games only marginally helped Nintendo's position, but releasing a bunch of practical figures of questionable utility has made such a splash. (I say "questionable utility", but I personally enjoy the Amiibo integration into Smash Bros. I think it's innovative and cool.) That said, I can't deny feeling
the hunger myself.
Anyway, I'll ask a couple of questions. Feel free to answer as many as you wishhh...
1) How many Amiibos did you originally think you were going to buy?
2) How many Amiibos do you have so far?
3) How many of them are still in the box?
4) Have you felt
the hunger?
5) How far have you gone to obtain one? (ex. highest price paid, most finagling, import, pre-order, etc.)
6) How do you feel about the Amiibo product, overall? Cool toy? Real-life Pokemon metagame? Crass and exploitative?
I'll answer in a while. Unless the thread disappears, in which case I will forget.
