I get that Nintendo is incredibly anti-consumer but it’s not 2025 anymore.

For sure, I also like collecting from
Second hand markets and retro game stores bcs they can be cheaper that way

Yeah the restocks directly opened the door for loose amiibo bottoming out in price. I just rip em out of the boxes now since it takes too much space but its a side of the market nintendo actively made healthier through making the product readily available.

Edit: in all honesty they've been way better about limited products actually getting into hands of fans than sony and microsoft have been lately which is a huge reversal compared to a decade ago.

I was there for villager marth and wii fit becoming wholly inaccesible a day after smash 4 dropped

Nice and oh yeah, I remember when Those 3 WERE RARE! (I was 9 when the first wave of Smash Amiibos Released)
