Wow. I never thought I’d see the day where I’d write about an experience that was both incredible yet terrifying for me. I can remember a few years ago when I had to wake up early and travel an hour away because I lived in the middle of nowhere, all for the sake of being one of the first people in line. Waiting took forever. My knees would always shake from exhaustion. And the end result? I was $12.99 poorer all for the sake of an Amiibo.
We nerds are very familiar with Amiibo. And those devoted fans who started collecting them on day one remember the traumatic experiences of hoping the nearest Best Buy, Target, and GameStop had enough Amiibo to go around, especially for you. Thankfully, the Amiibo craziness has wound down, which means that the crazy, early lines are non-existent now. Amiibo still exist, but at least now, Nintendo has the common courtesy to make sure there’s enough to go around.
