And hey! There’s some actual packs to go around! Many gamers today have been happy to see the Amiibo Retro 3 Pack has been in good supply at EB Games stores, even without a pre-order. Included in the pack is Duck Hunt, R.O.B. and a swappable Mr. Game and Watch that includes three additional poses in the bottom of the package.
Supply of Amiibo has been increasing slowly with Bowser Jr. making Toys R Us look like a treasure trove with how many usually bulk up the shelves. For Pikmin fans, it seems Olimar is Septembers “uncommon” figure even though he’s decently rare. Odds are you’ll see on around if you try out a couple stores.
Animal Crossing cards also hit stores today, allowing gamers to select which character they want to design a home for in the latest 3DS game, Happy Home Designer. Gamers with the older 3DS models can also get a reader either sold separately or with an Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer bundle. From the sounds of it, characters just show up in the game at random unless you play with cards to specifically decide who you want to design for. We’ll have to get some hands on time to determine that.
The reader for 3DS itself looks like a mini Skylanders portal, or the head of Chibi-Robo’s futuristic cousin.
