I know stock is still uneven and there are some hard to find figures, but it really feels like Nintendo has upped their Amiibo game this holiday season and is providing much better availability.
Why say this? I gave them crap when distribution was bad, it's only fair to compliment when things improve in (I think) a significant way.
Some might argue "too little too late", but since the actual in-game support is so weak I think it's fine. These are mostly for collectors as far as I can tell.
