The amiibo fever is starting to fade away at last.

And then Nintendo will release a new low quality, low quantity series of Amiibos and everyone will be all over them again, because hey "it's Nintendo!"

Once the consumer tried it there's little reason to go back to it again if he/she lost the interest.

What seems popular with kids nowadays seems to be Shopkins and YouTube Unboxing Shopkin videos.

I actually don't mind having a shelf with a few amiibos' on it. I only have around 10 but I do appreciate them. What they actually offer in terms of game play is minimal, but hey, I've never really been keen on collecting figurines but I like them.

What I don't like is when they first came out and I had imagined that there would not be duplicates of the same character. So I've ended up with, in my opinion, crappier versions of a character, as they came out (smash yoshi, luigi, bowser ). And I'm assuming a better fox will come out later in the year which may be annoying to me.

I got my Lucario and Splatoon Amiibos for stupid cheap and that's all I care I about. The rest are just bonuses now for me.
My boyfriend collects them more than I do, I just wanted my favourites.
