The Retro Goat Reacts: I honestly believe this is going to lose a lost of buyers because this is a lot of money to be suddenly expected to be paid for in five days. Not to mention this is Christmas time. I don’t know about you readers, but I don’t have $155 to spend on these crates less than a month before Christmas. It’s also really expensive, and even though I was hyped, I’m well aware of that. Ten amiibo’s are $130, but for a few other items, this costs $20 more. There’s also no Link, which I find baffling. He’s technically the most useful amiibo right now, being able to unlock a new weapon on Hyrule Warriors, a new costume on Mario Kart 8, and his uses in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Very disappointed he’s not included. Overall, I’d get it if they announced the price earlier than five days before they’re released, if it was cheaper, and/or it wasn’t being released on the holiday season. I can’t afford to spend this much money on myself, and there aren’t many people I’d buy an over one hundred dollar gift for. I admit, I am disappointed. I am still hyped for amiibo’s though, even if I can’t afford this care package.
