Amiibos Have Become a Live-Action MMO Questline

Nintendo's amiibos frighten me. I have an entire shelf dedicated to my Disney Infinity figurines, and on top of that, I have about twelve Skylanders figurines (which is hardly a lot) with the various Portal of Power in a cabinet taking up space. So getting any one of the numerous adorable amiibos would just open the floodgates, luring my materialistic fanboy side into the darkness. I dare not enter for the sake of my sanity.

A part of my reluctance stems from several anecdotes by other fellow journalists about just how difficult it is to get the complete set, running from retailer to retailer to follow through on their hopes that they find Shulk at GameStop, Meta Knight at Best Boy, Lucario at Toys 'R Us, and Rosalina and Luma at Target. That's a lot of gas money or, if you're in the city, at least a lot of walking.
