Yes the title says it all. A youtuber is bragging about spending money to stock up on as many amiibos as possible to sell for absurd prices because he hates fans and how nintendo is pushing rosalina. Help stop this guy and don't buy from him, he needs to learn this isn't ok. Not even real scalpers are this bad. Here is the link:

Rosalina hate much? o.O Sounds to me like if I can't have her. Nobody else can.

So...this a$$ is partially to blame for me not being able to find Villager or Pit? Thanks a lot, jerk! Seriously, screw this guy! I hate him! He is just a despicable human being!

There is nothing here...except for the stuff I just typed...

It's the same guy that came to this forum about a month ago and started bragging about his amiibo. If that's the way he wants to live, it's his choice, but I don't think he'll make many friends in life.

Well, true but this is just ridiculous. I'm waiting for angry fans to storm his house and teach him a thing or two, or for him to stop getting profit and loae everything. He will have to stop eventually, statistically no one like him could support themselves that way for ever.

Agreed, i just want 1 of each of my favorites and can't find these two because of people like him.

Thanks, I'll fix it. Oh and here is a video from him. You need an account to view it though as it is labelled inappropriate for some reason. I don't have so i don't know contents. So watch at own risk. Link:

This man should just be banned from purchasing amiibos. Seriously, Nintendo should just find a picture of him, and give it to retailers with instructions to NOT sell amiibos to him.

In a sense, it barely matters. Yes, a certain number of people will be unable to get certain amiibo figures thanks to this man, but look at it from the other side.

He bough a sizeable amount of Rosalina figures.

That completely defies his hate against Nintendo "pushing" Rosalina, since he pretty much signalized increased interest in her. The quicker she sells out, the more it actually promotes her status as a popular character, and he simply helped that outcome.
In all fairness, limited stock is limited, but we should actually drive him into buying even more of those. Chances are that Nintendo will experience enough pressure at some point from retailers, that they will have to restock several amiibo that have taken the rare turn.

Overall, I don't mind him doing this at all. As long as people are aware that they can get most amiibo for better prices elsewhere, it's his loss - his 35 grand loss.

they could, but that would require a picture of him.

I looked at some of his posts guy is a big a$$ hat that don't know what he is saying/what certain things mean, he got a account here, saw that he was bragging on here earlier the week, while he can brag about about money, there is nothing to brag about stupidity.
Also if you got a Rosalina avatar he was call you out...as seen in his twitter account and youtube video as posted above.

Hating imaginary characters in a game is normally a sane thing to do?

What da hell is this? Amiibos, for real? The same thing happens on a daily basis with way more meaningful commodities on the scale of trillions of dollars, screwing over not only consumers, but workers, farmers, miners etc. all over the friggin planet ... some perspective and priorities please. It's good to get outraged and wanting to take some action, but keep focus on what matters.

@jariw Well... I'm sure everyone has their own least favorite character, don't deny it... but I'm pretty sure no one else would do something as stupid as this just so the fans could suffer.
