Amiibo sell off of collector mentality and nostalgia alone, which makes so little sense for a game accessory. Everything else has a game or franchise it /needs/ to match up with to be relevant.
Meh. Natsume is busily running the "Harvest Moon" brand name into the ground. Without a game or two that actually pulls its weight, I wonder how long they'll stay afloat.
@lividd3ad If I were Natsume, I wouldn't want to give up the Harvest Moon trademark either. 15+ years of localization for the same series just to have Marvelous buy up the original developers and shift work to their own folks. Can you honestly name any other series that Natsume has to fall back on either?
@ThomasBW84 Like everyone else, I have a whole laundry list of things I wish they'd answer about this (friends, messages, purchases, etc.). Even if it's just "eventually", that'd be better than getting told never.

And nothing of value was lost. Overpriced pretentious short story.
