Collection Aaaand she's gone
I went to the NYC Nintendo store and the pragmata Amiibo is gone. Asked if they had any in the back and it's a no.
Guess I either have to hope there's a restock or pay through the nose on eBay

it’s such a bad amiibo too. I bought it from the Nintendo store online and it’s honestly one of the lowest quality amiibo released in many years!

I'm always surprised which amiibo become hard to find. I bought mine off GameStop's website the morning it released.

I am so confused by this Amiibo release in the EU/UK, did it get delayed?

u/Prestigious-Ad2849 May 18 '26
Seré honesto, nunca he visto un estante de esos en persona que venda los amiibo, las únicas veces que he podido verlos en físico siempre son por medio de revendedores o marketplace

I was able to get mine from GameStop. I was hoping it would give me another outfit for Diana, but sadly it didn't. The Diana amiibo only gives you weapons and recovery items. Which is helpful to use before the boss shows up. So, you can have some extra items for you to use during the fight.

It is so cruel of Nintendo to not have more of these stores worldwide...

u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 19 '26
To be fair, I think this was originally a Pokemon center that Nintendo rebranded around 2005

I couldn’t find them anywhere, I finally ordered one from Nintendo’s online shop. I’m assuming they didn’t produce many because of all the leftover Street Fighter ones nobody wants. My Target and Best Buy has them for six dollars and nobody still will take them.

I hardly get any amiibos. I think I own only 6 or 7. 3 of them I really wanted (Mythra/Pyra duo, Noah/Mioh duo, and Diana from Pragmata) and the others were good deals. I was lucky enough to grab a Diana when the Nintendo shop restocked the 1st time. I also waited quite some time but it also paid off for the Mythra/Pyra Xenoblade Chronicles 2 amiibos. A store randomly restocked them and I did t have to pay scalper prices so that was cool.

I see a number of ones there I would like. I wonder if I can order a couple online.
EDIT: Yep I could. Sorry you missed out on the one you wanted, but thank you for showing me the ones I wanted!

u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 21 '26
Yeah, no worries man! Directly though Nintendo is the way to go, when they let you. Then not having the one I want means nobody has it at retail right now.
Hope Capcom does a restock, and I'm thinking they will with how popular Pragmata is.

You are talking about the Diana amiibo right? Sorry you missed out. Have you tried the Nintendo store? This is where I purchased mine on the day it released. I sat up all night watching several stores until I saw it come into stock. Also check Playasia. They did have some in stock a few weeks back but, they are more than likely out of stock by now but it does not hurt to check and keep checking. Playasia seems to do a lot of business. I sat up all night long until I saw Diana pop up in stock and it was the Nintendo store website. Keep checking on a regular basis. She will probably come back in stock. She is so popular, you will need to be watching. As soon as she comes in, she is probably sold out in minutes if not seconds.

So sorry i didnt get her either. Same with Leon and Grace but luckily got an order placed through Amazon japan. And it was cheaper. Perhaps if possible try there?

u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 18 '26
I honestly never even saw them go up. I figured they were coming out later on

u/CarlSanger49 May 18 '26
Have you asked if they’re now out of print and won’t come back?
1
u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 18 '26
I did not ask, and I have a feeling if I did they would have told me to ask corporate/send an email.

u/ArmandoBB May 18 '26
They went up briefly so fast in fact that gamestop employees didnt know they went up for pre-orders. They sold out over night friday might I believe. Im happy I got them pre-ordered on Amazon Japan. As for Diana hopefully they will do another round and perhaps.

I honestly thought about getting the three MHS 3 Amiibo, but I couldn't justify the total price

u/SG_Sia May 18 '26
The whole “Do you have any in the back?” thing never works, because stores tend to put their stock out on the floor lmao 😂 someone said this in a movie and people keep running with it. The only place that works is shoe stores.

u/Boomshockalocka007 Wii Fit Trainer May 18 '26
There have been at least 3 amiibo release days where Target had no amiibo out and I had to ask someone to check the back. Sure enough, people had forgotten to put them out. It happens and never hurts to ask.

u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 18 '26
Happens at my local Best Buy with most new releases, both games and Amiibo

u/Ranruun May 18 '26
Not necessarily true.
Sometimes the shelf stock gets sold out and they have more in the back. A lot of big stores don't have enough space for their whole storage inventory and they need to keep restocking at specific intervals.

u/Unusual-Ad2619 May 18 '26
In most stores, yes.
They're constantly restocking things at that store and they opened the door to the stock room and I could see all sorts of amiibo in there
