The TRUTH Behind Nintendo's Amiibo Shortages

The TRUTH Behind Nintendo's Amiibo Shortages (subtitled The TRUTH about Amiibo) is the 138th episode of Game Theory on The Game Theorists.
== Description ==
If you keep up with gaming news, then over the last two years, no doubt you've heard about the infamous Amiibo shortages, where Nintendo has failed to supply the US with enough Amiibo to meet the fan demand. But is it really a supply issue or does Nintendo have other plans? How are Europe and Japan able to have enough Amiibo but not the US? And Nintendo has historically had a pattern of creating shortages in the United States. Today, I'm looking at the economics of the Amiibo shortages to see what's really going on here.
