The Min Min Amiibo was first revealed as part of the Kazuya announcement presentation last year, and Nintendo has revealed that she will be available April 29. However, along with this announcement, Nintendo has also noted that the Minecraft Amiibos of Steve and Alex have been delayed.
“The Steve & Alex Smash Bros Amiibo were previously announced to launch in spring 2022,” reads the tweet from Nintendo confirming the delay. “However, due to a logistics and production delay, unfortunately the release timing has been delayed to later in 2022.”
Nintendo didn’t specify when “later in 2022” might mean for the Minecraft Amiibos. The production delay is almost certainly related to the pandemic, as when it comes to tech related products there have been supply chain issues across the board.
