This man is a hero and a patriot, and I support his cause fully.

Okay, after a bit of searching I found an archive of the original interview, and it helps shed a bit more light on the whole situation.

Again, relevant bits, and "DD" refers to Daily Dose, the guy doing all the hate-buying:
DD: Let me just start off by saying I was a huge Nintendo fan back in the NES-Wii era. I am no longer that big of a fan. I was a bigger fan of Mario when he was from Brooklyn than him just being a resident of the mushroom kingdom. I was a big fan of early Zelda until they decided to shove anime style in our faces I am not a big fan of this. Also, because of certain audiences and choices people made to change Nintendo.

Randy: What do you base your purchases on?
DD: I base them simply on scarce merch, popularity, the hentai look, and obscure character to never have a figure.

Randy: The money you make, do you buy more Amiibo?
DD: Well I could sit here and lie and hide my true reasons behind this but I won’t do that I will give you the full truth…..
With the money I make I simply put it off as extra for any merch I collect myself to spend on or more amiibos. This isn’t the only reason though call this a vengeance against the people who ridiculed me, insulted me, and are fans of stuff I hate. I do not appreciate Rosalina appearing in almost every recent Mario game to date this is pissing me off. Lets see… Mk8, Mario golf on 3ds as Dlc, 3dworld as a secret character, Smash bros 4, and more recently Mario Party 10. The fact Nintendo promotes her so much and people praise her is just disgusting. I hate her fans too I know for a fact her amiibo will be among one of the most popular which is why I took the time to wait and preorder over 100 of her. I do not want her fans to be happy I hate Rosalina as a character and I will enjoy selling her for big bucks. I will also do the same for Lucina(loose in ya),Palutena(Pootytanga),Robin(Throbbin) and Zero suit samus(Zero suit Slunt) When they are announced. I really hate these characters and it just crushes me Nintendo from the good days went to this shit for character designs.


So, according to himself, he does resell them, and hatred is supposedly not the only incentive for buying them all. He apparently targets the figures that he thinks will be most popular, as that will get him the most money upon reselling them.

Even so... with all the awkward nicknames he came up for several of those characters, and along with the obviously heavy set of nostalgia glasses he's wearing, and his general attitude, it really seems like he has some problems to work out.

Not the "I hate woman because my mom didn't love me" type of problems. More like the "I need to feel like more of a special snowflake because my mom didn't love me" type of problems.

I would be more upset about this guy if I wasn't laughing so hard. Who the hell has the money and the petulance to try something like this? The whole "I do this fer justice cuz I hates teh wimminz!" reasoning from the culprit is just the icing on the cake. XD

I'm still amused that he has Lucina on his hate list. Somehow the character who passes as a guy by putting on a mask and pinning up her hair is some kind of massive slut in his mind.

Yeah, he's a gynophobe - no two ways about it.

[Golgo 14]

Yeah, he's a gynophobe - now two ways about it.

Actually, it's about ethics in Amiibo collecting.

[the7k]

Wow. Sonichu has met his equal.

I can't help but think of a time last year at MAGFest when during a Normal Boots panel, someone asked "What the fuck is a sperglord?" - if this had happened then, there'd be a definite "Oh yeah, that's a sperglord."

Will probably end up still getting a Rosalina. Was one of the few characters I really wanted to get an Amiibo of. (Wii Fit Trainer being another of them, but I'm already second guessing myself just spending $13 on one.)

[AmishSamurai]

Gotta love casual misogyny. But anyone complaining about that in gaming communities is an sjw professional victim cultural marxist trying to attack gamers.

I don't even have a wii u and want the link/toon link, lucina, Peach, and Luigi ones.
