The Sanrio Amiibo cards coming to Animal Crossing: New Horizons are just around the corner, and the value these cards add to the game is insane. Plenty of new villagers and exciting new items are surely going to attract a lot of players. However, since the cards will be available in a limited quantity, everyone will want to grab a pack for themselves.

In the US, the card packs are only available in Target stores. Fans can buy them for $5.99 a pack with a limit of only 2 per customer. Naturally, Nintendo doesn’t want to encourage scalpers who could later sell extra packs for higher prices.

Order Sanrio Amiibo cards online for Animal Crossing: New Horizons

To prevent the contraction of COVID-19 and reduce crowds, Target is only accepting online orders for the pack. Moreover, the store is also not delivering orders to customers’ homes. Players will have to go to stores near them and pick up their pack of Animal Crossing: New Horizons Sanrio Amiibo cards.

Each Target store will only stock 70 packs of cards. Therefore, with 2 as the limit, only around 35 players will be able to get the cards from each store. The online sales will start on Friday, March 26 at 8 AM CT, so players can log in as soon as possible and order their set of cards.
