Touch, watch and connect to your games with Nintendo's new range of interactive figures! Discover amiibo, a brand new way to interact with your favourite Nintendo characters and games. If you touch your Wii U GamePad's NFC touch point with the figure while playing certain games, data on the chip will be transferred into the game and used in a range of ways. As you play, your figure's data will also be updated, so keep playing to make your amiibo unique!
A living embodiment of gross, this villain hates Mario and loves money. He claims to have known Mario since childhood, but who can tell if that’s true? Aside from adventuring, he's also the chairman of game maker WarioWare, Inc. He can also store up his trademark Wario Waft for explosive results in the Super Smash Bros. games. Did we mention he's gross?
See your amiibo battle and watch it grow: In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U you can transfer the data from your amiibo so it can appear in the game and fight for you. As your amiibo fights, it will develop its own unique attributes and skills, becoming stronger and learning new moves. You can even add your own twist to combat by customising special moves!
Connect to a wide range of games! In addition to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, you'll be able to use amiibo in a number of other games - and how they're used depends on the game! In the future, figures of a wide variety of characters from different franchises will be released.
amiibo support is currently planned for the following Wii U games
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
Mario Kart 8
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
Mario Party 10
Yoshi's Woolly World
Also compatible with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS: As well as working with Wii U, amiibo can also be used with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS via an accessory that is planned for release in 2015. Details about compatible software planned for Nintendo 3DS will be announced in the future.
