What is an Amiibo?

If you want all the perks of using amiibos but don’t want to spend the money buying tons of figures you can get these nfc tags that work just as well at a fraction of the cost

I was wondering about how these work. Glad to know its like an NFC scan and not a special 1-time code. Meaning i can buy a bunch second hand for cheap, maybe.

Is there things you have to use an Amiibo to get; or is everything available in-game in some way?

One of the things i hated was Nintendo had content locked in games that required you to buy their game boy advance.

I think other games have the same amiibo feature depending which ones it is and what amiibo works on it

I’ve tried using a mario amiibo in Breath of the Wild (not yet in tears of the kingdom because I’m too lazy to even bother) mario gives you some different mushrooms and a chest I believe.

My wife bought me a couple Yoshis Wooly World figures. Yarn, stuffed animal figures. Just for decoration. Come to realize today, they are Amiibos! I can only use them if i have that game? I dont have Yoshis Wooly World, but I'm not opposed to it.

Seems like bokoblin is the best since it gives you premium meat

I have the same attachable case (only in purple)

Oh. Didn’t realise it was so gimmicky. Thought I might be missing out on something cool.

Wheni found out my switch could scan this shit i was so stoked is a feature that none of the other platforms have even pc.

So they are an over complicated NFC mixed with action figures.

[AmiiboDoctor]

yeah seriously what the heck is an amiibo

[marjoriebrown]

So can you use it multiple times and keep collecting the items or once you use it that’s it?

[HuzGamingYT]

In games like super smash bros ultimate, can you play as your amiibo or can you only play against it?

[newwave]

Pretty cool does it work on switch lites?

[AshTheDuke]

can it be used only once or several times?

[The.Truth]

So that yellow Mario amiibo. Can I use that for Mario odyssey on the switch?

[kolesto]

This thing on your ceiling looks like a fire hazard

[stanleykennedytuliao]

Can i use amiibo in all Nintendo switch games?
