Nintendo has announced that they will be introducing amiibo figures in Super Smash Bros on the Wii U. Wii U consoles recognise amiibo characters when they are touched to the GamePad. Smash Bros Wii U will be the first game to support amiibo characters and when you use one that character will appear in-game. The name amiibo is taken from ami (“friend” in French). These will be coming holiday 2014.
Nintendo : The most inovative company EVER.

Didn’t Disney and Activision do this already? I know skylanders had done well, I hope this works for Nintendo.
I must say those figurines are much cooler looking than I expected.
Amiibo doesn’t make a hell of a lot of sense as a name. I guess Amiigo is already a trademark. Oh well, this seems neat, the way they’re incorporated intrigues me.
I’m SO buying every figure they make. But……I want 2 of each, so I can open one and keep the other one in the packaging. But they’re probably going to be too expensive to buy two of each.
You do that to? I thought I was the only one
Link, Samus, Zelda, Pikachu, Palutena, Ganondorf, Pit, Sonic, Megaman, etc etc figurines, HERE I COME!!!
