Posted February 6, 2015 Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is to utilise the Shulk amiibo. Trying to work out how.It replaces all of Shulk's in-game dialogue with "I'm really feeling it!", even in the cutscenes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 9, 2015 Game just cancelled my Shulk amiibo order I placed a good amount of time ago, fuckers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nintendo UK Store will undoubtedly do a restock on launch day so keep your eye on there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 10, 2015 Always buy from Nintendo UK store I do, but they're usually a little later than others to get them up, and they sell out quickly so I pick some scragends from game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 13, 2015 The (not yet announced) DK, Rosalina and Wario amiibo from the Super Mario Series line are spotted in new Mario Party 10 screens, here: http://m.ign.com/articles/2015/02/13/mario-party-10-site-reveals-new-wario-rosalina-and-donkey-kong-amiibo I'm still not sold on the Super Mario series, they look a little bland to me. I find the smash line a lot more imaginative :awesome: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 13, 2015 I much prefer that Wario amiibo to the Smash one. The Rosalina one though is nothing without her Luma. Though obviously I'll still buy all three. Damn you Nintendo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 13, 2015 Nope... sticking to my 'no doubles on display' rule despite preferring retro styled Wario. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 14, 2015 Old-school Wario is cool, but WarioWare Wario is AWESOME!! :awesome: So yeah, Smash Bros. Wario amiibo for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 14, 2015 1 ups is the last thing you need in toad though I guess what else could they have done... mario/luigi/peach etc. Could have had their own little treasure hunts. But 1ups is far easier and cheaper to implement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think anything could be easier/cheaper than replacing the "Pixel Toad" with pixel versions of all other amiibo. But Nintendo probably think keeping that feature exclusive to the Toad amiibo will help it sell... It won't though. Not to me anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to me anyway. scan amiibo = lives +1 Having to find a different pixel art character could be done I suppose, but it would be better to have those characters appear in a different place.. afaik the toad pixel art will always remain in the same place in a level. If it moves each time, then sure I agree they should have allowed pixel art to include all mario series amiibo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) amiibo sales broken down per region. US & Canada = 63% Europe = 23% Japan = 11% Australia = 3% Which reaffirms my previously stated view that Japan aren't as interested in amiibo. Nintendo are to bundle NES/SNES/Wii U games with amiibo. They will only be demos and will only be available to play for a certain limited period of time. Link is the most popular amiibo worldwide everywhere except Australia. Mario is the number 1 there. amiibo with the highest sell-through rate: US = Marth JPN = Captain Falcon EUR = Little Mac Australia = Ike There's a pile of info coming through regarding amiibo. Iwata has said he didn't expect the scalper situation. This is all coming from the rescheduled investor meeting. The top 10 best selling amiibo per region. http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/150217/index.html Edited February 17, 2015 by Wii Automerged Doublepost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2015 Interesting facts, thanks for that @Wii ! I guess a start for a solution for the scalper situation might be: manufacture the same total for every amiibo for the first two months. That way it takes longer for scalpers to figure out which amiibo will be more sought after. It's really frustrating... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2015 They did say they're planning to make more!! I guess it's all just much more popular than they though it would be. I presume the NES/SNES games will just be the masterpieces from Smash Bros but in a specific app, which would be disappointing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
