Posted August 21, 2015 £20-30 for the same single player missions just with a different weapon? I think it makes more sense to consider the game to be £30 and the amiibo's unlocking minor challenge missions. I got the game without amiibo for £20. It doesn't make sense to me to pay £10 extra for the game to make me feel the amiibos cost me less than they actually would... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 23, 2015 Well, I'm starting to hear more about Amiiqo lately, any one here both one or interested? Sounds like it'll be somewhat future proof, not exactly sure how Nintendo can counteract it but it'll be pretty handy to circumvent what essentially is figure-locked dlc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 24, 2015 to be honest i'm all for it, with special editions coming with Amiibo's that aren't sold separately, which are in limited numbers/cost prohibitive, it provides an alternative Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 24, 2015 I'm sort of perversely enjoying the spectacle of amiibo as it evolves into one huge, morbid social experiment to discover just how far they can go with it. It's quite entertaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 24, 2015 Remember this a few pages back... I wonder what's going on with Falco.. He's the only one of this wave I want! Delayed, so he can be bundled with Starfox Zero. I'm calling it now. Starfox Zero coming out November 20th Falco amiibo coming out November 20th Hmmm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 24, 2015 It's been nice to have had a bit of a quiet period without spending too much on these things! Back on the amiibo train this autumn, though - I've got my sights set on Falco, Chibi Robo, Nook, Isabelle and KK Slider before the end of the year...

Posted August 27, 2015 No way... https://twitter.com/GAMEBrighton/status/636926216642121728 ... the Shovel Knight Smash Bros rumour can't be real... surely? Can it!? Either way, that Amiibo looks real to me! Can't believe that Yacht Club Games managed to pull it off! That would be incredible! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) ... the Shovel Knight Smash Bros rumour can't be real... surely? The rumour of Shovel Knight in Smash was because the Amiibo existed. If anything, this packaging suggests that Shovel Knight isn't in Smash Bros. Edit: Also, the chances of a Yooka-Laylee Amiibo just shot up.

Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) The rumour of Shovel Knight in Smash was because the Amiibo existed. If anything, this packaging suggests that Shovel Knight isn't in Smash Bros. Yeah I suppose, but I can't imagine it JUST being used for Shovel Knight right now (I know that it's due to be used in future YCG games, but I would imagine that it wouldn't be put out JUST to be used in Shovel Knight right now...) Still, Shovel Knight as the first 3rd Party Amiibo? Crazy! Can't believe that YCG could get it pulled off! What a success for them!! Also, the chances of a Yooka-Laylee Amiibo just shot up. If this is real, then I'd say it's almost a dead cert. No way would both parties not be chomping at the bit for it! Edit: Tweet has been deleted, so it's almost certainly real! Congrats to Yacht Club Games!! Can't believe that you guys made it happen!
