Most of the first wave of amiibo for Super Smash Bros. 4, as seen at E3 2014.

amiibo (アミーボ, amiibo) are a line of interactive figurines and cards available for usage with the Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo Switch[1] systems. By scanning an amiibo with near field communication technology, players can receive various effects in games.

For the Wii U, amiibo are scanned using the Wii U GamePad. New Nintendo 3DS models can directly scan amiibo; older Nintendo 3DS models require an NFC adapter to scan them.[2] For the Nintendo Switch, amiibo are scanned on either the right Joy-Con or the Pro Controller.

While the concept of figurines using NFC technology to interact with the Wii U was previously explored with Pokémon Rumble U, Super Smash Bros. 4 was the first game to feature the amiibo branding, acting as the debut and flagship title for the line.

As of September 2016, Nintendo reports that 39 million amiibo figurines have been sold, along with 30.6 million amiibo cards.[3]

Function in the Super Smash Bros. series

Main article: Figure Player

Super Smash Bros. series amiibo figures for every character in Super Smash Bros. 4 have been released, with amiibo figures for all characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate either already released or planned for future release. Some alternate costumes, such as male and female Corrin, have separate amiibo available; others, such as Alph for Olimar, do not.

In Super Smash Bros. 4, amiibo figures function as Figure Players. A Figure Player is a computer-controlled character whose behavior and customizations are saved to the amiibo figure. The Figure Player learns from the fighters it fights against, leveling up in the process (up to level 50). Figure Players can be fed equipment to boost their stats.

Any amiibo figure corresponding to a playable character may be used, not just the ones released in the Super Smash Bros. amiibo series; however, amiibo cards cannot. Figure Players can be used on any copy of the game (even if the character has not been unlocked or downloaded).

While Super Smash Bros. for Wii U natively supports amiibo, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS was unable to do so at launch. Version 1.0.5, released on February 9th, 2015, added support for scanning amiibo if the game is played on a New Nintendo 3DS or New Nintendo 2DS, while version 1.0.8, released on June 14th, 2015, added support for an external NFC reader/writer accessory, enabling support for earlier 3DS and 2DS models. The user must have one of these pieces of hardware to use amiibo with the 3DS version.

amiibo are not required to unlock any characters or other features in the games—they are completely optional for playing both versions.[4]

Owing to Figure Players' ability to be "trained" and used on other consoles, amiibo tournaments have become a minor side-event at some Smash 4 tournaments.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

amiibo compatibility returns in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. amiibo figures that represent playable characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate can be used as Figure Players, while amiibo that represent non-fighter spirits can instead be used to obtain those spirits.

Any amiibo figure corresponding to a playable character may be used as a Figure Player, not just the ones released in the Super Smash Bros. amiibo series; however, amiibo cards cannot. Figure Player data from Super Smash Bros. 4 can be converted for use in Ultimate, but once it is converted, the data can no longer be used in Super Smash Bros. 4. As Charizard was added back into Pokémon Trainer's team, a Charizard amiibo will scan as Pokémon Trainer with Charizard as the starting Pokémon.

Like in Super Smash Bros. 4, Figure Players function as computer-controlled opponents that learn from their opponents. However, it is now possible to disable their ability to learn. Figure Players can inherit up to three support spirits, permanently consuming them in order to gain their skills, having access to these skills even if spirits are disabled in the rules.

amiibo for characters from other series who are not playable in the game will grant a reward: Gold, Spirit Points, or a spirit corresponding to the character scanned. However, only one reward will be granted per amiibo.

Sales

Over 710,000 amiibo from Wave 1 were sold prior to the introduction of Wave 2, with Nintendo also stating that sales were approximately equal to those of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.[9] amiibo of Link were said to be the most popular, with Mario and Pikachu being the second and third most popular, respectively. At the end of 2014, it was announced that amiibo had outsold Super Smash Bros. for Wii U by a factor of at least two to one, with over 2.6 million figurines being sold [10]; a later quarterly report from Nintendo claimed that over 5.7 million amiibo were shipped worldwide.

Demand for some amiibo far exceeded supply, leading to supply shortages. Pre-orders for Rosalina & Luma broke sales records for Target, with the figurines selling out in only 35 minutes.[11] amiibo from wave 4 caused such huge demand that the web servers for GameStop crashed when pre-orders became available[12]. GameStop also sold out of pre-orders for all Wave 4 amiibo in less than five hours.[13]

Trivia

  • Originally at launch, Shulk's amiibo was exclusive to GameStop in North America, the same store his game, Xenoblade Chronicles, was exclusive to in its North American release.
  • The word "new" in the New Nintendo 3DS logo is stylized similarly to the amiibo logo.
    • The font itself is the Bauhaus 93 font, which is also used in many of the games in the Super Mario Bros. series.
  • The R.O.B., Cloud, Corrin, and Bayonetta amiibo are currently the only amiibo to have different versions in the Smash line.
    • The R.O.B. amiibo is the only amiibo with multiple versions featuring the same pose, and the only one who doesn't default to an alternate costume.
    • The Cloud and Bayonetta amiibo are the only amiibo with multiple versions featuring different costumes.
    • The Corrin amiibo is the only amiibo to have male and female versions.
  • Mr. Game & Watch's amiibo is the only one to come with multiple unique poses. One is based on his official SSB4 artwork, as are other amiibo; others feature his parachute from Fire, getting a 9 using Judge, and a bell-ringing pose resembling his side taunt and artwork pose from Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
    • Amongst his four poses, the Judge pose is the only one that was not used as an in-game trophy pose for Melee (which didn't use any), Brawl (which used the bell pose) and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (which used the artwork and parachute poses).
  • Mewtwo's amiibo released in Europe on October 23rd, 2015, one year to the day after it was confirmed to be a downloadable character during the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U: 50-Fact Extravaganza.
  • Since Pokémon Rumble U can use anything with NFC technology to briefly summon a random helper Pokémon, it incidentally supports all amiibo. Conversely, the Rumble U figures do not have any functionality in Super Smash Bros..
  • If the player feeds an amiibo equipment, and then exits the amiibo menus without saving the changes to the amiibo, that equipment will disappear anyway. The only way to get it back is to quit the game without letting the game save.
  • Isabelle, Inkling, Daisy, Chrom and Young Link are the only playable characters with amiibo released before their respective Super Smash Bros. series amiibo; as such, they have amiibo usable in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that predate the release of their actual Smash amiibo.
  • Mega Man is the only third party fighter to have an amiibo outside the Super Smash Bros. series.
  • Pikachu's Detective Pikachu amiibo is not compatible with Smash 4, and as such is the only amiibo figure to depict a Smash character to not have any functionality in Smash.
    • However, Detective Pikachu is a spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and the Detective Pikachu amiibo does grant this spirit in-game.
    • amiibo cards are also not compatible with Smash 4, so while Mewtwo, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Yoshi, and all Mario series characters except Dr. Mario have cards, they will not work.
  • Certain amiibo that show characters in an alternate costume will have their Figure Player default to that costume. This includes the "Player 2" versions of Smash Bros amiibo, but also amiibo from other lines such as Inkling Boy, Isabelle in her winter jacket, and Link in his Tunic of the Wild for the Link’s Awakening figure. Ike's amiibo defaults to his alternate costume in Ultimate; as such, there is no Ike amiibo that defaults to his default costume.
    • Of these, the Tunic of the Wild and Isabelle's winter jacket are the only outfits that don’t have their own spirits, with the Tunic of the Wild also being a completely different character from what is depicted through the amiibo.
  • Link, Samus and Peach do not have amiibo based on their Ultimate renders, but have non-Smash amiibo based on the renders used for their Fighter spirits.
    • Link is the only character who does not have a Smash amiibo based on his Ultimate design, but who has a non-Smash amiibo (from the The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild line) that represents the design and incarnation used for him in Ultimate.
    • Due to their relative lack of design changes from SSB4 to Ultimate, Samus and Peach have amiibo that can be said to represent both their Ultimate in-game designs (albeit in different poses) and their Fighter Spirits.
  • Timmy and Tommy is the only master spirit which can be obtained via amiibo.
  • Some Ultimate-era reprints of SSB4 amiibo, such as Samus, Bowser and Mewtwo, have more saturated colors to possibly better match their Ultimate designs.
  • Dr. Mario, Bowser Jr., and Piranha Plant are the only playable characters in the Mario series to not have an amiibo in the Mario amiibo series.
    • If sub-universes also count (Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Wario), King K. Rool would also apply.
    • In Mario Party Star Rush, Bowser Jr. has a model of a Mario series amiibo in Mario Shuffle mode when being played as, though no physical version of it has released yet. Incidentally, Mario Party 10 has models of Mario series Rosalina, Wario and Donkey Kong in amiibo party mode when being played as, although their physical versions weren't released until a year and a half later.
