Bowser?

While a Bowser amiibo figurine hasn't been shown physically yet, gameplay in the trailer shows Bowser with the "FP" marker floating above him, which is indicative of an amiibo character. Here's a direct link- http://youtu.be/odUjMhc6YgU?t=2m22s

I think this might be worth mentioning somewhere. - Burb

Multiple Amiibo fights?

We know they will happen, but how? It at least appears that only one figurine can connect to the game pad at a time, and the 3ds extension can only hold one, so how will more than one fight, could you press it on, take it off, press another one on and take it off, then do the same after the fight to save? How will this work? 98.112.97.173 16:40, 24 June 2014 (EDT)

About Training

So will there be a way to get your Amiibo out of "training mode" so it doesn't learn your friend's moves when battling a friend

Compatability

Do you think we should do a chart for which Amiibos work with which games? Guybrush20X6 (talk) 08:48, 7 November 2014 (EST)

It's a tough call. It wouldn't be that difficult to do at this point given how few games are amiibo compatible, but it could get rather unwieldy in the future (especially for characters like Mario and Link). Miles (talk) 09:33, 7 November 2014 (EST)

amiibos by themselves aren't really a Smash Bros. property - yeah, all the ones we have so far are Smashers in their SSB4 artwork pose, but I expect in future to see ones for other characters. So I don't think it's in our scope to even list amiibos that don't work with a Smash Bros. game. Toomai Glittershine The Obfuscating 13:11, 7 November 2014 (EST)

Wave 4

According to MarioWiki, certain characters (Mega Man, Sonic, and Shulk, as well as Dedede and Meta Knight outside of Japan) listed here as part of Wave 3 are actually Wave 4. Can someone check this? ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 21:56, 11 November 2014 (EST)

According to IGN, Shulk, Mega Man, and Sonic will be released in February 2015, whereas the rest will be released in January. I'm not exactly sure if it's "wave 4", because each wave contains about 10 amiibo figures and this only contains 3, but do what you want with that information. Rtzxy Reflect! 22:06, 11 November 2014 (EST)

I'd go by the Japanese order of release, with all 10 being released in January (Even though we're not a Japanese wiki we should use this order since they're not region locked). Laikue (talk | contribs) 22:11, 11 November 2014 (EST)

All amiibo release in February in America; the dates I'm describing above is for Japan, not America, so, according to IGN, not all amiibo will release in Japan in January. I may be wrong, though; I don't know how reliable IGN is, so… Rtzxy Reflect! 22:18, 11 November 2014 (EST)

http://www.siliconera.com/2014/11/26/story-fox-amiibo-nearly-won-super-smash-bros-tournament/#qjx8ujDizKh3D4Lb.01 Worth noting somewhere? 72.105.2.8 14:30, 2 December 2014 (EST)

So...

This could be true. BlueStreak 19:55, 6 December 2014 (EST)

That, at the moment, is a rumor, so we can't put it into the article just yet, if at all if it turns out to be false. Rtzxy Reflect! 20:19, 6 December 2014 (EST)

I don't see why they'd discontinue them. Either way, it's a rumor. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 20:22, 6 December 2014 (EST)

Myth busted. Move along now.

Damage multiplier at Lv. 50

Should there be more details of the boosts to damage and anything else that amiibos get at Lv. 50, like 1.5x to attack? It seems like it's an important aspect of training them. 70.48.100.134 22:37, 7 December 2014 (EST)

I own two amiibo, and it seems like they don't gain any physical boosts until you feed them equipment or change their specials. The Arnge I'm no rubble monkey! 22:43, 9 December 2014 (EST)

There have apparently been various tests done on SmashBoards that show that even amiibos who are not fed any equipment or customized still get boosts to its stats when it reaches higher levels like here. 70.55.34.236 23:31, 10 December 2014 (EST)

Notability of defects

While I think the dual-cannon Samus is notable, I don't really think any of the subsequent defects are, as they're really just running off the hype the Samus generated instead of their own. I think we should trim it down to something like "This sparked several more auctions on other amiibo with various defects". Toomai Glittershine The Riotous 22:23, 9 December 2014 (EST)

I agree. The amount of amiibo defects is bound to increase. As they are included, I can see the page becoming overly clogged with specific amiibos that all have their defects. The Arnge I'm no rubble monkey! 22:29, 9 December 2014 (EST)

So, is it good to edit the page now that the topic has technically been discussed? Or do we need more users' approval? The Arnge I'm no rubble monkey! 22:40, 9 December 2014 (EST)

I say we do edit it, but we at least make links to pages about other defective amiibos. BlueStreak 07:22, 10 December 2014 (EST)

Capitalisation

Wikipedia doesn't follow Nintendo's lowercase "a" stylisation; I think we should have the same courtesy. Plus, SmashWiki is not official. RickTommy 18:18, 16 December 2014 (EST)
