''This article is about the amiibo figures appearance on [[Wii U]], [[Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Nintendo Switch]] systems. For other uses, see [[Figure Player]].''

'''amiibo''' ({{ja|アミーボ|Amībo}}, ''amiibo'') is a line of [[Nintendo]] figures designed for use with the [[Wii U]], [[Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Nintendo Switch]] systems. ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' have been shown to be compatible with these figurines.
−
A player of either game can place an Amiibo figurine on the bottom left side of the Wii U Gamepad, and the Amiibo will be able to fight against the player or assist them in battles. For 3DS use, the player is able to buy an add-on to use Amiibo (or simply place them on the touch screen on the [[Nintendo 3DS|New Nintendo 3DS]]/XL).

A player of either game can place an amiibo figurine on the bottom left side of the [[Wii U GamePad]], and the amiibo will be able to fight against the player or assist them in battles. For Nintendo 3DS use, the player is able to buy an add-on to use amiibo called the "Nintendo 3DS NFC Reader Writer" (or simply place them on the touch screen of the New Nintendo 3DS family). For Nintendo Switch use, the player has to place the amiibo figurine on the bottom side of Joy-Con R or at the top center of Pro Controller.

The characters spawned by Amiibo have been compared to [[CPU]]s, as they both use [[AI]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'', players can train the figurines to be able to learn new fighting tactics. The Amiibo character will adapt to your play-style learning how to play against you. For example, if you always taunt after landing a [[KO]], your Amiibo can learn to do the same; or if you always try to Meteor Smash opponents using risky tactics, the Amiibo will learn to do the same. In order words, the better the player, the better the Amiibo will become.

[[Figure Player]]s have often been compared to [[CPU]]s, as they both use [[AI]]. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', players can train the figurines to be able to learn new fighting tactics. The amiibo character will adapt to your play-style learning how to play against you. For example, if you always taunt after landing a [[KO]], your amiibo can learn to do the same; or if you always try to Meteor Smash opponents using risky tactics, the amiibo will learn to do the same, like to fake self-destructing. Your amiibo will do it (Or maybe not). In order words, the better the player, the better the amiibo will become. FPs at around level 40 or above by default stop taunting because they take out certain parts to make room for other techniques that could be learned. amiibo can still learn from you if you fight alongside it in [[Team Battle]]s.
   
 
They are also programmed to detect and use items depending on your usage patterns. For example, if you always play matches without items and introduce items to them, they will be "confused" and "unaware" on how to use them.

The Amiibo will use the same moveset, and have the same stats as the character they are modeled after. However, you are able to change their stats by "feeding" them items. This will change their base stats depending on what the piece of equipment is. The maximum level an Amiibo can reach is 50.
 +
The amiibo will use the moveset you've chosen for him/her at the start, and their stats will increase as they grow in level, meaning as they level up they'll take less damage/knockback and be able to deal more damage to you. As well as increased reaction time meaning they'll; attack, shield, dodge, and air-dodge faster. However, you are able to further change their stats by "feeding" them items. This will change their base stats depending on what the piece of equipment is. The maximum level an amiibo can reach is 50.

Amiibos' interaction with a game may be either [http://www.nintendo.com/amiibo/compatibility/ "Read/Write" or "Read Only"]. "Read/Write" will save certain game data directly to the Amiibo figure; however, each Amiibo can only hold data from one such game at time. If using the same Amiibo, new data from another "Read/Write" game can only be saved by deleting the data from the previous "Read/Write" game. ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'' is a "Read/Write" game. "Read Only" games scan the Amiibo to unlock additional in-game content and features, but do not save data to them. They can therefore be used repeatedly and on multiple "Read Only" games without affecting the Amiibo's saved data. ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Hyrule Warriors'' are "Read Only" games. ''Mario Party 10'' has both "Read/Write" and "Read Only" capability, depending on which Amiibo are used.

===Mr. Game & Watch===
−
Mr. Game & Watch's character model is very thin to mimic his 2-D appearance, and so it has several variations that can be switched in and out of the base at any time. Its variations are Mr. Game & Watch's [[Judge]] pose with him striking a number 9, his parachute pose and his trademark bell pose which was his profile pic pose for his two predecessors.

===Mii Fighter===

When first scanned, the player can choose a Mii Fighter they've created to become the Figure Player. Once registered, the player can fully customize the Mii, like with regular Mii Fighters. The fighter's outfit, headgear, moveset, voice, and color can be customized normally. Once a Mii is selected, however, it cannot be changed unless the amiibo's game data is reset.

Each version of the Mii Fighter comes as their default appearance, but when they are read into the game, the player can customize their appearance and moveset as with regular Mii Fighters.

[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]], in addition to all previous Smash Bros. series amiibo, it also supports any other non-Smash Bros. amiibo of the fighters. These also include any amiibo related to game franchises represented in it (except most of the amiibo cards). Scanning these amiibo will unlock their respective characters' spirits in the game. Only one spirit can be obtained from each amiibo (including duplicates), except Timmy & Tommy as they exist as a master spirit.

This article is about the amiibo figures appearance on Wii U, Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch systems. For other uses, see Figure Player.

amiibo (アミーボ, amiibo) is a line of Nintendo figures designed for use with the Wii U, Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch systems. Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate have been shown to be compatible with these figurines.

A player of either game can place an amiibo figurine on the bottom left side of the Wii U GamePad, and the amiibo will be able to fight against the player or assist them in battles. For Nintendo 3DS use, the player is able to buy an add-on to use amiibo called the "Nintendo 3DS NFC Reader Writer" (or simply place them on the touch screen of the New Nintendo 3DS family). For Nintendo Switch use, the player has to place the amiibo figurine on the bottom side of Joy-Con R or at the top center of Pro Controller.

Mechanics

Figure Players have often been compared to CPUs, as they both use AI. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, players can train the figurines to be able to learn new fighting tactics. The amiibo character will adapt to your play-style learning how to play against you. For example, if you always taunt after landing a KO, your amiibo can learn to do the same; or if you always try to Meteor Smash opponents using risky tactics, the amiibo will learn to do the same, like to fake self-destructing. Your amiibo will do it (Or maybe not). In order words, the better the player, the better the amiibo will become. FPs at around level 40 or above by default stop taunting because they take out certain parts to make room for other techniques that could be learned. amiibo can still learn from you if you fight alongside it in Team Battles.

They are also programmed to detect and use items depending on your usage patterns. For example, if you always play matches without items and introduce items to them, they will be "confused" and "unaware" on how to use them.

The amiibo will use the moveset you've chosen for him/her at the start, and their stats will increase as they grow in level, meaning as they level up they'll take less damage/knockback and be able to deal more damage to you. As well as increased reaction time meaning they'll; attack, shield, dodge, and air-dodge faster. However, you are able to further change their stats by "feeding" them items. This will change their base stats depending on what the piece of equipment is. The maximum level an amiibo can reach is 50.

amiibo interaction with a game may be either "Read/Write" or "Read Only". "Read/Write" will save certain game data directly to the amiibo figure; however, each amiibo can only hold data from one such game at a time. If using the same amiibo, new data from another "Read/Write" game can only be saved by deleting the data from the previous "Read/Write" game. Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are "Read/Write" games.

"Read Only" games scan the amiibo to unlock additional in-game content and features, but do not save data to them. They can, therefore, be used repeatedly and on multiple "Read Only" games without affecting the amiibo saved data. Mario Kart 8 and Hyrule Warriors are "Read Only" games. Mario Party 10 has both "Read/Write" and "Read Only" capability, depending on which amiibo are used.

Future

There are currently plans to release amiibo figures for Pyra/Mythra and Sora.

Super Mario series

The Super Mario line of amiibo function the same as the Super Smash Bros. line in the game as long as you are using a figure that has a corresponding fighter. They were released on March 20th, 2015 to coincide with the release of Mario Party 10. So far the only amiibo figures that won't work with Super Smash Bros.for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U is Toad, Goomba, Koopa Troopa, Boo, Daisy, and Waluigi. A Silver Mario amiibo was released on May 29, 2015, while the Gold Mario amiibo was originally a Walmart exclusive, but later in 2016, some were restocked at retailers such as GameStop.

Yoshi's Woolly World series

Similar to the Super Mario line of amiibo, you can use any of your Yarn Yoshi amiibo in the Super Smash Bros. game and it will function the same as a regular Yoshi amiibo.

Skylanders Superchargers series

These series includes four Skylanders being Hammer Slam Bowser and Turbo Charge Donkey Kong along with their Dark forms. However, these two are special in that if their bases are twisted, they can enter amiibo mode and can be used for any game, including Super Smash Bros., which is compatible with a Donkey Kong and Bowser amiibo.

30th Anniversary - Mario series

This series includes two amiibo. They are 30th Anniversary Mario Classic Color and 30th Anniversary Mario Modern Color. They can be used for any game, including Super Smash Bros., which is compatible with a Mario amiibo.

Mega Man - Gold Edition

Gold Mega Man amiibo was revealed during the 11/12 direct. It can be used for any game, including Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, which is compatible with a Mega Man amiibo. It was later confirmed that it's a part of the Super Smash Bros. amiibo lineup.

Kirby series

The amiibo from the Kirby series were announced on the Nintendo Direct - 3.3.2016, and some were shown to be compatible with Kirby: Planet Robobot, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, and more. The Kirby, King Dedede and Meta Knight amiibo figures are compatible with Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, and also Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

30th Anniversary - The Legend of Zelda series

This series includes 7 amiibo figures. The first four were are revealed during the Nintendo 3DS Direct - 9.1.2016. The Link - Ocarina of Time amiibo can't be used with Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, but it is compatible with Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Three more Link amiibo figures were announced during the 4.12.17 Nintendo Direct and they're each from; Majora's Mask, Skyward Sword, and Twilight Princess. As well as the new 3 amiibo figures being compatible with Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. Best Buy announced that they'll be exclusively selling the Link - Majora's Mask amiibo, Link - Skyward Sword amiibo for Amazon, and Link -Twilight Princess being exclusive to Gamestop.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series

The amiibo from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series were announced on the 9.1.2016 Nintendo Direct, but 1 out of 5 of them are compatible with both Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, that being the Zelda amiibo figure. Both Link (Archer) and Link (Rider) amiibo figures are compatible with Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, but not with Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Customizable amiibo

Amiibo game-watch

Some amiibo have special features which others don't have.

Mr. Game & Watch

Mr. Game & Watch's character model is very thin to mimic his 2-D appearance, and so it has several variations that can be switched in and out of the base at any time. Its variations are Mr. Game & Watch's Judge pose with him striking a number 9, his parachute pose and his trademark bell pose which was his render pose for his two predecessors.

Mii Fighter

When first scanned, the player can choose a Mii Fighter they've created to become the Figure Player. Once registered, the player can fully customize the Mii, like with regular Mii Fighters. The fighter's outfit, headgear, moveset, voice, and color can be customized normally. Once a Mii is selected, however, it cannot be changed unless the amiibo's game data is reset.

R.O.B.

The R.O.B. Figure is different based on the region he is from. His amiibo colors match his regional artwork. Famicom R.O.B. was shown to be released in North America as well as the NES Color already released.

amiibo compatibility in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, in addition to all previous Smash Bros. series amiibo, it also supports any other non-Smash Bros. amiibo of the fighters. These also include any amiibo related to game franchises represented in it (except most of the amiibo cards). Scanning these amiibo will unlock their respective characters' spirits in the game. Only one spirit can be obtained from each amiibo (including duplicates), except Timmy & Tommy as they exist as a master spirit.
