Aside from unlocking some features from select games, Iwata is planning to give amiibo one more purpose in the first half of 2015: unlocking a time-based trial of a NES/SNES game for Wii U owners. For those who don't know which characters that have at least one game from one of the two retro consoles, I'll quickly jot down a list of potential compatible amiibo that are either available or announced:
- Mario
- Peach
- Yoshi
- Link
- Kirby
- Donkey Kong
- Samus
- Marth
- Zelda
- Diddy Kong
- Luigi
- Little Mac
- Pit
- Captain Falcon
- Bowser
- Toon Link
- Mega Man
- King Dedede
- Meta Knight
- Ness
- Wario
- Pac-Man
- Toad
Keep in mind, this list purely came from my speculation.

Please be ****ty Mario Party Amiibo.
From the pictures posted there, they're obviously customized Smash Bros. amiibo. Not sure if Nintendo are the ones releasing them. They look all right, but I could make them myself with some patience.http://www.reddit.com/r/amiibo/comments/2w8bbr/cosmic_and_metal_mario_amiibo_coming_to_tru/
