amiibo Official General Discussion

Which Amiibo did you get?

There are a few details that intrigued me from the amiibo website of Nintendo of Europe and Japan in terms of game compatibility.

Dr. Mario amiibo is basically treated as a Mario amiibo in every game that supports the latter, yet he will be read as Dr. Mario in the Super Smash Bros. 4. The one exception to the rule is that the Japan-only One Piece Super Grand Battle X isn't compatible with this amiibo at all.

The different colored Yarn Yoshi amiibo will not only trigger the extra features from Yoshi's Woolly World, but is also compatible with any game supporting both the Smash and Super Mario versions of Yoshi, with the exception of being incompatible with Japan-only One Piece Super Grand Battle X.


If you don't care about One Piece Super Grand Battle X, then the 3 Yarn Yoshi colors are basically a better version of the existing Smash and Super Mario variations of Yoshi in terms of functionality, while Dr. Mario is just another Mario amiibo outside of Super Smash Bros. 4.

I am quite sure of it that the Yoshi amiibo from the Smash and Mario collection will work with Yoshi's Woolly World though.

Common sense normally made us think that way, but I haven't seen both NOE and NOJ saying that the Smash and Super Mario variations of Yoshi is compatible with Yoshi's Woolly World. Meanwhile, Nintendo of America's amiibo website has nothing to say about Yoshi's Woolly World, and the Yarn Yoshi amiibo aren't even mentioned.

That is odd because normally the Eu sites are updated extremely late, last time when the Ness wave was announced the site was still not updated after a month! But i am sure of it because it would make no sense that the Yarn Yoshi amiibo would be compatible with smash and the Smash Yoshi amiibo would not be compatible with Yoshi's Woolly World. I know that Nintendo won't do that because it would decrease sales for Yoshi's Woolly World because amiibo functionality will add another reason to buy the game. People like me, can not afford a second Yoshi amiibo but i do want a game to use it so i would buy Woolly World and i am serious about this, i will not buy the game if i can not use my Yoshi amiibo for it.

Omg Zelda is rare here in The Netherlands, i am so happy that i bought her on release, she is literally nowhere to be found! The only ones we see a lot here are: Mario, Peach, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Pikachu, Samus and Fox. We see Luigi sometimes too along with Sonic and Mega Man if you are lucky but Sonic and Mega Man are there because they released not too long ago (They will be gone when wave 5 comes in) and Luigi always come in little numbers, like 2 or 3 per store.

Zelda shouldn't find out about this, or Nintendo's going to have to make more.

I just found the gif and I had to post it somewhere, this seemed to be the best place.
 
To be honest, I'm just as confused about the UK, I watched the US direct so I guess the Amiibo dates are different for the UK?

Wait so does the US get wave 4 in April or May?

The only thing that I know for sure is that April 24th will be the release for Ness, Lucina, Robin, Wario, Charizard and Pac-Man and May 29th will be the release of Jigglypuff and Greninja in the UK whereas America, I think, are getting all of those amiibo released in one set on May 29th.
I could be wrong here, but I am just going on what dates I have seen on UK retailer sites and US retailer sites.

Talking of Wave 4...
Ness and Pac-Man have been preordered by me since Jan 21, 2015, Lucina and Robin since Jan 22, 2015, Charizard since Jan 25, 2015 and Wario since Feb 1, 2015. That is quite a long time to have some amiibo preordered considering they are April's amiibo in the UK...

Damn really? Why haven't much websites had Ness and such pre-orderable if the date isn't far from now?
Well I hope GAME get their gear up soon, we need Ness <:I

I could be wrong, and I certainly hope that I am, but I do think that Ness might have already completely sold out since January, maybe early February...
 
If anyone wants a Mega Man, he's on Gamestop right now. Sold out everywhere else lol
 
and just put down a preorder for Japanese (rerelease in most, if not all, cases I believe) versions of

Lucina
Ness
Pit
Robin
Rosalina


July's gonna be insane for amiibos for me

Just alerted my brother on that, thanks for the info, Jason.

Not a problem. I don't want to break my promise to everyone about not posting my amiibo collection and so I will just list what I have managed to acquire ONCE below on this thread and then not again unless I manage to get Dr. Mario, Bowser Jr, Olimar, Lucas and Mewtwo.

Green Yarn Yoshi - ShopTo.net
Light Blue Yarn Yoshi - ShopTo.net
Pink Yarn Yoshi - ShopTo.net
Yarn Yoshi Triple Pack - GAME.co.uk

Now I will only post alerts of other amiibo and the occasional preorder as and when I make them like I did above.

EDIT: If I did manage to grab Dr. Mario, Bowser Jr, Olimar, Lucas and Mewtwo, I should have every single amiibo from the Super Smash Bros. Collection.

EDIT #2: I am mistaken... I would still need to preorder Mr. Game and Watch, R.O.B, Falco and Duck Hunt Duo (Duck Hunt in America)
