Topic: Worst Amiibo Useage Ideas

I am wondering what people's worst Amiibo useage ideas are? Try to make them semi-realistic but I do want people to have fun with this.

My worst Amiibo Useage Idea would be a RPG where you can only level up by Scanning different Amiibo figures. Scan a Mario Amiibo go up a Level. Scan a Marth Amiibo go up a level. Without enough Amiibo you can't progress and without all Amiibo ever made you can't defeat the Final Boss... that would be terrible. Anyone else have an idea?

I think the worst usage of an amiibo is having them connected to your bank account and having to pay each time one is scanned. Or worse, just charged on a monthly subscription, whether you use it or not.

Maybe for a puzzle game have only one Amiibo be compatible with it. Then the only thing that Amiibo does is make a pixel version of the main character appear in each stage for you to find.

How about wait for it you can get 1 rupee in a LOZ game!!!

Wait that already happens -_-

Any online mode where each amiibo scanned gives the player doing it an extra computer controlled character.

(Think Smash but one player can be alone whereas the other player has them + 4 amiibo characters).

If a Fire Emblem game was designed so reclassing was absolutely required but could only be done via amiibo that would be pretty bad.

An EO style game where each amiibo gives you one step. The first floor alone would need about 50 different ones to clear.

@Edwin So, you rather have them connected to your bank account, like @shaneoh suggested, than to add a minigame to an existing game by owning said amiibo ? You must be one rich dude then.

@Pokefraker First off, the game youre talking about is not a "Legend of Zelda" game. But ill gift you 5 bucks if you find the title on your box cover
Secondly, whats wrong about it ? Scanning Link for the first time, grants you a new weapon type and thus, an entirely new playstyle. Every other Amiibo simply acts as a daily raffle.
You can scan a certain amount of Amiibos daily to win random ingame prices, from weapons to random amounts of rupees. If you gain only one, tough luck on your part, try again tomorrow.

Back on topic: I almost expected such an idea come up with the Mario Party 10 Amiibo boards. I was just waiting on "touch the amiibo to the gamepad to take a step with your board piece" A nice idea on paper, but with a scan delay of about a second, rolling 4d10 could take an awfull lot of time
Im glad they didnt come up with that

Oh it doesn't say Legend Of Zelda on the box?

An online Mario Strikers Charged game where the only way to get Star Players for your team is to scan Amiibo's (The number allowed is the whole team).

Something like Final Fantasy All the Bravest where the only way to win is to buy tons of Amiibo.

This

Worst Amiibo idea: Blank white screen. Scan an amiibo, and the character's name appear on the screen. That is all.

Scanning an Amiibo that puts a random 8-bit sprite hidden in the game.

Wow, people aren't having as much fun with this as I had hoped.

In a world where EA's iOS Dungeon Keeper exists it is not too much of a stretch for something pretty terrible to actually end up being a reality.

I want to hear terrible Ideas with it but people are just using this to complain about current useage.

A game where scanning an amiibo gives you minus points, and in some cases it's so much that you have to level up your characters all over again.

How about: if you scan an amiibo, then you would get an XBox One everytime. <shiver>Now that's horrifying.</shiver>

Unlocking pointless stuff with amiibo.

Everytime you scan an amiibo, SMTxFE (or was it the other way around?) gets delayed a week.

Every amiibo you scan makes Reggie's body more ready.
