Here's a Handy amiibo Compatibility Infographic 

I thought Bowser is compatible with Ace Combat too?

Anyway I need to get Wii Fit Trainer and Marth then for possible One Piece purchase.

Edit:
From the Tweet:
"You may notice that Bowser is missing from Ace Combat. This is because the plane is apparently a normal unlock in-game, not via amiibo."

Is it true that Kirby,Meta Knight and King Dedede can be used only once per day in Kirby and the rainbow curse? because is kind of disappointed.

Ordered Mario and Peach this week from Amazon, could only get Link before Christmas, for my son, I haven't touched Smash Bros. yet to make proper use of them, but I have enjoyed racing as my MJ Mii in the Link outfit

When was Zelda U confirmed to have amiibo support?

I truly hope "Ace Combat" is a New 3DS launch title in the west.

To many amiibo to little time, I took the decision yesterday to get rid of a couple and only keep the characters I like rather than "because they exist", with that in mind if your from UK and looking for Wii Fit Trainer or Marth I will be selling both (boxed).

To what extent has the Toon Link functionality been confirmed? It appears to be mentioned on the Japanese amiibo site but not the UK one.

So far amiibo functionality in games is really lame, this clearly isn't why they are selling.

I hadn't seen, er, Nico Samus before. That's genius.

Functionality is 2nd for me. I'm only interested in collecting the characters I really like.

@Inkling yeah, I can't remember either but I did hear something a little while ago, em, somewhere.

I have link and Zelda and will get toon link and ganon if there is one, just in case they are supported.

I prob dreamt it though so don't hold me to it.

I got Marth and I preordered Ike, but not for functionality and I don't see myself getting a lot more in the near future either.
If there were some more Fire Emblem or even Advance Wars ones, I'd probably get those, too. Basically I'm willing to buy anything half-way decent related to either IPs
Aside from that I'd love to see some Atlus IPs that are on Nintendo Systems get the amiibo treatment, how about SMTIV or Persona Q? I'd certainly go for those ...
Aside from that, I might get Shulk once I figure out where to get him in Europe .... Anyone know about this? Is it going to be a Gamestop exclusive in EU, too?

The Fit Trainer is not used enough. Where's the Yoga Pants and Tank Top outfit for Hyrule Warriors' Zelda that we all know should exist?

This cross-compatibility is surely nice and a great reward for those who already own one or a few of the amiibos, yet I think the for a lasting success Nintendo will need some game comparable to Skylanders or Disney Infinity In fact, the most logical step from a commercial perspective may have been to release SSB for free and let people use only these fighters whose amiibos they have, but of course that would have cause horrible, and justified, hatred from the fans. For the same reason, Nintendo cannot simply ground any existing series' title essentially on amiibo functionality. It can only be something entirely new, so that fans don't perceive it negatively. The question is if Nintendo has anything at hand for 2015... A new Animal Crossing may be a possible choice as far as existing series go, as it could easily include additional content related to almost any figure. But it doesn't seem so likely. A kind of sequel to Nintendo Land may be a possibility too, and could finally offer some true second-screen usage again. But... Well, I don't see something obvious coming. But if amiibos remain forever little more than gimmicks in the form of unlocking some skin or so (no matter how many games are compatible), the interest may fade soon enough.

@Quorthon

Haha, I was kinda thinking the same thing!

@Ryno - Ah, just the man and comment I was looking for. How many Nintendo IP characters does Nintendo own that they can make into amiibo and how many do you want? There are 700 Pokemon so that could take years, but besides those? Disney has about 80 years worth of movies plus Marvel and Staw Wars. Skylanders just keep making them up. amiibo seem more limited than limitless so I dont see how they can compete w/ their current in game functionality.

one piece mario is way too high

what about Captain Toad , are they gonna wait everyone done with the game to release the amiibo update -_-

@rjejr: First, let me say I hope your New Year's Eve and Day went well. I'm looking forward to when my kids are "old enough" to really enjoy New Year's Eve with them. Second, I need to get used to your new avatar. Now back to our 2nd favorite discussion, amiibo. I think one of things that gets mixed up with these particular amiibo is that they are the specifically the Smash Bros. line of amiibo. Zelda U, StarFox, XBX, the next Mario game, etc. might get their own line of figures so in that case I think amiibo is limitless. The fact that the Smash amiibo line works with other games, well I see that is a small bonus. I'm not arguing whether the Smash amiibo are "worth it" because that is up to each individual who is interested in spending $13.00 on a figurine of their favorite Nintendo character(s). The smash line of amiibo may continue on for many months but eventually they will get through all 49 characters and then I imagine they will produce other lines specific to their upcoming games. Yes, I have a Fox Smash amiibo and I would buy another amiibo of Fox that was part of the Star Fox amiibo line if available along with some other duplicates.

I'm suprised Wii sports club hasn't had amiibo support yet.

@dizzy_boy Same here. As well as Nintendo Land.
Both seem like obvious choices.

I seriously need info on the regular 3DS amiibo adapter as soon as possible. Already got 2 amiibo, but I really do need that adapter.

Glad everyone liked my chart! I wasn't expecting this to get posted on a Nintendo news site, haha. I will be updating this periodically as new amiibo are announced & new functionality/compatible games are announced.

Something I didn't include was the unintentional use of amiibo with Pokémon Rumble U. I don't know all the info about it, and I can't test myself. Probably gonna stick to official use though.

@Inkling -

This interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUkU6O4p7Lw&t=8m

Miyamoto says he can't discuss amiibo support with Zelda or Star Fox, but that they are planning something for them. The way Trinen says it kind of sounds like it will be more of a fun bonus and not very significant, though.

@lividd3ad -

As of right now, Toon Link appears to be compatible with anything Link is. Mario Kart & Hyrule Warriors recognize Link & Toon Link as the same character, so presumably (aside from SSB) this is the case with any game. So if you don't like the Link amiibo, you could feasibly skip him & get the Toon Link one with the same functionality. This isn't 100% confirmed, but seems to be the case.

@KillerGBH -

Yeah, that's driving me nuts.

Very useful, especially since Nintendo has been relatively quiet on 3DS Amiibo support.

@MoldyClay87 Great job, very nicely done.

Just wish Nintendo would release some information on availability of current amiibos that are out/coming out and if they'll re-supply them to stores (Marth, WFT, Villager, etc.). This chart is great, but if we can't get our hands on the amiibos to begin with, what's the point?

Kirby-Chopper looks pretty adorable.

I think Amiibo needs its own dedicated app where they all live as you bring them into your system. It could have some basic "free-to-play" style game mechanics. For example, you set your Amiibo to doing certain tasks, and can just leave them there, close the app, and check in later to see level up progress and direct them to do other tasks to level up other areas. It would be kind of like the Streetpass games for 3DS, in that it's a smaller game where progress takes a long period of time, but encourages bite-sized play sessions. As a bonus, you could see them hanging around in your Wii U system lobby with the Miiverse commenters, they could show up randomly alongside the Miis in Mii-based games like Wii Sports Club, and maybe even be playable avatars in those games. This would have the added bonus of acting as a sort of sales job for more full-featured Mario- or Nintendo-themed sports/party games.

Ultimately, I think we get some kind of larger scale Nintendo-Land-meets-Tomodachi-Life-type concept that is an entire game based on Amiibo support. For now, they'll ride out the initial sales wave without doing too much other than little bonuses, but eventually they will probably release figures for games beyond Smash Bros., and then they'll want to make some game that works with all Amiibo. Otherwise, customers may become confused as to which figures support which games.

Personally, I spent a couple of Christmas gift cards on 5 Amiibo (Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Link, and Samus: the top tier of Big N mascots). I think they're super cool and well-made, and I've had more fun with them in Smash Bros. than I thought I would. I also think the Mario Kart Mii suits are pretty dope, and I almost never used the Miis before I got the slick new suits. Looking forward to seeing what they do in Captain Toad.

Ooh, and also, once the New 3DS releases everywhere, you could put your Amiibo in your 3DS and level them up for whatever purpose by walking around with your 3DS, so you get Streepasses while upping your Amiibo's stats of whatever kind. Later, you put that data back onto your Amiibo figure itself for transfer back into the Wii U, or whatever game uses the Amiibo.

There's a lot you can do with the concept, and Streetpass is a great template for taking a weird bit of device functionality and making it interesting enough to keep coming back for more.

I have most of series 1 and if I'm honest I haven't used them that much but they look cool as hell sitting around my t.v

I wanted to get all the Amiibo that unlocked costumes in Mario Kart, and then the ones I really wanted just to have. With how difficult it is to get some of them, though, I'm starting to give up. I have 8 amiibo now, and they are all ones that I wanted, but there are still some I want that I can't get my hands on.

I got my Villager and Wii Fit Trainer. I'm happy.

@Ryno - Happy New Year to you too.

I do think Nintendo can keep making amiibo characters over and over again, and I'm sure they'll sell some, but it does seem like a limited endeavor. But I guess Nitnodo is just happy to sell what they sell, regardless of what the others do. They haven't really pushed Wii U.

Guess I'll need to pick up some extra Amiibos if Ace Combat is localised.

Though using Fox to unlock an Arwing and perhaps Samus a single-seat version of her Gunship a real missed opportunity.

I buy amiibo's because I enjoy the figures, the fact that they do stuff is a nice bonus.

I have always thought about whether they should include larger content such as levels or playable characters through certain amiibo but the problem with that is that people without that amiibo would likely complain that they can't access it without purchasing a somewhat expensive figurine. Either way I definitely want amiibo support to continue but on a larger scale than what we have seen because simply adding power ups that you can use once a day isn't all that special and I imagine most people probably won't even bother. Amiibo have tons of potential but as of yet it remains untapped, with exception of Smash which I think the amiibo integration is very cool in that game!

I really do like getting these figures. I just wish they'd be more available.

There's a Shiek amiibo? Since when?

With Captain Toad Treasure Tracker already released I hope that Nintendo will release some info on what The Amiibos do for it.

@thepeterwright
Wondering if u still have them???

I really wish Ambiios had more compatible titles and that all Ambiios could play on all compatible games. Example: Mario in Hyrule Warriors would be great or Pit in MK8.

@TwilightV I'd like to know since when was it confermed that both that Amiibo + Zelda actually did something other than random parts in HW... Could of sworn only the links did something!

@Dragun_gummy yup

@Uberchu Zelda gifts a 3-star or higher weapon once per day. Seems to be along the lines of what you already have unlocked. It's a nice bonus, but not a massive advantage. The Zelda figure is quite detailed, too.

Okay..what that chart seriously means for HW? Other amiibos give you rupees?

So basically Link, Toon Link, and Kirby are the choices that currently provide the most variety; while Mario, Luigi, Samus, Fox, Zelda, and Shiek are also good choices; and the compatability for Peach, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong is pretty decent.

@thepeterwright
Im super super interested i just live in the US D:
Would that be alright? Those disappeared within the first week they came out :/ id pay shipping

@BulbasaurusRex No, Yoshi is up there with Link due to compatibility with Yoshi's Woolly World and Mario Party 10.

@Dragun_gummy keeping it in the UK sorry buddy

@Finntendo Rupees or random 3-star or lower weapons. I get the occasional stash of materials, too.

@Vineleaf

Oh okay. Good to know. Haven't used other than Link there. DLC gave Dominion Rod to Zelda, I guess you can get that with amiibo, too.

they are going to add the amiibo to Capt Toad after I beat it...

Costumes, skins, whatever. I hope Mario Party 10 gives us special unlockable maps or mini-games that are themed after the character's world... namely Metroid.

wow I didn't expect third party games like ace combat 3D and that new one piece game to support amiibo. Then again these days Bandai-Namco and Nintendo are BFF's

@vitalemrecords exactly. I'm already halfway through the third chapter and have finished all the bonus stages...

@ryan3ds Smash 3DS will support amiibo... someday.

@ryan3ds -
As you can see in my chart, SSB, Ace Combat & One Piece on 3DS will all support amiibo. Currently, you can only do so with a New 3DS (Japan/Australia), but they're also releasing an adapter to wirelessly scan amiibo to the current 3DS models. Nintendo said details would be provided early 2015.

@vitalemrecords -
Hopefully they add themed stages, so it wouldn't even matter if you beat it. I want costumes as well, but they'll be useless if you beat it already. Considering their functionality wasn't ready at launch, I can only hope it will be something big.

@Finntendo -
Zelda's amiibo gives you the Dominion Rod if you have it via DLC. The idea is, the Zelda amiibo give you any Rank 3 weapon you have access to for that character. So if you don't own the TP DLC, Zelda will only give you Baton & Rapier drops.

The icon I put next to the non-Zelda amiibo is the Weapon bag, Rupees & Material bags.

@TwilightV -
Announced in November, been up for preorder a while now. Comes out within February.

@Uberchu -
Link's is the only one that does anything significant. Zelda & Sheik drop their own weapons.

Link/Toon Link gives you Spinner the first time, then gives you any Lv.3 Link weapon from then on.
Zelda, Sheik & presumably Ganondorf give you any Lv.3 weapon of that character.
Every other amiibo gives you any Lv.3 for ANYONE, rupees, and materials.

@BulbasaurusRex -
Yoshi is also compatible with Yoshi's Woolly World & Mario Party 10. I believe Peach, Mario & Luigi are also compatible with MP10. Maybe Bowser.

I did not include those lists in my chart because we don't know what they do yet. My chart is primarily a guide for what the amiibo do so you get a good idea of the content each figure provides. MP10 & YWW would just be figures & question marks, so I'll add them when we get news.

Nintendo really needs to release a game which is just for amiibos. While the in-game unlocks are nice, the only reason I have to buy them now is that they look nice. I have a ton of skylanders, but only 4 amiibos. If Nintendo released a game for amiibos, I`d probably get a few more.

I already beat Capt. Toad but would gladly beat it again if the amiibo features are good enough.

@rjejr @Ryno
Happy New Year. I'll probably be back to posting more now.
If you want an idea of how many Nintendo characters that could conceivably be amiibos in the future (leaving out pokemon which I think could be amiibo trading cards):
Take a look at just one Mario game, say Galaxy, and list all the enemies.
Now, look at all the Mario games and include the Paper Marios, RPG. you get the idea.
Now, how about all the variations of Link from different games and all those enemies and side characters. Metroid also has variations.
Plus, these things don't need to be character figurines and Nintendo is vocal about this.
The new Star Fox game (or an F-Zero) could have vehicle Amiibos.
I could see a line of retro amiibos with smaller pixel art (mostly flat but you can stand them up.) Cheap to sell but could go along with whatever retro stuff is coming in the future.
Oh, and how about game items? Some of the classics, like Blue Turtle Shell, Donkey Kong Hammer, the Mario mushrooms, Hook shot, etc. Their functions in games could be fun.
I need a chozo statue.
Then there are the new IPs right? Project STEAM, Splatoon. These have new interesting characters to play with.
Then, look at all the Nintendo trophies from all the Smash Bros. games to fill in the holes.

What they do with all this I don't know. But the apparent initial success means Nintendo is going to try many many avenues.

@sinalefa - I was actually going to hold off playing it until amiibo support but I couldnt resist any longer. 1 book down.

@aaronsullivan - Dont post more on my account, spend more time playing w/ your kids

I suppose there are a lot of amiibo they can make, but will they continue to sell out during the pre-order phase? I guess I should withold further judgement until after E3 and we see what follows up SSB figures. I'll be curios to see if the retail store sections get any bigger, the other 2 are out of control.

Right now my biggest problem is a DI addiction. I had $50 worth of figures in my Amazon cart this afternoon before I snapped out of it. They are still saved for later though w/ my kids birthday in 10 days. Prime membership means no rush. I'm spending too much time decorating my INterior. Nintendo needs a $10 amiibo home game so we can post pictures to Miiverse.

@rjejr We've been having fun but it's back to school and work and I'll have in between times to post again.

Having a little amiibo photo taker is a great idea for an app. They can just use all the models from SSBM and whip that up pretty fast. You could use the GamePad camera to put yourself in it, too. Or at least your mii.

Ugh, so tired of comparing sale prices for DI. lol.

I'm not sure how far Nintendo will go with Amiibo, but you bring up an interesting point that it fills out store shelf space. Along with that comes retail relevance. Having physical toys that integrate with the console might be the best marketing Nintendo did in 2014.

@rjejr

Happy New Year. I see that you were true to your word with that Wonder Flick avatar. When I saw the Logan's Run one I thought you had forgotten.

And nice to see you did not wait. No one knows when Capt. Toad is really getting the promised amiibo support, and it will probably be nothing special, so no use in waiting. How are you liking it?

@sinalefa - Logans Run was just a New Years blip. I grew up w/ that movie, FYI its all about a utopian society when they kill you at 29 before your 30th birthday. Im 49, Ill be 50 in July. Maybe Wonderflick will release by then, its been out in Japan a long time now.

Captain Toad is great for what it is, but I can see people playing Titanfall, Destiny and Halo putting it in the same puzzle solving casual category as Candy Crush. Im playing $10 Pushmo World at the same time so my brain is thinking puzzle solving.

@rjejr

My bro liked the movie too so I watched it years ago. They had a disc on the palm of their hand, and the old man loved cats.

You say your kid has a birthday in 10 days. Please don't tell me it is on the 14th. If you wonder why, mine is that day.

@sinalefa - yup. 14th, happy birthday to you too

My favorite birthday coincidence story - my sister dated a friend of mine for 3 years back when he and I were in college together. Years later she married someone else, then got divorced, then married again. Her first born was on my friends birthday - Jan 31. My nephew will be 13 this year, my friend 48 - the whole world is growing old, glad none of us have discs on our palms

@aaronsullivan - "Ugh, so tired of comparing sale prices for DI. lol."

I thought you finished months ago. I'm a year behind so I need to catch up. I stupidly bought Capt Jack and Barborosa (about $6 each used) so my kids could co-op the Pirates story, but of course we don't have the set piece w/ the free Wii U DL. That's $8.88 on eBay but I read Monsters and Incredibles aren't very good. Amazon has Di 1.0 used for $20 though, so I might get that and keep 1 pad on the Wii U and 1 on PS3, or 1 on PS3 in my room, I'm addicted. Toy Story set is now $21. It was $19.99 when I put it in my cart before breakfast but after lunch it was $21.21 so I moved it to save for later - in case you haven't noticed I'm neurotic, psychotic. A new Woody is $7.00 but not sure we need him w/ Buzz and the cowgirl already in the set. And Tinkerbell on sale for $10. I only want her and Mickey, though I don't like the crystal Mickey at all. My kid wants Hulk and Venom for his birthday next week, I'll let relatives buy those.

And of course we gt to the bus stop and my kids friends say's he got Minecraft - so just like that DI is done and its back to Minecraft for his birthday, which he will get. And LBP3 on PS3. I'm hoping after that no more games for a few months - he'll buy Kirby w/ his birthday money, that's on him.

"Having physical toys that integrate with the console might be the best marketing Nintendo did in 2014."

Watching football this weekend I commented to my wife about how many of those Game of War commercials I've seen but not a single Ntinedo 1. Though no Sony or MS either, gotta save the marketing $ for the holidays. But yeah, amiibo near the Wii U displays had to help. And all the games this year should at least help w/ in store marketing. Target has $5 pre-order cards for Yoshi and Splatoon. Might really be time for Ntineod to drop Wii U to $249 this spring, maybe a couple months after the new 3DS which I'm expecting announced late Feb for mid March release. So May or June, maybe to coincide w/ Mario Maker? "Make your own Mario game on a new lower price Wii U". Sounds like a marketing plan to me.

@rjejr we thought pirates, toy story, and Lone Ranger were the best adventures. However we've only finished pirates and incredibles. They are all kinda limited but each have some good ideas.

I dislike all the crystal figures. I don't understand them.

Minecraft trumps all, I guess

It's definitely time for a price drop. Is $50 enough?

@aaronsullivan - Got Incredibles play set free on the PC today but it glitched out and I cant progress - thats what you get for free. The old Incredibles PC game w/ Frozone and the Underminer was better though. And we have Toy Story 3 on PS3 which as Im sure you know is where DI originated so I sort of feel we played it already. This is much better than Disney Universe though, that game started out great but got stale afyer a few hours, Im noteven sure ee finished it, just a few days rental from Redbox. We'll see.

Sorry the previous comment was War and Peace. I was taken aback when I just saw it.
