Kirby Star Allies Compatible amiibo And What They Unlock

Yayyyyy

Have tons of amiibo including kirby ones but I won't use them in this game. It seems easy enough as it is to unlock the stuff without them.

Slightly excited by this game since I realised it's a bit more like a traditional Kirby game and my wife might actually play co op with me.

Those things. I'd nearly forgotten about them. Most retailers have.

Wooohooo. Amazlings
I can feel the HYPE

Disappointing but nice, I suppose. At least it's something.

Glad to know I won't be missing out on any content by only having a smash bros meta knight and like 40something other non-kirby amiibos.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE nobody cares

We don't own any of the Kirby amiibo but I'll give some of the others a try just to see what they do.

Target was clearing out all of their amiibo last I checked but prices weren't that great even on clearance. TRU had Pitt for $10 but I decided it wasn't worth it. I picked up AC:aF for $5.98 to play the mini games.

TRU also had about 60 packs of the Miifighters 3 packs for $20 each, maybe they'll be cheap if the liquidation becomes real.

I do have Kirby and Meta Knight Amiibo but for a game like Star Allies I doubt they'll be necessary.

@rjejr It's definitely for real.

I have the original squid inkling boy. He's useful in Bayonetta 2 and this Kirby game? Score!

I have a Princess Peach and a couple of Animal Crossing Amiibos, so yay I guess.

I have more amiibo than I’d care to admit. So I’m at least covered for the Smash brothers one.

Just in case you needed your Kirby game to be easier.

Is it like Breath of the Wild where we can use them once a day, or is each Amiibo single use?

Also I am kind of bummed that there are no special goodies for using Mario, Zelda or Pokemon Amiibo. I feel like that is a running example of a missed opportunity by many Nintendo games.

My local Walmarts have like two amiibo each. Usually the Animal Crossing ones. I still have never bought an amiibo either. I wanted one at first, but I’ve missed little to nothing, I feel.

@rjejr It's for real. Part of the reason the liquidation is happening is they are still charging outrageous prices like $20 on a set of amiibos nobody but modders wants. Even $6 is too much for AC:aF, haha, Ninty owes you money for that purchase!

All my Kirby amiibo (the Smash ones) are still MIB so I'm glad I won't be tempted to free them from thier plastic prisons.

@justin223 The Animal Crossing amiibo always hog most of the amiibo spaces, so it's really difficult to find any amiibo that aren't Animal Crossing.

"by tapping a compatible amiibo on your Switch you get a couple picture pieces (please note that these aren't the special picture pieces we've covered in a separate guide. You can only get those by grabbing them in each level)"

Anyone able to elaborate a bit more on this? What's the difference between a "special picture piece" and a "picture piece" you get from an amiibo?!

@justin233 Only thing I felt I missed out on was Epona from BotW. That said, I do have a few amiibo and enjoy them from a collectable statue point of view.

@Dj64Mk7 @TheLobster Really done. I'll probably hit them up later for bargains, there are a couple of amiibo I'd get for $3, but not that 3 pack at any price. I've never understood them.

AC:aF $6 for 2 real amiibo, 3 amiibo cards and 1 pretend game, that's $1 each.
