So apparently Amiibos are giving Nintendo lots and lots of dosh. It's only a matter of time before TPCI does the same thing with Pokemon. Yes I know a certain NFC game exists, but this is a different matter entirely.

Do you think they'll do a full 700+ Amiibo, or just pick out the popular ones? How do you think will they apply the Amiibo for the new games?

Popular ones or Mega Evolutions only.

They'd only do a select few. There'd be no reason to release a Forretress Amiibo. Forretress doesn't have enough of a fanbase to justify producing it.

They'd probably either make them the new way to get Event Pokemon or the new way to get Hidden Abilities and Special Event Moves. If so, they would start cracking down HARD on genning devices and programs.

>do 700+ amiibos

not a chance, that'd require effort and dedication and lets be honest, most pokemon don't sell.
There'll be a few charizard ones, a mega gardevoir one, a few legendaries, and other event pokes.

Amiibos in new games? I have a funny feeling amiibos are gonna end up completely forgotten in the next year or two.

They're a pretty fun and cool idea, but I don't think anyone developing on the 3DS actually has the gumption to make amiibos good enough for them to stick.

Even as it stands, the only game I've heard of that uses them is smash, and the way it uses them is pretty lame.

Did you just miss out the news that amiibos are giving Nintendo bunch of cash? And they've been implementing them in other games too.

We all know it's true. God knows every pokemon I want merch of is utterly forgotten by Nintendo as well.

They won't do it because they know adults play the games too and don't want to buy tons of toys. Also Masuda has spoken against DLC. We will get at spinoff doing it though I bet.

I only chose him because I've specifically tried looking for official merchandise for him, and couldn't find shit.

As a matter of fact I have, I heard about amiibos in that one Nintendo direct then I never heard about them again. One person I know out of the multitude of Nintendo fans got one, and his reaction was "It's mcdonalds toy quality"

And what other games use amiibos? I'm probably out of the loop but I haven't even heard of any releases big enough post-sm4sh to warrant proper amiibo implementation

Mario Kart 8 for one, and Hyrule Warriors. And yeah the quality is expected.

Smash Bros lets you train an Amiibo to fight the way you do, which is neat.

I think in order for amiibos to be worth it, the game they're built for needs to be worth it too.

Is Mario kart 8 new, or are you talking about the same one that came out on the 3DS just after launch? I haven't followed Mario kart much since the DS title

I know this is impossible but a man can dream (also it would be one hell of a cash machine).
