It's not dissimilar to cards. Or expensive DLC.

Amiibo similar to playing cards? Ok then.

How is it different? They are just things to collect.

If we could get an amiibo game now, that would be great...

If you're interested in Nintendo content and understand german, maybe you want to take a look at my youtube channel! :)

Any guesses what they might do for Christmas? Do they have anything big they could still bring to Amiibo? Or perhaps new versions of existing characters?

That's going to be the real battleground, I think, as the others usually launch a new line around that time.

Well, they could give us an amiibo game like Skylanders obviously!

That's like the big thing that is still missing. I think we have enough amiibos for now though.
