| SJReiter said: This pricing still makes no sense. Isn't the point of a bundle to encourage people to buy multiple things for slightly less than they would be if purchased separately? Why bundle the game with 3 Amiibos for the same price as they would be separately? What's the incentive to buy this? |
Yeah, I think they're hoping the game won't ship much so they bundle a portion of them with Amiibos to get more money and clear the amiibo stocks.

It lets summon a cpu in helper in local multiplayer to tag team against your opponent. You can also train them as your own virtual pet fighter and let them challenege against each other or even yourself. They can go up to level 50 and recognize player's attack patterns. They will also work with Mario Kart 8, Toad treasure tracker, Yoshi Wolly World, and Mario Party 10. Those features are not detailed yet.
They also look cool and look nice on your desk or near your video game collection.
Here's a closer look of them: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MQ9rpGzlQYQ
