There's got to be an "major" Amiibo title for 2015 IMO.

Either a Skylanders type of hub game (maybe a different genre) or really deep functionality with one of their 2015 titles, but there's gotta be something in my opinion.

Not just side stuff like Mario Party 10 has, something that uses the more majority of Amiibo toys.

Otherwise sales of the Amiibo line will fall off as 2015 goes on, they need to keep these sales going. 

I mentioned it in another thread, but I think Splatoon could work. Scan in your Falcon, Pitt, Marth, DK, Diddy, Pikachu, etc. amiibo and voila ... they instantly become playable squid characters. 

No, not playable characters, toooo much work. Clothes and weapons yes. (like MK8 mii costumes). That i can see.  Ex: Scan Captain Falcon, get the helmet (the hat).  Scan Fox get a paintball gun tht looks like a gun from star fox...

Also sales wont drop anytime soon. 18 amiibos were released, 4-5 are rare as hell, 2 barely even are accounted for i think in the report. Then there are only 1/3rd  of the Smash line out in stores. With Super Mario line releasing soon. 15mil will be shipped by years end imo without an amiibo game.

Of course i hope there is an amiibo game!


Maybe they could do something like this for Splatoon -- 

Every 2-3 months, new playable Amiibo characters come online for Splatoon.

So the first wave could be say Mario, Samus, Diddy Kong, Fox, and Luigi, lets just say. 

Second wave could be Villager, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Peach, Link. 

Etc. etc. They could take their time in adding the extra characters. It could also help Splatoon be an ever green selling title with exciting new content being added constantly. 

I could also see things like a Mario battle stage, a Zelda themed stage, etc. being added later on. 

It would also be a nice excuse for Nintendo to reproduce some of these characters too, I think fans would love it and it would allow some of characters that a lot of people didn't get to become available again (screw you scalpers) when ever their "wave" is released for Splatoon.
