Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Amiibo Figures Can Only Store Data From One Game At A Time

The title will be misleading, like others have pointed out on gaf, only game you need sofar to save data on is SSB. The other 2 currently known games is just used for the game, no need saved data required. Im sure the other games will be the same

See, Exactly as I said. Amiibo's are used to unlock disc locked content within the games.


Its more like DLC content that gets added to the game later.


This, so much this!

And besides, it's one price for multiple DLC's across various games if one gets the right amiibo and games.

We knew this since E3. All it means is that they will only be used as 'memory cards' for Smash, while for other games they are keys to unlock content.


people will not notice or completely ignore it :0



a. Old news...we already have a thread on this
b. This is write data only and the only game so far to use write data is Smash...the rest are read only

Let's just hope that Nintendo will allow users to save Amiibo data somewhere on the WiiU to switch between games. That shouldn't be too hard to implement as a system update.

That off course would only happen when a game other than Smash will be able to write data in Amiibos.



You guys need to realize something.

Not all games store data with Amiibos. Smash Bros is the only game to do that so far.

Meaning you'll have to buy another figure when more games come out with smash like functionality.

Damage control man. Just like with the drop in quality people keep making excuses. The major selling point of these is that they were supposed to have multi game functionality. To deny that this news reveals a serious flaw in that approach is fanboyism of a high degree.

....yeah, so? You could also delete the save data on the amiibo if you wanted to.
