Well... You can't use amiibos online so the only time you can really use them is when you are playing with ur friends so neh, it won't really do anything that breaks the game and the main reason why most people seem to collect amiibos is for the figures and not really what they provide for in-game content (which isn't really much to begin with)

You really think Nintendo is going to waste money making these things hacker proof? Lol! Skylanders and Disney characters have long been hacked already. Obviously they were going to get hacked, not a very impressive prediction.

I don't think this will be a problem at all. How many people are going to do this?
Definitely not a lot... It also doesn't give you any real advantages gameplay wise, so this shouldn't be a problem right now.



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

Now I'd love to see someone create a Mr. Game and Watch amiibo.

it becomes an issue as predicted. 


Where's the issue? You still can't have multiple amiibos in one, so this is basically just trading your amiibo for another one.

is it true that when you get arrested in japan 99.8% end up in jail and sentenced as guilty.

The issue is cheaping out and going with low capacty, poor storage nfc hardware results in:

no ability to stop nfc replication, no encryption on the actual nfc dataso it can be modified, so someone could easilly release an apk/iso app containing all amiibos, including amiibos not currently released, which negtes the need to buy any further figures, but most importanty, a hardware limitation, meaning all currently released characters physically cannot store more than one games data, not now, not in the future.

The prediction wasnt meant to be impressive, it was meant to point out how stupid the design choice was.

It is a matter of FOB price only, Nintendo wouldnt have had to spend a penny on security because NFC tecnologies support various modes by default, providing the NFC tag used has said features, which the amiibos do not.

The price difference to Nintendo would litterally have been less than $0.06 per unit.
