Forums - Nintendo - Retailers claiming Splatoon amiibo is coming!

I hope the bundle will boost sales.

Interesting.

Watch them sell out quickly, with scalpers selling them for outrageous prices.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

That's cool... I wonder if they are choosing to make just one Splatoon amiibo or multiple models...

Sounds like there could be a boy and girl model. I hope the characters get actual names though, rather than just Splatoon Boy/Splatoon Girl

Doubt it, that's the problem with games that focus on customisation.

It would be cool if this became a franchise and had a continued storyline with a continued hero.



It's interesting how only the Splatoon Girl/Boy has the 3ds listed as the supported system as well as the Wii U but not the squid.

Could this mean Smash Bros. dlc for the Girl/Boy...



 

This could push Splatoon sales and give it more presence on shelves. Very smart idea if true.

Smash Bros DLC character and Mario Kart Level unlocked through Splatoon Amiibo ^_^

I think I'd be okay with this if they also let you have the option to buy either for like $5 instead of having to buy the Amiibo.

I've been saying it for a while, Amiibo integration in Splatoon not only make massive sense, but could be a HUGE platform for Amiibo. Allowing people to scan in a Toon Link Amiibo that give you ink grenades that blow up into windwaker smoke, or a Peach Amiibo that gives you a crown and her gloves. Scan in Kirby and get an outfit that lets you absorb more ink or a Kirby hat. Plunk down your Ness Amiibo and get a Homerun bat style wep and a blue and yellow striped shit. A Luigi Amiibo that gives you a wep like his poltergust that sucks up enemy ink or something. The possibilities are endless and honestly would give me another reason to collect Amiibo. I would want all of them, not just my favorite characters because for once they would really do something meaningful in a game that already looks like a total blast.

Aren't they called Inklings?



Hopefully they do a Zelda series of amiibo.

Day One DLC seems to suddenly have a lot of support.
