Forums - Nintendo Discussion - I bought my first Amiibo today! Who was your first?

Technically my first was Luigi who I got on impulse. Because I'm pretty sure my mother and older sister had already selected Mario, Link, and Fox for me as surprise Christmas presents, and all of the presents had been under the tree at that point.If you count those, Mario. Because Mario fanboy



Around the Network

I bought Link, Yoshi and Samus at the same time. Haven't bought any since.



It'll be awhile before I figure out how to do one of these. :P

I don't own one but I've preordered Mario Party 10 and comes with Amiibo Mario.

What are the purpose of Amiibos and do they offer any advantages in game or just a gimmick?


Welcome to the Site! I'm pretty new myself, but I certianly am already enjoying myself here!

 

I bought sheik mostly because it looked cool, and I hadnt seen it in stores before.  I'm a huge legend of zelda fan, it looked cool, and I wanted to try it out in game.  I like trying new ideas in the game industry at least once before I form a solid opinion on them.  we'll see how sheik works in super Smash Bros!  hopefully the new legend of zelda game coming out this year will give me some sort of functionality for my sheik amiibo...
