Seriously though, with all the little tricks like this, it's a wonder modern technology isn't falling apart. Commodore 64s being used to crack bank security vaults and stuff. It's crazy

I saw this a few days ago, what to heck??
Makes me wish I could think of somewhere to go test my own amiibo out..

Pretty sure they modified the NFC within their Amiibo figurine to act as the regular pass. Pretty neat if they did.

 

[n64king]

Right. Simple trick probably that will be revealed on Kotaku later saying they knew it all along

"Update: Doesn’t actually open"
