sorry if i sound like a noob but what are those amiibo figures for? are they just a collectors item?
 
They unlock various things in different games

You tap them to the gamepad or new DS touchscreen
 
I know you aimed that at Jake. and all, but I have two Jigglypuff amiibo and one of them was sent in error and so it was free. XD

Why would you even answer this? You already have more than enough threads to show off your amiibo collection, so stop.

So since apparently this question is directed at everyone, I have no jigglypuff amiibos.
 
I have one but never use it. Shouldn`t have bought it in honesty.
 
I only have a Pikachu Amiibo because I feel childish when my parents see that I have a cartoon figurine on my desk
 
Do you only have Jigglypuff Amiibo's, or do you have more in your collection?
I have more amiibo than that Tao, would you like me to post a nice little list of every amiibo that I own?

Well you can use them is various games to get nice rewards, and display them nicely as well.
Or you can do the JasonBurrows method of never opening then and having them suffocate in their small plastic cube for the rest of eternity.
Your choice.
 
i'm a wank because i don't have gold mario

You said it pal, not me.


But amiibo offer little in-game bonuses for games.
You can train em' up in Smash Bros, Unlock costumes in Mario Kart, Weapons and Rupees in Hyrule Warriors, etc. Splatoon came out and I think they have the best usability with that game, having you complete single player missions to unlock goodies.

But yeah, they're also seen as collectors items.
I have mine boxed up right now, but I'm gonna unbox em in a mega unboxing when I get the full set(Smash Bros.)
