Out of interest, when was the last time somebody actually used one of their amiibo in a game? I'm looking around at all my bos on display and I'm thinking, Nintendo should really find ways for us to use these more frequently.

I've been using my Princess Peach in Mario Tennis as my doubles partner pretty much every day since Christmas day.

Hah, very nice, it has a 10% discount offer when added to the cart, too, making it £6.29. Yoink!

Ditto for Sheik.

If you don't mind waiting, you can put it through flubit to get it at around £21-£22.

More awesome Amiibo deals here, including ROB, 8-bit Mario, Duck Hunt, and AC.

Just saw those. I own every single Amiibo and honestly, I'm not sure I'm bothered about these. I'll probably pick them up if they're ever in a sale at some point but for £50 for the two figures, I'm happy without them.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

yeah, the skylanders ones are ugly as hell.

 

[The Libertine]

My Shovel Knight amiibo has arrived. Are the modes and features it unlocks already available?

Sure are!

 

[The Libertine]

Sure are!

Awesome. I just started playing the Plague of Shadows DLC last night, after putting it down after only a few levels last year. I have no idea why I did either, the game is incredible.

 

[mclem]

FOR SHOVELRY!

I was just coming in here to post that Pre-ordered mine!

I'm also extremely tempted to start getting the animal crossing amiibo... but not knowing how many there will be is putting me off :/

 

[Robin64]

Yoink.

As someone who only started out buying the characters I really really wanted most, I'm getting dangerously close to having a full Smash collection now. Certainly the ones I don't have are super easy to get, with the one exception of Mega Man.

 

[TsunamiOfSwagger]

Only one I need for a full set is mega man, no news on a reissue?

 

[Chopper]

The only amiibo I still need is Donkey Kong. And that gold Mega Man. Gonna need that bad boy too.

 

[Spades]

I'm sitting on a full set. Love how awesome they all look on my shelf.

We're only about 20 Amiibo cards away from a complete set of 200 as well.

 

[Phillips455]

All of the Animal crossing amiibos are now available separately as well. (Apart from digby and Isabella)

Does Smyth do free delivery?

 

[Drama Zed Nod]

I think it's just for in-store pick up, not delivery.

I might be wrong.

Lucas is available from Nintendo:

For some reason I thought he was up a while ago and I just had no idea. Put my order in late in the evening. Glad the madness looks to be over.

Had notifications for both Roy and Ryu today. At Zavvi.

 

[Robin64]

Sweet, my Lucas is on the way!

Can't believe I am able to buy some actual legit Mother 3 merchandise here in the UK!

(Even though technically it's Smash merchandise, but shh, don't ruin this for me)

 

[diddykong13]

Yep same, might hold out for Nintendo UK Store though as Zavvi take payment straight away for pre-orders

Nice! Needed that one, thanks.

 

[Zalman]

Animal Crossing amiibo finally went down in price here in Denmark, so I grabbed Tom Nook and K.K. Slider. I would get Isabelle, but I'd rather have the summer one since that's basically the "default" Isabelle. I was considering getting a few others, but I'm still not sure how deep I want to get into the Animal Crossing series. I'll most likely get Resetti too at some point, but he's not officially out yet.

 

[BGBW]

Why does Mario Kart 8 tease you with an 'Animal Crossing' costume with an image of Isabelle only for it to tell me the Animal Crossing Isabelle nendo is not compatible?

What a tease.

 

[The Libertine]

Another Argos deal, in store only this time. The Splatoon Squid Amiibo is only £5.99. It is advertised at the normal price online though.

No worries. Amazon has become my go-to place for Amiibo pre-orders these days.

 

[Drama Zed Nod]
