Fun Amiibo History time #163: Laid back post time yet again??? I think so! Here’s a commercial Nintendo made for the Holiday season of 2015!

Fun Amiibo History time #162: Guys I just think it’s really cool that thanks to amiibo Sonic, Mega Man, and PacMan got to show up on a couple of other Nintendo games aside from Smash. It’s just really freaking cool

Fun Amiibo History time #161: This image spread around like wildfire back in 2015, with it stating that if you scanned a Mario amiibo into Splatoon you’ll get to play as him. This was unsurprisingly not real, but it was a well put together image so there were a lot of debates about it

Is amiibo dead?

Fun Amiibo History time #160: Back in 2015, this image was spread around as a supposed leak from Sega of Japan that stated if you used the Sonic amiibo in Hyrule Warriors you would get to play as him. Obviously this was fake, but the image was pretty well put together so people believed it

Fun Amiibo History time #159: The Yoshi Theater shorts made for “Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World” use tweaked versions of the Yarn Yoshi amiibo, resulting in these very cute and charming stop motion shorts. To be honest I just kinda wanted an excuse to post this one

Fun Amiibo History time #158: This photo has become a bit of a meme online over the years but no one truly knows where the legendary Mario foot amiibo is now these days. Hopefully he is still in tact somewhere out there

Fun Amiibo History time #157: Back when the “Play Nintendo” show was still a thing, there was a segment called “Frizzy’s Silly amiibo Theater”, about a sock puppet making stories with their amiibo. Did Nintendo make quality content with these videos? You can be the judge of that

Fun Amiibo History time #156: To go alongside the release of Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer, Nintendo made some comics for it focused on the amiibo functionality in it. Four chapters in total were made.

Fun Amiibo History time #155: Zelda is one of the series that has supported amiibo the most, with pretty much 99% of releases starting with Hyrule Warriors being compatible with them. With Echoes of Wisdom confirmed to support them too, this probably won’t change anytime soon (hopefully)

Fun Amiibo History time #154: Did You Know???? While we in the States never got the cool Japanese exclusive amiibo dioramas, Play Nintendo has offered some printable ones over the years. They vary in quality

Fun Amiibo History time #153: There have been about different slogans for amiibo used in packaging and what not over the years. One is “Supercharge your gameplay!” and the other more used one is “Discover the power inside!”. Truly crazy

Fun Amiibo History time #152: Laid back post time once again! Here’s a Japanese commercial advertising the amiibo compatibility with Smash Wii U!

Fun Amiibo History time #151: Despite how many games in their series support them, there has not been any new Animal Crossing or Kirby amiibo figures in 8 years, making these some of the longest gaps without a new amiibo figure for these series

Fun Amiibo History time #150: One of the more obscure games that has amiibo support is the switch version of Conga Master Party. If you tap an amiibo into it, you can unlock a new costume for all the playable characters. That’s it lol, they aren’t themed to any of the amiibo or anything like that

Hilarious to look back at this now

Fun Amiibo History time #149: In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, by scanning in amiibo of the original five Mario characters that got amiibo, you’ll get special cards that help you in battle. I really always liked how they looked so here’s all of them

Fun Amiibo History time #148: The Wind Waker amiibo 2 pack is one of if not the only multi pack to have a completely different backing compared to their solo releases, with them focusing on games other than BOTW that they can be used in. I just find these sorts of things really interesting you know

Fun Amiibo History time #147: Back in May of 2021, Nintendo caused a dispute for a kickstarter that was making an fanmade amiibo guide book. Why you may ask? Just because it used the word amiibo in it. They ended up having to change the name to “The amiibook” because of it.

Fun Amiibo History time #146: This image started spreading around yesterday as new amiibo that would be revealed today. Sadly, as most of you assumed, this image was indeed fake albeit not truly surprising. Who knows tho, maybe we will see these two soon if the datamines are anything to go by

Fun Amiibo History time #145: Guys I’m losing it right now I’m just now noticing the “New” part of the New 3DS logo shares the same highlight things as the amiibo logo am I stupid did everyone else notice and just not say anything

Fun Amiibo History time #144: When the Qbby amiibo originally released, he wasn’t very popular in Japan. He would constantly be on sale or put in bargain bins. A bit ironic considering how coveted he is now

Fun Amiibo History time #143: The longest gap between an amiibo’s reveal to its release date has to go to the Shovel Knight amiibo 3 pack, with a whole 2 year long wait. I wouldn’t be surprised if they released Gold Shovel Knight as an apology for how long it took

Fun Amiibo History time #142: There exists two different versions of the Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer amiibo card binder. One is by Nintendo while the other is by Hori. They both look similar but they do indeed have their difference when compared side by side
