Connect with the game
Introducing amiibo characters – designed to connect and interact with compatible games. By holding the amiibo figurine over your Wii U GamePad, you'll open up new experiences within each corresponding game.

Your amiibo will store data as you play, making it your very own, one-of-a-kind amiibo.

The first amiibo series will be for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Send your amiibo character in to fight and grow stronger!

In the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U game, you'll be able to scan your amiibo into the game. You'll then be able to fight against your amiibo, team up with it in battle or watch it battle other in-game characters. Your amiibo will be able to increase its attack and defense stats and even learn new fighting tactics.

In addition to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, a variety of other games will offer amiibo compatibility. How they interact will vary from game to game.
