Nintendo also plans to release "smaller and even more affordable" amiibo figures in the future. The first amiibo figures, based on the new Super Smash Bros., retail for $12.99. The company's new figures are already confirmed to work with a variety of software titles, including Mario Kart 8, Hyrule Warriors and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. Some of those games are being retrofitted with amiibo features, while others, including a new Animal Crossing game, are being built with amiibo in mind.
"By using amiibo in different forms, we are internally discussing the possibility of using amiibo with, for example, an Animal Crossing game and other games in some unique ways," Miyamoto said. "I hope you look forward to our future announcements." (Polygon)
