Yesterday during Nintendo’s latest Direct, the company revealed even more amiibo that will be arriving soon. Though the game releases are light for the company’s platforms, the amount of toys-to-life product definitely aren’t!
Check out all of the new pieces of plastic coming from the company over the next few months, and how you may swear it off but the hobby keeps pulling you back in.
Animal Crossing
There is a whole slew of Animal Crossing amiibo arriving soon. It started with the initial drop of amiibo cards that launched with Happy Home Designer for the 3DS. We know there will be a second series coming on January 22, 2016 (just released in Japan on October 29) with 100 new cards.
Right on our horizon, however, is the line that will be available for Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival.
Launching November 20th, these include:
- Isabelle
- Digby
- KK
- Mabel
- Tom Nook
- Lottie
- Reese
- Cyrus
Coming on January 22, 2016 is:
- Resetti
- Blathers
- Celeste
- Kicks
Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS
When it comes to Smash Bros, there are a few more figures arriving, and with the latest character announcement we’re sure more will be arriving to accompany those.
The Mii Fighters have just been released…
- Mii Brawler
- Mii Swordfighter
- Mii Gunner
… as did Mewtwo.
Falco arrives on November 20.
Coming in 2016 is Lucas and (we presume) Ryu and Cloud, since Nintendo have stated that there will be amiibo for every one of their characters — including DLC.
Yoshi’s Woolly World
Though three Yoshi have been released already for the game, the giant Mega Yarn Yoshi releases within this month (November) for the game.
Shovel Knight
Announced over the Summer, Shovel Knight will be making his way into amiibo form at some point this year (2015). Our assumption is December, but who knows? It’ll be compatible with the Shovel Knight game and nothing else (announced, at least).
Mega Man Legacy Collection
Though there’s already a Mega Man amiibo available for Super Smash Bros, it’s getting a special makeover. Coming in February, and packed in along with the Mega Man Legacy Collection game for the 3DS, is a special Gold Mega Man.
Twilight Princess HD
Coming in March 2016 is the meaty Wolf Link with Midna amiibo, packed in with the just announced Twilight Princess HD game for the Wii U.
Pokken Tournament
Arriving packed in with Pokken Tournament in Spring 2016 will be a special Shadow Mewtwo amiibo card that will unlock the character for in-game play.
