more amiibo on the way, including cards and plushes rather than hard plastic amiibos.
Not exact matches
The Mario sports games have a fanbase, but considering those games tend to be
more casual or party style games, the use of
amiibo altogether seems a little unnecessary, and the overall opinion
on these cards is just... meh.
My answer: The games that are already announced are enough for put Nintendo in a great place in 2015, however I think they should work
more on amiibo because having one is worthless (unless you're in love with smash... kinda like me:P), they're not cheap and the only game that they work well with is Super Smash Bros., in the other games they just give you additional items that aren't either that amazing and necessary (ex: Hyrule Warriors, Mario Kart 8, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse),
more I'm still waiting for what they're gonna do with Captain Toad, the game is already out but still no clue.

- as Captain Olimar is making his way home, an asteroid onslaught forces him to land
on a nearby planet - Sparklium is the fuel for Olimar's Dolphin III ship - with the ship's fuel depleted, you have to find items
on this planet which can be turned into fuel - collect everything from seeds to large scale treasures - you need 30,000 Sparklium to make your way home - you are eventually required to find a lost ship part at the end of the game - levels are
more linear and puzzle based, and include specific goals / goodies to collect - move Captain Olimar with the Circle Pad, while all other interactions use the touchscreen - blow your whistle, throw Pikmin and also touch certain objects - worlds are called Sectors, with six areas altogether - find all the treasure and look for new passageways to complete a sector 100 % - passageways can grant you access to secret spots or additional levels highlighted with the letter X - the first world is called Brilliant Garden, which has lush forest environments - Yellow Pikmin can easily reach the upper screen, where you can sometimes collect goodies and pull down vines - there's a level where you use yellow Pikmin as a source to connect two wires - connecting the wires lets you see enemies and platforms that were hidden in the shadows - Winged Pikmin can be flung at high speeds, and they can pick up Olimar and help him descend down into new areas - in a later level, you need to use red Pikmin to stomp out fire and clear the way for you - Rock Pikmin are the strongest ones of the bunch and can break crystals - blue Pikmin can swim and fight well underwater - the maximum amount of Pikmin you can have in a stage is 20 - blow your whistle to call over the correct Pikmin for a task or puzzle - Ravaged Rustworks offers a unique industrial environment where you climb
on pipes - Loney Tower has you climbing to the top of a tower without any help of Pikmin, and instead use pipes and Olimar's jetpack - Valley of the Breeze, found in the Leafswirl Lagoon sector, relies complete
on Winged Pikmin - Barriers of Flame is in the Sweltering Parchlands sector - here you «lll be forced to improvise with Yellow and Rock Pikmin to get around fire - every world ends with a boss stage - one boss fight puts you up against a Fiery Blowhog, where you use Red Pikmin to pick up / feed bombs to the boss - beating bosses gives you treasures worth 1,000 Sparklium each - supports
amiibo in the Splatoon, Super Mario and Animal Crossing lines -
amiibo can be scanned in to grant you access to secret spots - these are one room puzzle challenges where you collect a statue - these bonus rooms will also get you 200 Sparklium every time - you are limited by how many
amiibo you can summon to each secret spot - one of the treasures you will find is an NES cartridge for Ice Climbers, which carries the name «Revenge Fantasy».
