== "Mario Related Games" ==
Doesn't the fact that amiibos unlock a skin of Mario, Peach and Luigi for Ace Combat Cross Rumble 3D make it a "Mario related game" ?
See : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzJFQvkR_e0
: A Mario-related game is a game in the Super Mario series, or a series related to it, such as Donkey Kong, Wario, Yoshi, Captain toad, etc. [[User:WiiURob|- Robert ^.^]] ([[User talk:WiiURob|talk]])
::On that note maybe we should list any games that have UNIQUE Mario content related to amiibos (i.e. Hyrule warriors wouldn't count as it doesn't add anything Mario related) [[Special:Contributions/109.146.163.6|109.146.163.6]] 08:53, 27 November 2014 (EST)
:::Though I agree with WiiURob about games with Mario content being NOT Mario related, I think there should be a list of games having this. {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
== Proof? ==
Where is the proof that [[Luigi]], Cap'n Falcon, and all other figures from wave 2 will work on [[Mario Party 10|MP10]], [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker|cttt]], and [[Yoshi's Woolly World|yww]] --YoshiMaster1026!!
:While they won't work on YWW and CTTT, all non-playable MP10 amiibos give Mario Part Points. Playable characters-related amiibos are instead used for unlocking stuff in the game and more, since the games also writes data on them. {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
== Future Mario series amiibo contains Rosalina ==
You can see her amiibo in the trailer, not the one where he says nine amiibo, but when the players move around the board.

: And donkey kong too. This implies everyone will.[[File:Toad-brigade model CTTT.png|35px|]][[User:toadbrigade5|<font color=red><big>'''Toad'''</big></font>]][[User talk:toadbrigade5| <small>and his</small><font color=grey> '''brigade!'''</font>]][[File:Toadette model CTTT.png|35px]] 21:47, 14 January 2015 (EST)
::It is said that their SSB amiibos will work for it. However, I think they will get their own Mario amiibo in the future, alongside the other characters...{{User:Ashley anEoTselkie/sig}}
:::Maybe all the playable characters in MP10. Donkey Kong, Rosalina, Daisy, Toadette, Wario and Waluigi in Wave 2, I guess. If Birdo, Koopa Troopa, Dry Bones, Boo and Shy Guy are playable characters, I think they'll be in Wave 3. {{User:Infinite8/sig}} 08:09, 15 January 2015 (EST)
== Games that read and write/read only amiibos ==
I'm asking because nobody ever thought about this. Mario Party 10 does this, apparently. As I noted on the summary, the situation is different depending on the amiibo I'll scan. Say I have got a Mario amiibo and a Kirby amiibo, both with Super Smash Bros. data on them, and I want to use them in MP10. If I want to use Mario, I'll have to delete the SSB data first, since Mario is a playable character and is used on amiibo Party, so the game writes data. If I want to use Kirby instead, I don't have to download my SSB data because he isn't a playable character, so is not used in amiibo Party but only for earning easy Mario Party Points, so the game only reads data for it. So, the article stated it boths reads and writes data, but it's not always true, so I corrected by putting both images separated by a bold, x5 big slash. Is it good now or we should do something else? {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
:Well, Read and Write + read-only is kinda redundant, especially since you can find the answers to your question if you just look at the chart or look to the left. But people won't do that, because sometimes they're just looking for a impossibly quick answer. But, I don't like how it looks now, I think we should create a special image (sorta combination of the two) that would represent it. [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User_talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 12:46, 19 January 2015 (EST)
::I know an image would have been more fitting... But this wiki doesn't like fan-made stuff, so if one would be ever be made, probabily it will be rejected. Anyways, if it's OK to have this fan-made image, I'd go for a yellow background and the rightmost arrow segmented. I never tried to make .svg files, though. {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
==Wave 5?==
This is baffling since there has not been any mention of a 5th wave. There has only been a 4th wave announcement, any 5th wave announcement will most likely come out after April or just before. Although i would like to see reference if there is any at all to this speculated 5th wave. - [[File:Cubeguy2ver.png|30px]][[User:Cubeguy|Cubeguy]][[User talk:Cubeguy|(talk)]]
:What? You mean Europe Wave 5? That's just Wave 4, but since Wave 3 was separated into two batches (Mega Man, Shulk, and Sonic in one, all others in the other) the numbers got all jumbled. [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User_talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 19:26, 25 January 2015 (EST)
::This technically doesnt classify them as different waves, i know there have been delays and mix ups and who-ha's but there still the same waves. - [[File:Cubeguy2ver.png|30px]][[User:Cubeguy|Cubeguy]][[User talk:Cubeguy|(talk)]]
:::No, you don't understand. Nintendo themselves ''said''  they were different waves. They themselves called them Wave 3 and 4, respectively. [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User_talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 20:32, 25 January 2015 (EST)
::::Ah, well its easy to get confused here since nintendo includes my country with europe, since wave 3 is still wave 3 and wave 4 is wave 4 here. - [[File:Cubeguy2ver.png|30px]][[User:Cubeguy|Cubeguy]][[User talk:Cubeguy|(talk)]]
== Pictures of the Mario Series? ==
I know we shouldn't show all of the amiibos but can someone find a group shot of the wave 1 Mario series figures? [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] ([[User talk:Guybrush20X6|talk]]) 16:47, 12 February 2015 (EST)
:[[Gallery:amiibo|Will this gallery]] do? {{User:Mario/sig}} 17:04, 12 February 2015 (EST)
== All same attributes, different design ==
I would like to note that in a statement of re-supplying amiibo they mention all amiibo of characters that share multiple series, such as Mario, luigi, etc. Will all have the same effects, unlocks, etc. in games. They just have different designs, also id like to point out that with the card variant of the characters this supports the aforementioned statement. - [[File:Cubeguy2ver.png|30px]][[User:Cubeguy|Cubeguy]][[User talk:Cubeguy|(talk)]]
== amiibo info from Nintendo's Financial Briefing ==
[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/150217/04.html I'll just leave this here], I don't know what if anything is worth adding to the article, but it's interesting nonetheless. (Yes, I did also post this to ssbwiki, you're not going crazy) [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User_talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 13:10, 21 February 2015 (EST)
:Yes, this information about sales data is definitely worth adding to the article, considering we also cite video game sales as well. Maybe add a "reception" or "sales" section to this article, that would be perfect. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 14:40, 21 February 2015 (EST)
==Special Edition amiibo==
{{Settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|failed|2-8|don't have}}
With Gold Mario confirmed, I think amiibo like Gold Mario (palette swaps) should be categorized under Special Edition (or SP). They are not part of a Wave, and are released on their own.
'''Proposer''': {{User|The Mario Gamer}}<br>
'''Deadline''': March 12, 2015, 23:59 GMT.
===Support===
#{{User|The Mario Gamer}} Per description
#{{User|Aidanzapunk}} Maybe not make it now, but there will probably be more like it.
===Oppose===
#{{User|Metalex123}} A category for ONE amiibo? No thanks! Wait until there's more special amiibos and maybe I'll support it.
#{{User|Lumastar}} Per Metalex123 and my comment below.
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per all. [[MarioWiki:Categories#Size_and_scope|According to policy]], categories need to have at least 5 entries to be viable anyway.
#{{User|Vommack}} Per all.
#{{User|LudwigVon}} Per all.
#{{User|Mario}} Even if there are more special edition amiibos, I don't really think they need a separate category. An amiibo is an amiibo, period.
#{{User|Andymii}} Per all. It'll be a good idea if Nintendo ever releases more special edition amiibos, but for now, a category with just one in it is useless.
#{{User|Shy Guy in a Bush}} Per all.
===Comments===
It's a bit too soon for this, but I (AKA the creator of these amiibo categories) think that it would be best to wait for at least one more limited-edition amiibo. Then we'll talk.

On a side note, the Gold Mario amiibo [http://mynintendonews.com/2015/02/26/gold-mario-amiibo-sold-out-in-15-minutes-on-walmart-website/ sold out in 15 fucking minutes on Walmart's website]. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''Aidan the'''</span>]] [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''Aura Master'''</span>]] 22:46, 27 February 2015 (EST)
There will be at least 2 Special Edition amiibo. We're still waiting for official news regarding the Silver Mario amiibo. It is part of the Super Mario series of amiibo. {{User:Agentdave7/Sig}} 23:01, 27 February 2015 (EST)
While I believe this will be a Special Edition, I don't think we're at a point where we could fairly rule it as such. [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User_talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 11:53, 28 February 2015 (EST)
== Controversy ==
Should we talk about the whole amiibo fiasco on this article? I mean it sounds pretty relevant to this product and it's happening, like very significantly. So significantly, Nintendo is even aware of it and wanted to make a re-release of Marth. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 15:25, 5 April 2015 (EDT)
== Skylanders ==
Since Bowser and Donkey Kong are appearing in the new Skylanders game as playable characters with brand new figures, along with other stuff like Koopa Troopas, shouldn't that qualify the game to get its own article? I mean, if we have [[NBA Street V3]], there's no reason not to have this game. --{{User:SuperYoshiBros/sig}} 11:03, 18 June 2015 (EDT)
:I think the best action to take is wait and see what other features Skylanders has up its sleeve before we make an article on it. So far, a mention of it in [[List of Mario references in video games]] and the respective character articles would suffice. Currently, though, Bowser, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong's appearances would qualify as a guest appearance per [[MarioWiki:Coverage|our coverage policy]]. Take note that it says that ''"a Proposal should be made before a game is classified as a "guest appearance", as this is a somewhat tricky distinction and there could easily be disagreement in the community about the extent to which coverage should be granted to any given non-Mario game.''", but my personal advice is to wait until the game is released. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 22:46, 18 June 2015 (EDT)
== Super Mario Maker ==
According to an [http://images.nintendolife.com/news/2015/06/super_mario_maker_will_allow_you_to_use_amiibo_mystery_suits_for_figures_you_dont_own/attachment/0/630x.jpg image] it appears that 80 or more amiibo will be compatible, According to another [http://nintendoeverything.com/wp-content/uploads/mario-maker-amiibo-costumes.jpg image] there will be different colored amiibo costumes. [[Special:Contributions/178.167.254.151|178.167.254.151]] 08:09, 28 July 2015 (EDT)
:Interesting, although do you think part of the "80" amiibo would be the recolors? {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 16:22, 28 July 2015 (EDT)
Probably... Its likely that there are more amiibo that are compatible with super mario maker... [[Special:Contributions/178.167.254.193|178.167.254.193]] 08:14, 29 July 2015 (EDT)

== Amiibo waves list ==
Just saying, I would like for someone to change the release date sections so that they ALL show the region, the wave and the release date on each region.
A perfect example is the Super Mario series amiibo, which was already done:
====Release dates====
{| class="wikitable" style="text-align: left"
!Region
!Wave
!Release dates

!align=center colspan="1"|[[File:Flag_of_USA.png|25px]] North America

I'd like an answer from someone. Thanks. [[User:Sarantis|Sarantis]] ([[User talk:Sarantis|talk]]) 09:28, 24 October 2015 (EDT)
*Never mind. I did it all by myself. Just because an amiibo is special, doesn't mean we have to split the release dates between the normal and the special amiibo. You never know what can happen in the future! ;) [[User:Sarantis|Sarantis]] ([[User talk:Sarantis|talk]]) 10:12, 4 January 2016 (EST)
==Change R.O.B Color Region Difference Trivia==
I feel this bit of trivia needs to be changed, however some might disagree. Basically the 2 colored R.O.B's are based off the color of the NES from the region, and they decided to do the same with the amiibo. HOWEVER! They plan to sell the other versions in the other regions. Basically the trivia should be changed to "The R.O.B Amiibo was originally sold in a diffrent color to its region" Just to keep it short. - [[File:Cubeguy2ver.png|30px]][[User:Cubeguy|Cubeguy]][[User talk:Cubeguy|(talk)]]
:I didn't keep it as short as you wanted, but at least it's explained better. "The R.O.B. amiibo was originally sold in a different color to its region" doesn't explain a lot (it also makes little sense as it is). {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
== Wave 3 Super Mario amiibo ==
Do you think Nintendo will ever release the third wave of the Super Mario series amiibo? This is to go with the already existing amiibo for [[Mario Party 10]], which apparently shows photos of possible [[Wario]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[Rosalina]] figures. Below are the photos.

::Update:IGN announces wave 3 of Super Mario Amiibo. In addition to the three aforementioned Amiibo shown in the photos, there will also be [[Waluigi]], [[Daisy]], [[Diddy Kong]], and [[Boo]] figurines, with the latter able to glow in the dark.

== The compatibility table has exceeded the page width ==
Future Mario games that will be compatible with Mario-related/Smash amiibo makes it harder for MarioWiki (non-user) readers for the desktop version to see the whole table because of the ad on the left side. Is there another way to reduce the table width or change the table completely? {{User:Infinite8/sig}} 01:00, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
:Maybe organize by read/ write / n/a capabilities instead of per game. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 02:14, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
== Super Mario Cereal ==
We already knew that the cereal box has built-in amiibo. The question is, how are we going to put this in this article? <br>A. Put under "Super Mario" line section (probably not).<br>B. Put under a new "Miscellaneous" section.<br>The built-in amiibo has a unique identifier, as it is recognised as a "delicious amiibo" rather than "lovely amiibo" for unrecognised amiibo. - {{User:Infinite8/sig}} 18:43, 6 December 2017 (EST)

== Amiibo spelling ==
I don't understand why the word "Amiibo" starts with a lowercase letter a bunch of times. Is it supposed to be written like that? Even on [[Nintendo]]'s official site it starts with a lowercase letter! (Posting by: [[User talk:Bwario|Bwario]], 8:31, April 4, 2024).
