Heeeeelp, I'm afraid to break my new amiibos out of their boxes for fear of damaging them. <:( Even though I did get them to play with them and not just sell them for more than my family paid for them.

My brother got a Samus Amiibo two days ago, and is yet to unbox her.

I've gotten Zelda, Samus, Peach, and Kirby. Pikachu, Captain Falcon, and hopefully Marth are on their way. I'm just hoping I can get Shulk and Rosalina when they release.

Unfortunately, I hadn't heard that my local games store is only holding preorders for 48 hours, instead of the usual week or so, meaning I lost out on my Zelda Amiibo, and nearly lost my Link as well.

And they aren't taking any more orders, they've been booked so far in advance.

Good news for Nintendo. tongue

One of you guys, come over here and play with me and my amiibos. They enjoy the company.

So far, I got Link, Yoshi, Fox, Pikachu, Wii Fit Trainer, Mario, Samus, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Peach, and Kirby.

I plan to collect 'em all.

I've still only got Fox.

I'm STILL worried about it inevitably joining Skynet

I got Mario, Link, Samus, and Pikachu.

I'm tempted now to get the First Eight, but I just don't know if I'm going to use them all...

(Un?)Fortunately they're relatively cheap. I know I still want Fox, and I may just get DK, Kirby and Yoshi to fill out the octet.

Gah, I'm so old.

Well I've decided now to reset my aMariibo so I can level him up more or less even with my other new amiibos.

I took my Link out of the box to try the spinner on Hyrule Warriors and it was...fun, sure...but I think he's gonna be a lot more useful in Smash.

I'm probably going in for a Link, at least, more for his Spinner in Hyrule Warriors than anything.

Well, four days later and I've finally gotten all the Classic character trophies!

I sure said that!

I was actually kind of worried the Amiibos would be failures that wouldn't sell enough for Ninty to get their money back, when I first heard of them.

That's master-level foresight, right there, now that they're selling like hot-cakes. I grossly underestimate Smash's power.

I honestly don't really get the appeal of having all the amiibos.

I mean, I got the Link amiibo, because it does stuff with Smash Bros and Hyrule Warriors, and I hear that the next Zelda game will have some functionality with it. And if other amiibos end up interacting specifically with other games that I want or have, then I might pick them up too.

But $13 a pop just for an occasional fancy CPU fighter in Smash? No thanks, I have other things to waste money on.

Well they're good training partners too.

I definitely want Fox as a reminder to get Star Fox Wii U, but the rest of the First 8 I want just so I can line em up with two question marks on either side and take a picture with the caption "Choose your character!" tongue

I like the ability to use any character I want and prepare to fight strong ones for a tourney. It ain't perfect, but it helps somewhat. Right now, Ganondorf's most difficult match-up for me is Samus due to projectiles and Screw Attack. This'll help a bit. In addition, if I want to bring a specifically set up character for a tourney, I can guarantee I'll have the exact moveset I want.

They also look great on a shelf in the meantime, and they're all useful for random rewards in certain games. I can put in all 40-some except Link/Toon Link to get free stuff in Hyrule Warriors. It's very useful~

I need a new shelf to put them on. I set them next to my Wii U and with even just four it's gonna get crowded.

Though really I just need to move out. ;p

Oh, speaking of amiibo, Dankey Kang, the fabulous pink gorilla, has reached level 50! He also sparkles during the entire fight!

You put some kind of weird equipment on him? I've noticed that some random CPU's with customization on will sparkle when they take a lot of damage, and I think it makes them stronger...

Some equipment have status effects, custom fighters wearing certain equipment will sparkle when meeting the conditions of getting said status effect. Its either certain amount of damage or having no damage...or just doesn't require either condition.

But no matter how much damage he has, it won't go away. It's there at 0% and as high as 200% and beyond.

[up]Is that a thing? I didn't know

I held off feeding my Mario when I realized that amiibos never really need to eat when their level maxes out. tongue

Tonight I reset him and trained him back up 50 with my new Link in like an hour. And just now I welcomed my new Samus to my team with three minutes of hard beating by my custom Samus. [lol]

I named my Mario "Amri", my Link "Nik", and my Samus "Uma". Eventually I'm gonna break my Pikachu out and work him up too...

I still really want that Fox. I'm gonna name him Micky. ;p
