Nintendo Amiibo Figure: Olimar (No. 44)

With amiibo, you can discover a brand new way to interact with your favorite Nintendo characters and games.

When you touch such a character to the NFC contact point on your Wii U GamePad while playing certain games, the data on the chip is transferred to the game in question and used in a variety of ways. In addition, your character's data is updated as you play. This makes your amiibo unique!

Features:

• Watch your amiibo fight and grow! You can transfer your amiibo's data to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. It will then appear in the game and fight for you. In the process, it develops unique characteristics and abilities, becomes stronger, and learns new techniques. You can even customize special techniques.
• More amiibo - based on the Super Smash Bros. All Stars! amiibo will be released at the same time as Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. You can choose from characters like Mario, Link and many more.
• Connect with a variety of games! In addition to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, you can use amiibo in a variety of other games. The way you use them depends on the game you're playing. In the future, we will release figures of more diverse characters from a wide variety of series.
• Also compatible with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS: With an accessory scheduled for release in 2015, amiibo can also be used with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS. Details on compatible Nintendo 3DS software will be announced in time.
