Amiibo Are Way Cooler Than You Thought

Super Co-Op Bros James Ferguson discusses Nintendo's alluring, and sometimes controversial, NFC-Based DLC figurines, Amiibo.

I don’t know about that. They’re about as cool as I thought. No more, no less.

[anonymousfan]

Yup, still pretty cool though especially the ones in BotW. You get so many cool perks my favorite being the wolf companion.

[Father__Merrin]

They are actually good quality figurines but not suitable if your over 10 years old

The hell are you talking about?

I got a buddy that has a massive amiibo collection he amassed with his wife and it's impressive as hell! Do you know what site this is? Are you lost do you need help?

[GlutenMifflin]

Lol. I’m over 40 and I love collecting amiibo’s

[CptDville]

Agreed. Just like gaming, it's all for kids except Candy Crush that is made for elders.
(Hope you get the irony)

My Japanese Monster Hunter Amibo are great. The rest are in a pile.

[GlutenMifflin]

The Mario line is incredible. Literally holding something from our digital childhood.

Lol when companies sell you basic plastic kids toys and just call them "amiibo", brilliant marketing aimed at nerds. Great for people that genuinely like them but I don't feel cool keeping a Kirby on my shelf.

Just hope they hold their price further down the road and not end up like Beanie Babies where they are actually worth nothing now. I think the Amiibos look better then the Funko Pops I have more Amiibos then Funko Pops and the only Funkos I have are just the Kurt Cobain ones.
